Therapists in Buckley, WA

I am passionate about social justice and equity issues affecting historically disadvantaged groups. I work with individuals and families, to help promote growth, change, healing and/or insight. In our therapeutic partnership, we will focus on celebrating your achievements, envision a desirable future, then map out the small/large changes necessary to realize and actualize your vision.

I enjoy and am qualified to help individuals, couples, or families navigate life's challenges, whether personal, with a partner, family, or peers. You will find that I am respectful, personable, open, knowledgeable, and humorous in my sessions. All faiths, or lack thereof, are welcome. I am experienced with grief, loss, trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, bipolar, schizophrenia, autism, ODD, and OCD. My therapeutic approach involves collaborating with clients to identify and enlist their strengths or resources to improve their quality of life.

Many of us seek therapy at different periods of our lives with different reasons such as couple and family conflicts, losing loved ones, life transition issues, addiction, sadness, anxiety, depression. We sometimes may not figure out what we are going through. Unknowns and uncertainties may increase in our lives and become unmanageable, or we are unable to fulfill our search for meaning. Therapy helps us cope with difficult and painful emotions, figure out what we are going through, and name it. Carl Rogers defines growth as any kind of movement toward “self-esteem, flexibility, or respect and compassion for self and others."

My approaches are client centered, solution focused and strength based. I utilize processes that are interactive, collaborative and holistic. I honor each clients unique healing journey and guide them through self-compassion and self-care.

I'm a positive, approachable, and multicultural mental health professional who understands challenges. Being multicultural and bilingual, I'm culturally sensitive, working well with diverse backgrounds.
