"Are you chronically disappointed? Dissatisfied with your job or relationship? Bored with your life? Feeling that you are not reaching your potential? Worried all the time about getting it all done or being good enough? Is fear holding you back from being your best self and having all you want in life? Are you feeling inadequate and self-critical?

"If you experience insomnia, nightmares, flashbacks, fatigue, sudden anger, anxiety or depression and feel it is time to get control back, call me. I strive to create a supportive environment and work with you to come up with a plan that addresses your concerns where you are right now. I believe everyone has strengths and that sometimes people become so overwhelmed they lose sight of themselves. I'm a guide that helps you find your way back and encourages you to keep moving forward."

"I counsel couples and families through a variety of life-stages, helping them find well-being in their changing roles. Dedicated to working through the entire therapeutic process with you and those you love, I create a time and place for couples and families to explore their challenges and find acceptance, appreciation and gratitude for each family member. I believe that acceptance in the face of struggle and transformation is the first step for change and healing. I offer clear and compassionate guidance to you so that you may become gentle, kind witnesses of yourselves and others."

"My primary goal as a psychologist is to help the client clarify their presenting problem and work with them towards reducing their suffering and enhancing their quality of life. I work with both adults and adolescents that may be experiencing a variety of challenges including anxiety, depression, anger, and post-traumatic stress. I provide psychological assessments for a variety of complaints, and ground my counseling work in scientific, evidence-based interventions such as Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Clinical Hypnosis, and various mindfulness-based interventions."

"I work from a person-centered approach that draws from other theoretical techniques designed to address your individual needs and goals. The process of counseling is to understand you as a unique person; explore and gain insight into your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and behavior; and enhance quality of life by implementing parts of the counseling process into your daily living. Our therapeutic relationship will be collaborative and we will work together towards setting and meeting your counseling goals."

""What is within you that longs to come forth, what waits for you to say Yes?" In my work with clients we work together as a team to create a mutual, shared space of compassion, caring and healing. In this space, problems are explored together, losses and hurts are held together. Where there is trauma, it is transformed through bodily-centered somatic therapy and EMDR. I bring a wide array of therapeutic techniques, from ancient wisdom traditions to cutting edge neurobiology, to support your healing and provide skills for reaching your goals. Whatever difficulties you face - healing is the rule, not the exception. "

"I see individuals with anxiety, depression, phobias, and with histories of trauma, (including service members returning from Afghanistan and Iraq). I use EMDR combined with other client-centered therapies. What is most important, however, is that your therapy is tailored to your individual needs and does not follow a strict set of guidelines. Using a humanistic and transpersonal approach, we explore how longstanding beliefs and values affect how you feel about yourself and about the choices you make. We will identify and eliminate your "stumbling blocks" so that you feel in control of your destiny."

"**EMDR Specialist** Experiencing self-doubt? Sleepless nights? Feelings of insecurity? A nagging sense of not being good enough? Through EMDR therapy (and other psychotherapy approaches) I can help you resolve issues regarding trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, and life issues that may seem overwhelming. I believe therapy should be a safe, trusting place to explore and heal undiscovered parts of ourselves, or parts that are wounded and in pain. Together, you and I will work collaboratively to guide your healing journey. The neuro-plasticity of the brain is amazing. Let distress melt away and step into a more fulfilling life."

"As a practical, interactive, solution-focused therapist, my treatment approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. With sensitivity and compassion, I help clients find solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues."

"Are you going through a rough patch in your life or relationship? Are you and your spouse or partner struggling to successfully parent your children? Are you getting divorced or remarried and need help getting your children through the changes? Let me help. I work with individuals, couples, and families in transition or crisis. I believe everyone is the expert in his or her own life. I will respect your life experiences and help you and your family through this challenging leg of your journey."

"My ideal client is one who is invested and motivated to work in therapy. I love working with individuals and couples. I believe that it takes a great deal of courage to come into counseling. I am gentle but direct in my approach. I do not want you to waste your time and money on useless therapy that does not help you change the things that you want to change. It is important to me that you walk away from therapy feeling better about yourself and believing that you have the effective tools to help you improve your life."

"I work with individuals, couples, and families to address issues ranging from relational conflict to the broad spectrum of mental health. Through an eclectic approach utilizing cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems-based modalities, I explore current problems within the social, cultural, and environmental context of life experiences and the impact these experiences have on both physical and mental health. I often approach the presenting issue as a symptom and endeavor to assist clients in developing an understanding of the function that problem serves and how to achieve that same function with more desired outcomes."

"I am a licensed clinical psychologist and marriage and family therapist with over 30 years of experience working with children, teens, young adults, adults and families. I specialize in evaluating and treating clients with ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, anxiety problems, and school problems.

"The goal of psychotherapy is to make important positive changes in your life. Research demonstrates that Evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy can successfully reduce stress, anxiety, worry, anger, and depression. Positive behavioral change increases optimism by adding healthy activities and people to your life. Evidence-based treatment allows you to understand and manage how your mood/emotions, thoughts/beliefs, behavior/lifestyle, and body works together. The emphasis of treatment is learning a variety of skills to successfully manage your emotions, your behavior, feel better, and improve the quality of your life."

"I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, school and relational issues. I offer services to adults, and also to children and teens, ages 6-16. I maintain a separate office space called Play Lab Northwest, which is interactive and play-oriented for children. My orientation is grounded in depth psychology, but I work with an innovative approach, as I integrate established therapies including: Jungian, somatic, play, art, relational, and cognitive-behavioral. I personalize psychotherapy for each client. I believe therapy should be positive, fun, and oriented to personal growth."
