LIMITED AVAILABILITY & ONLY ACCEPTING NEW CASH PAY CLIENTS: Individual & Group Counseling, Coparenting, Parent Coach, Parenting Coordination & Collaborative Law.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in Washington State, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in California, I enjoy working with blue collar individuals, first responders, active and former military, college athletes, and adults of all ages who are seeking help navigating the struggles life throws at us. My ideal client is anyone looking to face and overcome life’s stressors, depression, anxiety, anger issues, addictions, and/or crisis of faith.

I work with those who struggle with anger. Often times the anger is brought on by unmet expectations and merely a symptom of deeper issues under the surface. It's my job to metaphorically stand in a place you can not see, and point you in the right direction as to the cause of what is contributing to the anger. By doing so, you can receive insight that will enrich your life and change it for the better.

Going through loss or life transition? We need lots of self-compassion so we can heal and find a better approach to our lives and relationships. I offer a non-judgmental space to be open about your struggles and explore what it means to live in your values. It is through our common humanity that I relate to my clients. I believe the struggles we face also occur in the systems of race, class, gender, sexuality, age, ability, religion, and national identity.

Hello! Life gets so hectic and stressful at times. It seems everyone has it all together except for you. You have a desire to make changes but aren't sure where to begin. Good news! You already have everything inside of you that you need, and we can work together to bring out those positive qualities and put them to use. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in mental health. I support people with anxiety, depression, personality disorders, bipolar disorders, psychotic symptoms, and PTSD. I have worked extensively with clients from a variety of backgrounds and cultures. I am excited to meet you and hear your story.

Clients who work with me feel empowered and reassured on their first visit, and they continue with me, because they notice changes happening. For the past 20 years, I've worked in private and group practices, providing counseling and other services to people from many different walks of life. I help people re-evaluate, become closer to a loved one, process difficult decisions or transitions and grieve significant losses. I enjoy helping people become more truthful about themselves and live with integrity. I fiercely protect the privacy and confidentiality of my clients and provide a private, safe setting for our work together.

Accepting clients. To survive in a traumatized, ego-centric culture filled with counterfeit images, we pay a steep price - trauma & pain in our disconnected bodies, loneliness & broken-heartedness in our relationships, an unmet longing for passionate, meaningful engagement with the world. Crisis, illness, pain, suffering & despair become the catalyst for change, awakening our yearning for a more courageous, authentic, embodied life. Speaking to us through symptoms, grief, images, longings, dreams- the soul calls- beckoning us into the unknown, asking us to surrender what no longer serves us. I help people navigate this wilderness.
