Currently accepting new clients. Trauma, attachment, + identity impact people in different ways. Do you often feel detached or numb? Do you avoid thinking about the past or self-medicate? Are you concerned about your parenting? Do you often find yourself in difficult relationships? Are you concerned about your memory? Do you feel sad or anxious a lot?

Do you feel incomplete or want meaning in life? If you answered yes to any-I believe I could be a good fit for you.

You've been in therapy before and your life has really improved, but something still lingers... that thing that you're worried will "never change." Perhaps you've struggled to feel served or represented by the majority of the current therapy industry because of your personal or political values. You're self-motivated and know how to engage in the work, and now you've delved into spiritual growth with curiosity and are looking to integrate that into therapy. You're not interested in identifying with a diagnosis, labels, or symptoms... you're on a quest to resolve a problem with the way you think and feel, so you can be WHOLE.

I am an LGBTQIA+ provider and love working with adults who are ready to dig deep and make healthy changes to live their best lives. Whether you are LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) or Empath, or label yourself as "outside the box" I am ready to help you see your beautiful strengths and empower you with the tools to help change unhealthy patterns in order to create your best life. Clients that have sought my services have reported that I was helpful in processing their trauma, identifying self-sabotaging behaviors, moving thru grief, re-inventing themselves post divorce or in simply learning how to live in the Now.

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.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) has been called "The Doubting Disease," and is characterized by unwanted and intrusive doubts, fears, “irrational” worries, and at its worst, terror and psychological torment. People with OCD experience doubts and fears which usually focus on whatever they most care about or highly value, such as their most important relationships, their moral character, their health or the health and well-being of those they care about. Sufferers use mental or behavioral rituals that provide temporary relief from the obsession, which become compulsions that can be painful in and of themselves.

I believe that every client has the potential for health and wellness regardless their situation. I have dealt with many issues including, mood, thoughts, anxiety, attention, eating, gender, sexuality, spirituality, substance use, and compulsive behaviors. I want to meet you where you are. While they may not be ready to make immediate changes, planting the seeds of health and wellness are my ultimate goals. I work with adults and youth at least 11 years old.

Are you seeking peace-of-mind, purpose, and fulfillment in life?

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of a Washington. I believe that counseling is experiential, that it can and should be transformative. I use an ecclectic approach in my work with clients. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, bipolar, grief/loss, trauma and PTSD, chronic pain and life transitions. I have been working in the mental health field since 2008.

Therapy is a collaborative process where I try to help clients find what isn't working in their lives and help them "try on" different ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. Therapy can at times be a "trial and error" where I provide coping skills for my clients and see if what I provided is useful. Although I make it a point to use evidence-based practices, I also take into consideration the context of my client's life and the current world climate when exploring issues and what would be most effective in their path for change.

Are you struggling with a challenging life transition or going through a particularly difficult time in the journey of your life? Are you feeling overwhelmed by the aging process - your own or that of someone you care for? Would you benefit from talking with a compassionate therapist to help you get unstuck, expand your repertoire, and find the courage to make healthy changes?

You have come to the right place if you are looking for an experienced professional who takes your well being very seriously. I have worked in the mental health field since 1994 and have been licensed since 2003. I specialize in working with veterans, medical personnel, civil servants and educators, among others. I have served my community as a crisis responder, and as a medical and forensic social worker helping people struggling with medical challenges, anxiety and depression. I invite you to send an email if you are interested in a 15 minute consultation.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is unique and sacred. This is a space for you to feel safe and free from judgement to foster growth and change throughout many aspects of your life. I am here to assist in the process of self-discovery so that you can live the best life possible with circumstances that might be hindering you.

My hope is to help my clients envision the version of themselves they want to be and discover their unrealized strengths to maximize the change they want for their lives. I consider it an honored privilege to sit with someone and make important connections and create goals to get where they want to be.

Entering mental health and/or addictions recovery is a significant life transition, whether you are taking this on for yourself or supporting a loved one. I can offer you support in conjunction with your work in a self-help group, during or following treatment, or even to help you deepen your recovery beyond abstinence and/or medication management. When someone struggles with mental health and/or substance abuse, it can affect their friends and families too (even after they get help and/or when entering recovery). I can help loved ones who are seeking therapy for themselves so they get the support they need.

I enjoy seeing clients from all walks of life and have a deep respect for anyone willing to take the leap to begin their healing. Whether you are seeking therapy for new positive coping skills, processing current stressors, or simply needing support- with a collaborative approach to treatment, I believe that change is possible.
