Longview, WA 98632 (Online Only)
My ideal client is someone who desires to figure out how to be more comfortable in their own skin. By this, I mean, a person who feels that something is "off" in their mental and or emotional life and would like help exploring this in a non-judgmental, safe space. I believe we are called to peace and joy and yet so many of us struggle with fear, sorrow, regret, anger, anxiety, depression, trauma.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Washington with 30 years professional work experience. I am ethically and personally committed to helping you meet your personal goals. Change is hard, but it is my belief that every person has the capacity for growth. I work to meet you where you are and create a safe space for hope and change to begin. If you need help identifying what you want to be different in your life, or if you know what you want but haven't figured out how to do it, I'd like to help. I view it as a privilege to help others along their path.

Strength-Based Therapists
How does strength-based therapy work?
During strength-based therapy sessions, the therapist will ask about an individual’s experiences of stress, pain, or trauma with the goal of orienting the client to view themselves as a survivor rather than a victim, and focusing on their strengths rather than on their weaknesses. In framing a client’s personal narrative along these lines, the therapist and client work together to identify existing skills that can be harnessed.
Is strength-based therapy evidence-based?
Strength-based therapy is an evidence-based treatment that has been studied extensively and shown to be effective across domains. The treatment has been found to be particularly effective in helping individuals who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns. Strength-based therapy has been used by therapists to help clients for more than 60 years.
How long does strength-based therapy last?
There’s no precise timeline for strength-based therapy. The duration of treatment depends on the individual’s specific needs and goals and the severity of their concerns. Some individuals may find they achieve their therapeutic goals quickly, while others might benefit from ongoing support and guidance in order to continue progressing.
How effective is strength-based therapy?
Clinical research and decades of practice have shown strength-based therapy to be an effective treatment to improve mental health and well-being for many conditions. The treatment can engender a sense of connection and collaboration between the therapist and the individual, fostering a positive therapeutic relationship. For individuals with narcissistic tendencies, strength-based therapy may be less effective, as the focus on the individual’s strengths may undermine the work needed to honestly assess the challenges the individual faces.
