I am passionate about helping clients live life to the fullest. As a mental health counselor, I am committed to developing a positive and helpful partnership with each client during the therapy process.

I am licensed in Washington State and I work with adult children, partners and siblings of individuals with Narcissistic and Borderline Personality Disorder traits. It can be difficult to find a therapist who truly understands the impact and wounds of being raised in a home or being in a relationship with someone who has narcissistic traits or borderline traits. My work includes creating a healthy psychological separation, changing the negative internal messages, learning how to respond to others, creating healthy boundaries, stopping the legacy of distorted love and becoming your true and authentic self.

Clinical hypnotherapy is a powerful treatment strategy with broad applications. Hypnosis engages with the subconscious mind by offering new ideas and new stories to help shift unhelpful or harmful patterns of behavior. Hypnosis can be used to treat a variety of clinical conditions (e.g. insomnia, jaw clenching), phobias (dogs, flying), and even addiction.

As your therapist, my goal is to provide you with a warm and welcoming environment where you are free to explore the areas of your life you wish to improve for holistic healing - physical, emotional, mental, relational, and spiritual.

My primary focus is in child, individual, and couples/family counseling as well as working with neurodivergent populations using neurodiversity-affirming language and approach.

I am highly passionate and invested in helping people through the challenges and overwhelming feelings we face in life. It makes my heart sing when someone's well being improves enough to making empowering changes in his or her life.

I am experienced working with children, adults, couples, and families. Many times, people who call me are in distress, having tried what feels like everything, and they often feel frustrated and overwhelmed by their situation. My goal is to help individuals identify patterns of dysfunction that create problems for them. I work within the framework of an individual’s gifts and challenges to develop a strong relationship that allows for open communication and honesty. My strengths-based approach allows individuals to feel they have a voice and builds upon the good that is already taking place within their life and relationships.

St Augustine once wrote “People travel to wonder at the height of the mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering.” Life asks a lot today. Our children need help with homework. Our jobs need us to produce more, our parents need us as age diminishes their abilities. After everything, one is left to wonder not at themselves, but at where all the time went?

My passion is helping individuals navigate through life challenges and move towards greater self acceptance and inner peace. I work to individualize my approach to the unique needs of each client. I have significant experience working with adults and adolescents dealing with mood disorders, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, stress, work/life balance issues, and trauma. I enjoy working with women and teen girls on self esteem, identity, and a positive body image. My education and training is primarily in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy.

I love counseling, coaching and consulting. In delivering these approaches to enrich my clients’ lives, different modalities are used. These include and are not limited to cognitive behavioral, emotionally focused individual therapy, and humanistic/existential format – pinpointing where the client is at, promoting an understanding of their subjective experience while also honoring their past experiences. For some, recognizing and bringing awareness on how those experiences influence their present lives cultivates healing- one goal being maximizing an individual’s potential to enrich their lives according to their core values.

I am passionate about helping people to promote well-being and to manage emotional distress and psychiatric symptoms. I enjoy using psychological theories and mind-body interventions to help children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds to improve their physical and mental health. I have helped people to reach their physical health goals, heal from trauma, make career and life transitions, grow in marriages and relationships, and build mood and anxiety management tools. My sessions focus on sharing information and skills to address your unique needs and life circumstances. We will develop a treatment plan together.

The majority of my career has been spent working in an emergency department & inpatient hospital setting. As an outpatient therapist, I combine these skills with additional therapeutic interventions to define, build, and complete your treatment goals. I work from a strength-based, solution-focused approach & utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques to best support the needs of my clients.

Let's face it, life can be stressful. That stress can become even more pronounced as you navigate new transitions like becoming an adult, moving to a new city, starting a new job, or leaving a relationship. Often times we have the answer but just need help sorting things out. Sometimes family and friends can be too close to help you identify your challenges. Sometimes THEY are the challenge. Working and trying to manage day-to-day responsibilities is no simple task. This is why I a firm believer in therapy.

Life can be messy and difficult. It is hard to rise up from difficulties and reach your true potential. My clients feel heard, understood and supported while acquiring skills and knowledge to create the changes in their live that makes them happy and successful. Hoping things will change with time is probably not going to happen. You are precious and matter. I truly believe that people are meant to live exordinary lives. Let me help you reach your potential. Embrace Hope Counseling is a Video Telehealth Therapy Practice which gives clients the ability to have sessions without wasting time getting to an office.
