TriWest Therapists in Anderson Island, WA
I believe therapy that combines emotional processing, skill development, and a strong therapeutic relationship can give way to a process that can be transformational for both client and therapist. When engaged in therapy, I see the potential for every person to experience newfound motivation and profound insights that lead to acknowledging new possibilities and taking action. I have experience working with people from diverse backgrounds including the LGBTQ+ community, the BIPOC community, individuals who struggle with substances/addictive behaviors, and individuals from various economic backgrounds.

Navigating mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, and trauma-related challenges can feel overwhelming, leaving you disconnected from yourself and those around you. These experiences can shape thoughts, emotions, and relationships in ways that feel isolating. Therapy is a space to explore these patterns, uncover new ways of coping, and build a sense of stability.

I have a passion for helping others and offer a compassionate, safe space to help you work towards positive change. My work from a strengths-based perspective helps you recognize your strengths. Your strengths are how you have managed life as you know it. We will work together towards a solution that feels best to you. I believe we are all stronger than we know and sometimes things just get in the way. We can take time to understand the patterns that have been created in your life. While we can’t change the past, knowing your story can help you move forward.

Facing anxiety, depression, or struggles with substance use can make life feel heavy and unpredictable, even when you’re doing everything you can to hold things together. These experiences are not signs of failure—they’re part of the complex challenges many people face quietly every day. I chose to become a mental health clinician because I believe in the strength it takes to seek support, and I’ve seen how powerful it can be when someone chooses to show up for themselves. Therapy isn’t about fixing what's broken; it’s about creating space for change, growth, and resilience.

Navigating through life's ever-changing landscape can be a complex journey, often marked by waves of anxiety, shades of depression, and the challenges of adjustment disorder. These experiences, though unique, share a common thread: they reflect our response to the world around us and the transitions we face. In my practice, I focus on understanding these emotional landscapes, creating a supportive space where you can explore and process these feelings. We'll work together to acknowledge the impact of life's shifts and the emotions they stir, fostering resilience and a deeper understanding of your personal journey.

There are a lot of great listeners out there that will help you feel comfortable and heard. That’s not me.

I’m invested in helping you move forward, not just passively listening while you stay stuck.

It all starts with listening and exploring your story, what brings you in to therapy. For many it has been a long journey, for others something may have happened just recently which needs to be addressed, it could be dealing with a problematic recurring pattern, or it may be tied to things that happened long ago in the past. I use a person-centered approach, wholly focusing on you the client in the moment, bringing my training and my own best self forward to help you overcome the suffering that brings you to the office. I provide a compassionate, centered space in which to experience learning, growing, and healing.

During periods of anxiety and depression we frequently feel a sensation like being paralyzed, of being stuck. At other times the world around us can feel like it is changing too quickly. This can be due to transitional periods, such as a graduation, new marriage, new baby, divorce or retirement; or due to national and global transitional periods, such as politics, the economy, or climate change. Brief periods of anxiety and depression are normal reactions when they are brief, but the feeling of being stuck or being overwhelmed can become the foundation of our existence, impacting our minds, our bodies and our relationships

Sometimes the closer you are to a problem, the harder it is to see. Unfortunately an inevitability of life is we can’t have all of the answers. As a clinical intern, I see this as an opportunity for us to embark on a journey together to find some solutions. I love working with many different kinds of clients. But I’m passionate about representing communities that don’t have a strong voice in the mental health space. Some of these populations are emergency responders, police officers, firefighters, nurses and many more. Mental health is not something we have to deal with alone; together we can find new ways of being in the world.

In my experience, healing and transformation is a process of "unearthing" existing strengths, tools, and self-compassion that may have been lost through adverse experiences, trauma, or chronic mental health challenges. While learning new coping skills is important, I believe much of the medicine for healing our own wounds exists within us. I think good therapy requires a 'remembering' of the old gifts and integrating the 'new' tools. I believe that clients are the most valuable wisdom-holders in the therapy space. I hope to align with my clients to tap into their own inner wisdom to reach their goals, whatever those may be.
