About
Our Counselors
At Stories of Hope, we recruit counselors that share our values of social justice, inclusion, professionalism, cultural humility, and continuous curiosity about the stories of our clients.
You can review the profiles and feel free to call or email the counselor that you think could fit your particular needs.
We will do our best to provide an appointment with the counselor of your choice, but sometimes it depends on our availability and we will go with you through the process of finding the best option at that time.
One of the intentions of Stories of Hope is to inspire new generations of therapists through professional and committed supervision, where relational ethics, multicultural humility, and compassionate perspective guide their practice.
Our interns and associates come from diverse personal, cultural, and professional backgrounds since we honor and know how diverse perspectives benefit our world and contribute to finding creative solutions.
They are all supervised by Rosy De Prado, LMFT, AAMFT approved Supervisor Candidate, and with 20 years of experience in therapy and as a faculty.

(They/Them)
I come to counseling work by way of my own stories of suffering and hope, and it is my deepest honor to assist others who are seeking relief. As a therapist and human being, the story I hope to live into is one of co-liberation. I view my role as collaborative - together we can work to address the problems you are encountering, in ways that will work for you, and uncover opportunities for empowerment and a more meaningful life. May all beings find relief, and may we move toward living in the stories we prefer.
Therapy Approach: Narrative, Person-centered, Emotionally Focused, Mindfulness-based, and Sex Therapy.
I am available for In-person and Telehealth sessions with adults and youth.
I am currently a Clinical Intern in the Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (CMHC) program at Antioch University Seattle, where I received my Certificate in Sex Therapy.

Bailey Adams
(She/Her)
I believe that our identities are art. They are so beautiful and unique; sometimes they are messy, other times they are tidy. Some parts may be old, some parts may feel newer. Some elements we are trying to embody or develop while others seem to stick around no matter what. There are so many elements that make up who we are, and sometimes it can be a lot to hold all on our own.
