I believe everyone has a drive to move forward in life in a constructive way. A desire to be more tomorrow than we are today. But the process can be trying. Tracking our daily responsibilities can leave us feeling exhausted. Choices can be overwhelming. Ruminating thoughts from anxiety and anger can make focus a real challenge. The way we coped when we were younger, might not work anymore. However, possibility does exist. Having a space for reflection might be helpful in figuring out what the changes in your life mean to you, and how you want to move forward.
I practice Solution Focus and Existential Therapy. Modalities that locate control of your life within you. Practicing in that way allows me to listen without taking responsibility or trying to shape your life. To hear what worked before, what your strengths are, and what's important to you. The things that are confidence building in times of doubt.
I have over 20 years of experience supporting people in engaging in the struggle. I work with issues such as anxiety, loss of meaning, depression, trauma, substance abuse, relationships, grief, and ADHD. I accept Aetna, Pacific Source, Cigna, Kaiser, Primera Blue Cross, Regence, and United Behavioral Health. For more information please see my website.

I mainly utilize Solution Focused, Client Centered, and Existential Therapy. What they all have in common is the understanding that no one is more qualified to lead your life than you. However people might need some support in realizing there possibilities, or understanding and acceptance thru the dark times.
