Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Arnada, Vancouver, WA

Every individual is unique in their own way, and this uniqueness can also bring about different challenges to how one might navigate through their own therapy. One might not know what they need, or even what to expect when they first come into therapy, and that's okay. I'm here to help you discover just what it is "YOU" need. I believe each person has their own path to healing, and not everyone responds to the same things in the same way. "Our yesterday's do not have to predict our tomorrows, when we still have today" -Wendy

Reflecting on my own counseling practice, I have discovered the overwhelming strength and healing power of human connectedness which is an essential cornerstone of my therapeutic counseling relationships. Life is a journey filled with both opportunities and challenges. When daily life and/or life transitions seem too overwhelming, the guidance and support provided from a trusted professional who is empathetic and objective can be informative, empowering, and restorative. I use cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic interventions to help clients discover how conscious and unconscious thoughts impact emotions and behaviors. In addition, I draw from a variety of counseling theories to meet each client's individual needs.

For many years I struggled with shame and doubt about who I was, often feeling lost and hopeless. I would exercise my feelings through control or passivity in relations with others. It wasn't until I received help from a counselor that I started my journey of healing that lead to my discovery of an authentic self who could practice healthy relationships, acceptance, love, and feel worthy from the inside out. At that point I chose to become a Counselor so as to assist others in their journeys of self discovery.

Welcome! People usually find psychotherapy when their old ways of coping no longer work and they get stuck in dysfunctional patterns or relationships. Therapy is a place where you can increase insight into those patterns, develop new tools and have more fulfilling relationships. I am a multi-faceted practitioner who believes in meeting people where they are at, and building on the strengths and resources that you already possess. It is possible to find joy in the darkest of places.
