You are on the verge of taking a brave step. Perhaps you have encountered a new challenge, or have realized you need a new way of coping with an old problem. Often this is a moment of crisis, and at the same time, an opportunity to learn and to grow. I am passionate about working with clients who are coping with major life changes. If a medical condition (e.g. brain injury, post-concussion syndrome, stroke, spinal injury, chronic dizziness/pain, chronic illness or critical illness/COVID) has affected you or your loved one, or if your quality of life is impacted by treatable conditions such as PTSD or anxiety, we may be a good fit.

As you are in the process of looking for a therapist, you may already be half-way through resolving your issues. It is said that client's readiness and willingness to make changes is the strongest indicator of successful therapy outcome. As a therapist, I will accompany you in the journey of actualizing your fullest potential by assisting you to develop internal and external resources such as the sense of freedom, choices, healthy sense of self, responsibility, managing life balance, and strong support systems and relationships.

I help clients to feel like they are in the driver's seat of their lives by facilitating clarity amidst the chaos of distractions that impede engagement in their present experience. I believe the fundamental vehicle of change is the relationship between the counselor and the client. For me, therapy is a collaborative approach in which the therapist helps clients confront issues by staying present and exploring their narratives and relationships through different dynamics and perspectives.

As a therapist, my counseling approach is integrative and evidenced-based. I have training and experience in a variety of different therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, client-centered therapy, LGBTQIA counseling, and sports and fitness therapy. This diverse background allows me to integrate the counseling approach best suited for your unique needs.

As a therapist my goal is to help individuals to create positive environments where they can learn and build from their strengths to thrive. You are your life expert; I want to help you reach goals by tailoring interventions that can help you achieve those goals.

Do you need help managing pain and living more fully? With a primary focus on managing chronic pain or other chronic illnesses, I work collaboratively to help people see where they can increase control and connect to what matters most to them. I specialize in rehabilitation psychology, pain psychology, and supporting people in their recovery after injury and/or with chronic medical conditions. Often people work with me to address experiences of trauma, grief, and loss related to injuries and health conditions. I use evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

As a clinical psychologist I work with clients who are attempting to change unrewarding or isolating patterns of relating to others, or struggling to modify unproductive thoughts or feelings. The process of therapy as I practice it relies on developing a trusting and collaborative relationship between client and therapist. It is in this atmosphere of support, encouragement and respect that areas of concern and patterns of behavior can be understood and changed. I work with both individuals and couples. I have advanced training in treating depression, helping couples work productively in relationships, modification of addictive behaviors, and cognitive assessment.

I support creatives in maximizing energy for their passions while managing challenges like anxiety, depression, or day jobs. I support individuals who are navigating complex life transitions, and help them explore new ways to cope with challenging situations and relationships. I see therapy as an active and reflective partnership, a safe place to learn tools for living. I provide Clinical Group and Individual Supervision to Social Workers pursuing Licensure in WA State.

We all find ourselves in circumstances at one time or another that call for adjusting to change or making decisions, whether it's charting a path through grief and loss, developmental transitions, job loss, recovering from trauma or the challenges of parenting. Therapy can be helpful in sorting through confusing thoughts and feelings, gaining insight, establishing a course of action amongst different choices, and building confidence through experiencing a deeper understanding of yourself, all in the context of a caring relationship.

I feel passionate about working with people and helping them find their own strengths and building self-esteem. I have extensive experience working with teens, adults, and parents. Using sensitivity and compassion, I can help you bring resolution to a wide range of life challenges/psychological issues. I approach my work from an interactive, relationally focused standpoint, finding the most effective way to build a relationship with you and build rapport.

This time has been isolating and life alternating to say the least. Many of us are left with a feeling of overwhelm as we are separated from one another and cannot participate in the lifestyle routines that once helped us to feel grounded. I have been working with many clients this year to find a source of balance and inner peace when so much of the world has shut down and become unavailable to us. From anxiety, depression and Pandemic PTSD to low motivation and deflation. Feelings of isolation, loneliness and despondency are a few of the many issues I work with in my clients at the moment. Let me help you build your new world!

My goal in therapy is to create a safe space where you can be honest and real. It takes great courage to seek help. To heal, grow and thrive people need a truly non-judgmental space in which to explore strengths, weaknesses, fears, past, present, and hopes for the future. I am real, kind, honest, and trustworthy. My therapy practice is rooted in an anti-oppressive, anti-racist, harm-reduction, trauma-informed, relational and person centered approach. I aim to create a safe space for clients to explore their identities and build self-efficacy.

I am dedicated to providing supportive, healthy, caring services for people in pain. I understand that betrayal, trauma, abandonment create a deep emotional wound that is frightening to explore and distressing to consider. It is possible to heal by finding you own integrity and peace. I believe that the true aim of healing is to assist the client in bringing harmony to their soul, mind, and body.
