My ideal client is an insight oriented adult who understands that one cannot simply talk oneself into well-being. Many times, changes in behaviors, attitudes and outlook are required, as well. For the last 3 decades, I have worked with people from all walks of life and with a wide variety of ages, problems and strengths, including children, couples and families. At this point in my career, my practice is focused on working with adult individuals and couples. I am a big believer in building a trusting, safe, therapeutic relationship where Clients can speak their truth, feel safe enough to be open and resolve their concerns.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Substance Use Disorder Specialist in Washington State, specializing in substance use, behavioral addictions and deconstructing belief systems.
It's been my experience that people choose counseling when something in their lives isn’t working; they have a sense that "something isn't right" and they want things to be better but don’t know what "better" looks like. I'm passionate about helping people discover new possibilities and recognize their full potential. I hold space as they work through their experiences with depression, anxiety, unprocessed trauma, addictions, unprocessed grief, codependency, family of origin issues or learning how to navigate the uncertainties and challenges of life.

You may understand your patterns, have done the work, and still feel like something isn’t changing. Maybe you’re anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in your head, or constantly trying to hold everything together.

Together, we’ll explore what your nervous system has learned to protect you from and build greater safety, self-trust, flexibility, and choice, so you can move through life feeling more like yourself.

My background is deliberately broad: LGBTQ+ and transgender-affirming care, training in sexuality and sexology, substance use and recovery, and complex clinical work.
I'm at my best with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure what comes next. A lot of the people I work with are dealing with trauma, anxiety, questions about identity, relationships, big life changes, or the experience of being marginalized. I'm comfortable with complicated feelings, complicated relationships, and complicated histories, and I'll help you make sense of your patterns without judging you. You don't have to know exactly what you need from therapy before you reach out. We can figure that out together. And if sitting and talking has never quite worked for you, we'll find something that does.

You are here because something needs to change for you or a loved one. Maybe there's a gap between what you logically understand and what you emotionally 'know' to be true that feels impossible to bridge. You might be struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, addiction--to a substance or a behavior. You might be looking for skills to cope with life's challenges--managing emotions, healthy communication, and organization. You might be looking for relief from painful events that still effect your day to day life. You deserve to be happy, to take care of yourself and your loved ones, and to feel safe.

I specialize in therapy for trauma and/or anxiety in Olympia and online throughout Washington, with a focus on Brainspotting, somatic therapy, and parts work (often called "IFS"). I primarily work somatically (with the body) and mindfully (with non-judgmental attention to our present-moment experience), and weave attachment work into most everything I do. Many who work with me are thoughtful, intuitive folks who hold their lives together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed or self-critical on the inside. If you’ve spent years just managing symptoms but sense something deeper is asking for attention, we might be a good fit.

My approach to therapy is very client focused. I am a systemic therapist and will try and look at the whole picture of your life to help figure out how to help. Working with couples to save, restore, or provide maintenance is my passion. There’s nothing in the world quite like trauma and the way it impacts us as individuals on many different levels. I can help you deal with and navigate these painful memories and intrusive thoughts to live a healthier life. If you are a parent struggling with a child or family problems, I believe I can connect with and help teach both parent and child to help you be a more successful family unit.

I have worked with co-occuring substance use disorders and mental health disorders in an inpatient setting.
People I work with often navigate: persistent self-criticism or shame, histories of trauma, difficulty managing anger or emotional intensity, grief, or life transitions that feel disorienting. Perhaps your mind moves fast, but tasks feel stuck. Maybe anger feels hard to control, focus feels elusive, or grief has left you untethered. You might long for connection, clarity, or simply a space where you don’t have to explain why it’s hard.

Substance Use Therapists
How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?
In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.
How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.
How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?
There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
