Hi, my name is Scott, I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist with over twenty years of clinical experience in mental health and addiction treatment. Whether you're struggling with work, school, relationships, family, addiction, or behavioral concerns…I am here to work with you, to walk alongside and empower you to live your fullest life and be your healthiest self.

Are you ready to change your life? I help people uncover the strength and motivation that lie beneath familiar habits and patterns. Together we develop new ways of looking at your life and new choices for you. Yes, you need to be willing to bravely face things that are uncomfortable or stuck in your life, but we do that as just one part of turning problems into opportunity and turning opportunity into success. Anxiety, anger, depression, and relationship problems -- they are all experiences we have; they do not have to define you or stop you.

Most of us are all too aware of our problems. What we lack is the ability to find and maintain the kind of understanding and self acceptance needed to transform our obstacles into the lives and relationships we desire. Instead we stay stuck in uncomfortable feelings and thoughts, ineffective communication, old hurts, and even addictive patterns. To help you clarify and stay focused on your aspirations and solutions, while easing your way through emotional blocks, is probably the greatest gift I can offer.

As an experienced coach and counselor with a focus in neuroscience, I specialize in helping trauma survivors break free from the grip of their past and reclaim their lives. I know that no matter what you've been through, you have the power to change your thoughts, beliefs, and ultimately, your life. In my sessions, I utilize a combination of visualizations, inner conversations, and revision techniques to help you uncover the limiting beliefs and emotional blocks that are holding you back. If you're ready to create real transformation in your life, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

Children frequently experience anxiety just as adults do. All children can feel nervous, frightened or worried about different things or situations, so how does a parent know when to get some help for their child? Children's symptoms of anxiety can differ from adults and they may not have the words for what they are experiencing.

Hi! My name is Christi. Overwhelmed, exhausted or anxious? Struggling to set boundaries and communicate effectively? Tired of trying to measure up to what's on everyone else's social media page? Well, I commend you for taking the first steps toward a happier, more peaceful and balanced life! Making the choice to create positive change can be difficult, but it's well worth the effort.

My goal is to support individuals looking to explore their relationship with substances, treat trauma and disordered eating, identify ways to manage depression and anxiety, guide individuals through life transitions, and to support an individuals unique recovery process. As a person with lived experience, I offer a unique perspective in the therapeutic relationship that normalizes experiencing life challenges as well as life successes. I am a proponent for mindfulness, pranayama, and spirituality on the healing journey and I hold those approaches while also advocating for self-defined recovery.

Life is hard enough and you do not have to go through this journey of life alone. Allow me to meet you where you are at and help be your guide in this amazing journey called life. Together we will find healing through proven models of treatment that I have been formal trained and practiced in for ten years.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Alaska and I am certified in Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I enjoy working with individuals who are coping with trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, grief and loss, and more. I work alongside clients to help them identify their ideal outcomes as they navigate through obstacles and learn new skills to achieve a more balanced, fulfilling, life.

Thank you for being here. Sometimes we feel uncertain about the direction of our lives or feel stuck in our career paths, relationships, sexuality, identity, and emotionality. There is a desire for change and feels like there's something missing; perhaps the spark you used to feel. Sometimes, stress, trauma, anxiety, and other internal and external factors are acting as roadblocks and you have little energy or knowledge to push through it alone. I would love to collaborate with you in navigating these challenges through internal exploration with focus on insight oriented approach and coaching to assist in your behavioral change.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative and hopeful. I have extensive experience working with individuals dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, interpersonal violence and complex relational crises. It can be a challenge to remain present and functional in life when dealing with unresolved confusion and pain. Therapy can create space to view what’s obscured by stress/fear and develop capacity to attend to it. I offer talk therapy, somatic interventions (including EMDR, mindfulness activities & visualization), and reflective practice - there are many paths that can lead to reconnection and joy.

Are you struggling with unexpected life transitions? Is your depression deepening, or your anxiety or habits preventing you from moving forward in life? Is your zest for life depleted, and impacting your relationships, work, or community connections? Do you long for ambition, purpose, clarity or peace that you're stumbling to create for yourself? Are you ready to explore patterns and habits to identify ways you can shift to create a greater sense of awareness, stability and authenticity? Let's look at how we can do this together.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is to begin to understand your own story. When we dig in, we can begin to make connections between our past experiences and our present day situation. Because of our universal need to belong and feel connected, when our relationship aren't going well, it can feel very unsettling. If you feel hopeless, unmotivated, or unable to manage intense emotions, know that you don't have to keep feeling this way. I can work with you to help you cope, find meaning, and renewed purpose in life.

As a trans and queer person I am particularly passionate about providing LGBT+ clients with a therapist that not just accepts them but understands the nuances, difficulties, and particularities of living as a queer and/or trans person. I bring a recognition of how systems of oppression impact our life as we live as a part these marginalized communities. I can also help people who have experienced religious trauma to process the events and to form a spirituality or humanism that works for you. I also can be of help in treating depression, anxiety, self-harm, and managing grief, life changes, and ADHD.

As a researcher and counselor, I am honored to hold the information and wisdom pertaining to creating and sustaining optimal wellbeing and satisfaction in life. I consider my counseling practice to be the space in which this knowledge is shared, unfolding as part of a collaborative process that is unique for each individual clients' journey. By shining a light on the "here and now" (inner dialogue), I work with my clients to acknowledge and understand the patterns of thinking, behaving, and feeling that may be causing stagnation (and pain), so that we can then move from where one is currently at, to where one wants to be.

Although I began my clinical work providing Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and other 3rd-generation, skill-based modalities, what I really love is to work with people who want to dive deep and process issues that lie beneath the surface. If you have had previous experiences with therapy but have found only temporary relief, and would like to go to the next level of processing, I would like to help you open into compassion and liberate yourself from suffering.

As an agency we have been supporting people via online sessions, with everything that falls “outside the box” for many years. Well our whole world just changed with this pandemic, and everything now falls under that category. Let us help you navigate these uncharted waters. No matter what challenge this all is bringing up for you let us support you in finding a way through this and finding your inner strength during this time.

She/her: It is important to me to support self-discovery and spiritual growth. I welcome anxiety, depression, distress, grief, shame, trauma, and dis-ease as invaluable teachers guiding us to wisdom and awakening. I have become a student of grief and how not grieving separates us from ourselves and others. I love watching people embrace grief and find a greater sense of belonging and return to life. We grieve what we have lost, what we weren’t given, and things that happened to us, our loved ones, the earth, and our communities. Alongside grief, I have become curious about how to live authentically in order to die peacefully.
