Experiential Therapy in 98663

I employ a holistic and mindful approach, in which we'll collaboratively create the best plan of action for you based on your individual goals and strengths. I hope to provide you with a warm, accepting space in which we can get curious about your life and experiences, and to explore the tools necessary to better cope, grow, and thrive.

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.

As a therapist, my commitment lies in creating a secure and non-judgmental environment where individuals can delve into their thoughts, process trauma, navigate through grief, and foster personal growth. I actively encourage people to unearth their inner creativity and nurture that vibrant spark within. Recognizing that creativity and self-expression are integral to my approach, I believe in harnessing creative coping mechanisms that are accessible in our day-to-day lives.

Online Only! I work with adolescents through various work experiences. I enjoy working with couples who may be struggling in their relationship because I believe there is no problem large enough that we cannot work through. The same goes for families. The family is a fundamental building block in all of our relationships, through which all other relationships we may have can grow. I work together with my clients to create goals and helps equip them with tools to continue to grow throughout the rest of their lives. I create a safe environment in order for my clients to be able to open up and find healing in all aspects of life.

Do you sometimes feel like you are not enough? Are you carrying a heavy burden? Do you feel like you're not living a life that is in line with your true self? I can help! I truly believe in the healing power of shining light on the parts of ourselves that we normally keep hidden. As a therapist I strive to develop a nurturing and honest alliance where you can freely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences, free from judgement.

An ideal client would be a person who is ready to work through the patterns and issues that keep getting in the way of satisfaction and wellness in life. My work with clients is focused on an individual’s strength while helping them to develop an understanding of their past and present, their inner beliefs and resulting underlying issues. I strive to provide clients with a safe, supportive and caring environment in which to explore their personal issues.

Sometimes we find ourselves feeling a sense of groundlessness during major life transitions, events, grief, or loss. Sometimes this groundlessness is experienced as anxiety, loneliness, relational distress, poor sense of self-worth, or insecurity. While these experiences can cause immense distress, they can also provide an opportunity to explore and get to know ourselves in ways we have not yet imagined.

As human beings, we are incredibly resilient but weathering the storms of life can be difficult at times without additional support. Counseling can provide an outlet that allows us to explore our pain and gain an understanding of our true Self. I take an integrative, holistic, and trauma-informed approach to counseling. Using a warm and open approach, together we will work to discover the resources you hold within you to promote healing and growth. I have experience working with survivors of both childhood and adult trauma.

We may feel ready for a new direction and unsure how to make meaningful change. Our habits may seem increasingly inadequate to meet our daily challenges. We may experience patterns of venting and withdrawing, or feel ashamed of our thoughts or desires. Your therapy can focus on providing the means for you to renegotiate your relationships. We also focus on bringing to light the implicit stories, narratives, and beliefs that form the foundation of your self-understanding and relationship with yourself, others, and the world.
