Therapists in Mountlake Terrace, WA

While open to working with all individuals ages 12 and older, I particularly enjoy working with adolescents and young adults; seeing how self-exploration and skill-building in such formative years can improve relationships, school performance, self-efficacy and overall mental health is truly amazing to see.

My approach to counseling is through the lens of trauma which allows me to be empathetic to the various life events that my clients have experienced and how those events shape their worldview and how they navigate it. I have experience working with clients ages 4-20+ who have experienced physical and sexual abuse, as well as those struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, shame, guilt, and so much more. I have also facilitated teen support groups and parenting support groups for mothers with newborns.

I enjoy helping couples, families and individuals in working on relationship issues and concerns in a wide variety of areas these may be facing or dealing with. Some of the issues I can help with include depression, anxiety, health and medical problems, grief, loss, transitions, adjustment, self-esteem, troubled/at-risk youth or children, marriage and couple relationship issues, step-families, relationship concerns, sexual issues, teen concerns, child development, sibling and extended family concerns, and more. I work with clients on their issues and help them attain their goals. I focus on strengths, successes, emotions, thoughts and feelings in helping them.

Emotions can be both wonderful and scary. Feeling alone in a crowd, or feeling crowded when alone, can happen to anyone. We may ask ourselves: "What am I afraid of?", "Why am I angry?", "Why did I just do that?", or "Why is this happening?" We may also tell ourselves, "I don't deserve this.", "I always mess things up.", or "No one can help me." If you can relate to these types of questions or statements, I may be able to help.

I am a clinical social worker licensed in Washington with over 8 year’s experience working with children, adolescents and adults. I have a person-centered approach and always aim to gather information from all aspects of a person’s life. From childhood to present and integrate diversity and multicultural aspects into treatment. I enjoy supporting clients in their counseling journey while providing them with resources and connecting them to services when needs are not being met. I value the insight of my clients and strive to provide a safe, nurturing environment for them to process whatever concerns they may be feeling.

Many people decide to come to counseling because they feel stuck. Often, this "stuckness" is based on a belief or value that has been imposed by someone else. Sometimes, we need help to break out of an unhelpful "mold." My goal is to build a unique relationship in your life where I can provide an unbiased "outsiders" perspective on the situations and emotions you are dealing with. Life can be good, and life can also be really hard. How do you cope with the hard stuff? I seem to click really well with teens and young adults. I enjoy working with anyone one-on-one and will do my best to provide a safe and accepting environment.

My clients often come to me facing challenges navigating life and trying to manage things like anxiety, stress, substance use issues, and relationships.

You can expect us working together in sessions to develop realistic and attainable goals; things that you would like to see change in your life. Let me help you get there!

Why go to therapy? You might seek therapy when experiencing emotional pain or stress, even confusion about a situation or about yourself. Life challenges can pile up and seem overwhelming. Worry can interfere with relationships, work, and sleep. One goal of therapy is to relieve stress and every session should offer greater understanding of issues and relief in some way. Maybe you feel all alone with your concerns—it’s normal to feel that way. Therapy offers a place of understanding and acceptance, a place to be heard, and for you to feel safe with all of your feelings and thoughts, even those that you might feel are strange.
