Bringing your child into counseling can be an unnerving idea. All parents/caregivers want the best for their child, they want them to feel confident, joyful, playful, and most importantly to heal. And let's be real, they also want things to be going better at home or at school! But they're often not sure how to get started. I use a relational neuroscience approach to help parents/caregivers help their children.

Sex and porn addiction, drug and alcohol addiction, with a focus on underlying trauma & codependency are my areas of expertise. My goal is to assist you to transcend suffering, to lay your secrets down and get rid of toxic shame. My focus for you is self-transformation, to like/love yourself and to be released from isolation. Empathy and confidentiality and a focus on the underlying neurocognitive function of addiction, trauma and recovery are the foundations of my practice. With 30 years in the field, I hold two master's degrees, one from the world-renowned Hazelden-Betty Ford Graduate School of Addiction Studies.

Accepting new clients who can be flexible in scheduling! Healing opens the space between stimulus and response. In that space, we have more time to process what's happening, which gives us more time to choose better responses. Better responses tend to bring much more happiness, and tend to lower the levels of stress in our bodies. For MUCH more about me, Please Visit my WEBSITE where you can EMAIL me via an encrypted link.

I am currenty on maternity leave and not seeing clients until June 2023. Healing and caring for ourselves is hard work. Sometimes painful, often fulfilling, occasionally tedious, it is a necessary part of being open to the experiences that life has to offer us. Therapy is one way to find support in healing from trauma, managing our health, and discovering and practicing new ways of caring for ourselves. As Audre Lorde wrote, "Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare." This work is important, both individually and collectively, and I am here to help you with it.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in the beautiful city of Olympia, Washington. I specialize in individual and relationship counseling with adults. I address areas of self-esteem; depression/sadness; stress/anxiety; PTSD; grief/loss (including the loss of a pet); and life transitions; as well as nurturing personal and spiritual growth. I think belief systems are the stories we tell ourselves to define our personal sense of reality. Each of us has a belief system that creates patterns of behavior--which can be positive or negative. My therapy approach is based in principles from:

We live in relationship to others. These relationships influence how we see ourselves and the world around us and sometimes we get inaccurate messages about who we are, who we need to be, and what we can and cannot do. I work with adults, teens, and families in processing life events and transitions that have made you feel disempowered and support you in remembering who you are – valuable, worthy, and resilient.

Counselor, MA, LMHC

Liminal is the Latin word for "threshold". A space in time where we are no longer where we were, but do not yet see where we will be. It is the in between time. Most of us experience times like this in our lives; at the end of a relationship, between jobs, certain developmental stages like mid life, when the children leave home, any time our roles or sense of identity are changing. We may experience uncertainty, unease or even fear. We may simply not have a clear vision for where we are headed, where we want to be. It is a time we often reach out for help in sorting through what was, is, and may yet be.

I work with older teens and adults who want support in meeting the challenges they face with more ease. In my counseling sessions I provide a space that is open, safe, and nonjudgmental. I listen closely for all that is present in you in the moment, and I offer reflections and questions to help you bring greater awareness to your experience. Over time, we can together begin to notice patterns of thinking, believing, and acting that have woven through your past and present. We may begin to see what has been helpful, and also what is now keeping you out of alignment with the life that is authentic to you.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
