Tasha is a gentle and compassionate soul with a deep rooted passion for helping others along their healing journeys. She is dedicated to making sure each person feels safe and heard in their treatment sessions as social, economic, systemic and environmental determinants to health affect everyone differently. She views the mind, body and spirit as interconnected pieces of a whole system that often effect and alter one another in subtle and not so subtle ways. Her specialties include treating psycho-emotional concerns, chronic pain management and LGBTQIA+ care. Her gentle needling style is grounded in Japanese techniques and is ideal for those with hyperactive nervous systems, children, and those who may be a little needle shy.

Tasha received her Masters in Acupuncture and East Asian Medicine (including Chinese Herbal Medicine) from the Seattle Institute of East Asian Medicine. She is honored to practice and share this medicine with people at Sagelight and hopes that through her treatments, each person is able to connect with their intricate internal systems and their capacity for self-healing. Her approach is to not only help patients rid themselves of dis-ease, but to remove the root cause of these imbalances, leading patients to a life of thriving rather than just surviving.

Prior to pursuing a career in acupuncture, Tasha grew up in Colorado where she spent most of her time connecting with her community and getting outside. She believes many of life’s questions can be answered by nature so she can usually be found hiking with her partner and her pup, exploring the city, or paddle boarding on a nice sunny day. In the colder months she will most likely be hibernating with a good fantasy or non-fiction book and a cup of coffee in hand.
