Therapists in Island County, WA

Have you drawn your last straw? I work with couples in distress regarding sexual issues, chronic conflict, and diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD. My focus in couple therapy is to understand and give space to even the ugliest parts of you and your partner that have been preventing the connection you once felt. As we contextualize parts and patterns in your experience, we can uncover the stuck-ness that is keeping you from feeling the satisfaction and safety you seek. While I see many wonderful, burned-out mothers and wives, I also have extensive experience with courageous men who also enter the "feeling" space.

My goal is to assist my clients with healing from old wounds, coping skills, adjusting to life transitions, goal setting, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and provide encouragement and compassion along the way. My passion is listening to others, offering support and empowering you to reach your goals whatever they may be.  I have an extensive background working with all ages but my focus is working with women and men between ages 18-55 yrs of age. I genuinely enjoy working with clients to help find hope, peace and acceptance of themselves and difficult situations.

Sometimes you just need a safe and confidential space to sort it all out. Life and relationships can challenge us to our very limits as we try to love other people and hold onto our own sense of self at the same time. It can feel overwhelming to navigate the emotions, interaction cycles, and patterns at play in relationships. As difficult as these challenges are, they are ultimately the key to our personal growth and development. I work with couples who want a better partnership, and want to feel heard, valued, and understood. I help them find genuine connection in their emotional, mental, spiritual, and intimate relationship.

Welcome! We are all emotional and relational beings so naturally our greatest happiness and heartache often come from our relationships and are ongoing throughout our lives. Experiencing anxiety, depression, feelings of being stuck, loneliness, spiritual challenges, struggling with communication issues, moving through discouragement, and unmet expectations in yourself and/or loved ones, is not a sign of failure or weakness. These experiences simply remind us we are human and provide opportunities for growth. The choice to do something different is yours. I welcome the walk with you on your journey of hope and transformation.

Each person has the ability to learn, grow and make necessary changes in their personal life, relationships, and situations. We aim at exploring and understanding ways of thinking and patterns of behavior one may be completely unaware of, resulting in repetitive patterns of behavior that ultimately lead to dissatisfaction and emotional turmoil in a person's life. We are driven by a belief that each individual has potential to grow from their life experiences, whether it be good or bad. As a group of highly qualified and trained therapists, we are passionate about solving critical challenges and inspiring personal growth.

I work alongside couples who are either in distress or are starting to feel the distance and conflict between them overshadowing the good. So many partnerships and marriages are worn down by stress and conflict around work/life/family balancing, sexual differences, parenting, in-laws, differences in values or beliefs, and all the ways we don’t show up for each other as anticipated. I create a safe place and ample time for you to share what you need, hope for, miss, and crave in your relationship. We will work through hard topics, recurring struggles, and old hurts in ways that will help you each feel seen, heard, and understood.

All of us experience times of transition, change, and difficulty in our lives. I believe that the challenges and transitions of life create opportunities for reflection, growth, and positive change.

I will work together with you to discover your inner strengths and create goals that help you find peace and fulfillment in life.
