Hello! Thanks for checking out my page. I have over 20 years experience and offer both in-person therapy in Spokane, WA, and telehealth throughout Washington state. You might be like most of my clients - a normally well adjusted, intelligent person, struggling with anxiety or depression. For people like you, counseling really works. If you try counseling, you will know if its working within the first 3-5 sessions. Some people need just a handful of sessions to get back to their old selves, others choose to stay involved to deepen their growth. Whichever you choose is up to you, but taking the first step is most important.

Lately, life feels like an endless grind. You have lots of responsibilities and you don't see them vanishing anytime soon. You can identify with some or all of these feelings – depressed, anxious, emotionally volatile, flat, heavy, exhausted, nervous, depleted, unmotivated. It’s likely that you’ve tried a number of different things to help yourself – self-help books, “wellness” podcasts, yoga, medication, even therapy. While these things may have helped somewhat, you still find yourself struggling to feel joy, ease and contentment on a consistent basis. In fact, you hate to admit it but hopelessness is a familiar friend.

Our patient's want freedom. They want to reclaim their dignity and restore life balance. Our staff are proficient in a variety of different approaches such as CBT, Affirmative Therapy, DBT, and EMDR. Our areas of practice including substance use disorders, co-occurring disorders, major depressive disorder, trauma, anxiety and panic disorders, bipolar type 1 and 2, couples, PTSD, children, teens, and many LGBTQ related needs. We also proudly offer medication management for our community members.

These days, it can feel like life is moving too fast for us to keep up. This is made all the more challenging when we struggle with such things as unhealthy relationships, intense negative feelings, poor self-image, or trauma. You may worry that getting help means enduring an uncomfortable process that may not result in any notable change. I believe that therapy does not have to be painful to be successful, that it can be infused with moments of laughter and insight. It is about determining why we are stuck as well as figuring out how to create and maintain practical positive changes.

Healing looks different for everyone. I believe that you are the expert of your own experiences and I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey. I have worked with individuals experiencing symptoms of substance abuse, adjustment disorder, codependency, trauma, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, as well as other mental health illnesses.

My ideal clients are individuals, families, or couples. I work with people who are looking to deal with areas of depression, anxiety, men's issues, couple's counseling, addiction, interpersonal conflict, grief, life transitions and more. My goal is for you to find that promised hope in your life and to give you the tools to walk your life path so that you can experience peace, hope, and joy

My ideal client would be searching for a counselor who is genuine, empathetic, unconditionally holds them in positive regard, and can connect to their experiences. They would have a goal of learning new skills, working on behavioral and cognitive change, and are willing to look at multiple solutions to achieve their goals. They would want to strive for success as they see it and want support in removing any barriers for a better and healthier future.

I believe that counseling can be a space for individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors for self-reflection and self-growth. A place where individuals can safely process their life experiences while also gaining a better understanding of why they may have certain thought processes and behaviors. I have experience working with clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief/loss, self-harm, suicidal ideations, substance use, and different life changes.

By addressing troubling thoughts and feelings, self-sabotaging behaviors, and traumas, life can be made more manageable, productive, and fulfilling. Feelings such as grief, shame, anxiety, sadness, and anger often signal that something needs to change. Listening to and working with these feelings—some that consume us and others that gently nudge us—can move us forward. Through this, we sometimes discover that our everyday dilemmas are part of larger patterns waiting to be resolved as a whole.

Whether it is situational stressors or more long-term issues that you are dealing with such as a chronic or pervasive mental illness, let me assist you as you walk the path of life. We can identify where there is room for healthy changes and develop a well-rounded supply of coping strategies that are tailored to you specifically to deal with those issues that cannot be changed. As a therapist I believe that each person is an individual with individual needs that must be addressed from their perspectives and abilities. I utilize several evidenced based practices to help you on your journey.

We are accepting new clients. I specialize in helping individuals and families reach and stay in recovery from anxiety and other mood disorders, substance misuse, trauma, relationship conflicts and issues surrounding grief and loss.

Greetings! Some of the demographics I have served have included inpatient and outpatient care, private practice, substance abuse issues, psychotic spectrum disorders, gender identity issues, personality disorders, sex addiction, family and relationship issues, depression, anxiety, PTSD, Spirituality, and men’s issues. Some of the experiences that have contributed to my professional identity and approach to mental health treatment are my formal education at Pensacola Christian College where I received a BA in Pastoral Ministry and Liberty University where I received a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Life is full of complexities. The most powerful thing that we can tap into is living a heart-centered life, learning about our own inner guidance. There are many internal and external barriers that get in the way of this. We do not have to navigate these things alone.

I have experience working with adolescents, children on the spectrum of Autism, suicidal and homicidal ideation, and psychosis. My approach is a good fit for those struggling with depression, anxiety, low-self-esteem, self-criticism, grief, relationship distress, and life transitions.

A strong therapeutic alliance between my clients and I is marked by the trust and openness in which sacred moments emerge.
