Therapists in Medical Lake, WA

Our team of Mental Health Counselors, Marriage Family Therapists and Clinical Social Workers offer a sincere welcome. We know it takes courage to step out of our comfort zones and embrace change. It is our desire to help those who are struggling to find the kind of life they long for. While trauma may not be something you are seeking direct services for, you can have the peace of knowing that all our staff are skilled in addressing trauma should it be or become a factor in treatment. Whether you are battling stress, anxiety, depression, or trying to find calm in the aftermath of trauma; we believe that peace and joy are possible.

I am in this line of work because I firmly believe in the incredible strength of the human spirit and our ability to create desired change. My M.A. in Marriage and Family Therapy afforded an elevated perspective of the human condition through the lens of larger influential systems. This framework shifted psychotherapy away from exclusively looking at the individual to looking at the family and other significant relationships to understand the context of a client's struggle as well as their potential for healing.

In a perfect world, we are operating at 100% energy, vigor, and zest. Life's trials and tribulations can inhibit our ability to fully self express. I offer to you the opportunity to get past and triumph over factors in your life that are inhibiting your ability to achieve your goals and aspirations. Whether you struggle from a physical, emotional, mental, and/or spiritual impediment, our time together will focus on your wants and needs so that you can overcome any such challenges and move forward in the present in an empowered manner. If you are ready, I am ready to support you.

Greetings! As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, MHP, CMHS, I believe building a healthy therapeutic relationship is cultivated by implementing comprehensive, person-centered, trauma informed, evidence-based clinical approaches! When personally motivated for intrinsic change, therapy can provide a secure setting inviting self-examination while exploring multi-generational systemic and family trauma. To sustain improved healthy symptom changes, engaging in consistent treatment clinically proven to restructure negative cognitions directly impacting personal emotional regulation and negative behavioral patterns, is crucial.

We are an innovative community of unconventional, yet comprehensively trained, psychotherapists providing practical, non-reductive, and in-depth support to help you overcome adversities, resolve outdated patterns, craft more fulfilling relationships, achieve your mental health goals—and address the traumas, stressors, burdens, and conflicts that hold you back from enjoying what your life and relationships have to offer. In general, we foster a holistic and integrative approach to mental health care that focuses on what works and is not limited to what has traditionally been practiced.
