Therapists in Puyallup, WA

As we venture through life, sometimes we find that the expectations we set for ourselves, our partners, and the future are constantly changing. My hope is to ease you through life’s transitions while enriching the relationships you have. I believe therapy should be a safe, non-judgmental, and nurturing place to put down the weights and ease into meaningful conversations. I enjoy working together with clients to identify their strengths, explore ways to reconnect with themselves and others to move forward in ways that feel genuine.

I believe connection is the energy of life. Whether it is intimacy with a loved one, the tender bond of family, spiritual connection with the Creator, insightful relationship with self, or avoidance of connection, it affects everyday life. Through therapeutic relationship, I work with you to discover your unique strengths and process your connections; empowering you to access healing and clarity. Together we will explore the internal and external messaging that keeps you from the progress you desire.

Utilizing Emotion-focused therapy (EFT), we will create an open and honest partnership to improve your mental health and explore who you are and what you would like to achieve. My style of therapy is a collaborative approach between myself and my clients as we strive to reach your goals. I believe counseling provides a safe place for clients to be able to heal and grow. As Humans, we are emotionally bonding creatures, and it is crucial to recognize and support the emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions of our beings.

Sometimes in life we find ourselves dealing with issues we never imagined would happen. We struggle in relationships or we struggle at work. Sometimes we don't know why we're feeling the way we are- and that's ok too. Throughout life we face a variety of struggles psychotherapy helps you know you're not alone. My goal is to help you find hope, your direction to authenticity and healing beyond the struggles you're holding.

I serve children (6+), teens, and adults (up to 40) for individual therapy. I also conduct couples therapy, family therapy and i offer parent sessions. I use a mixture of models to meet each client where they are currently at in their mental health journey.

First off, I am so proud that you have taken the first (or 1000th) step on this journey of reconnecting with your authentic self! I firmly believe that each client has the potential to access everything they need within themselves, with supportive and nurturing guidance. We will work together to identify limitations and barriers and build the tools necessary to move through them with grace and compassion. Your primary goal is self-empowerment and energetic centering and I am hopeful to help you get there. If you are interested in a holistic approach to your mental health, I would love to be a part of your journey.

As a therapist, I see my clients as the experts in their own lives. My role is akin to that of a guest—here to build upon the tools you already possess while introducing new ones that align with your life goals. I enjoy guiding clients through challenging life changes and helping them break patterns that no longer serve them. My experience primarily lies in working with teens and adults, including LGBTQIA+ youth and individuals with BIPOC identities.

You're a hard-working man who takes care of his family and strives to be honest and trustworthy. Yet it feels like what you do is never enough. You have a tendency to close yourself off because you are so afraid of rejection and the people closest to you complain that you’re not “trying hard enough”. You’re stuck because you don’t know how to manage stress and you feel like nothing has worked.  As a way to deal you pick up projects and "work on things” alone, but it only offers temporary relief. You want to feel connected to yourself again, to the people in your life and you’re ready to make the changes you need.

I believe in the inherent glory, beauty, and strength within each individual. While this may sound idealistic, it's undeniable that our lives often encompass brokenness, pain, darkness, and shame, obscuring our true essence. My mission is to guide you through understanding your personal narrative or "mythos" that has sculpted your identity. This involves exploring your self-perception, spiritual beliefs, and your interaction with the world. I am committed to journeying with you through the depths of pain and darkness to uncover the profound truth of our existence – that we are intimately known and cherished by God.

Telehealth/virtual counseling only. I am open: Monday, Tuesday all day. I make time for businesses needing a Critical Incident Stress Management specialist for a traumatic situation in the workplace. I supervise therapists seeking supervision hours for full licensure, and I am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor and Washington state approved supervisor. I help those with relationship issues or adjustments such as divorce, a move in career or home location, losses or kids growing up and leaving home, or struggling to navigate and adjust to chronic illness, and grief and loss, just to name a few topics.

I work with each person through a holistic and integrative lens. Whether I am completing an evaluation or providing therapy, it is not one size fits all. I take a lot of pride when a client tells me, “you’re not like my other therapist.” I’ve heard all sorts of reasons I’m not like others. Most often, I hear appreciation about my ability to validate and push for change at the same time. I provide individual and group therapy; working with older teenage and adult men and women. I also provide evaluation services in various areas, such as behavioral, emotional, personality, cognitive, sexual, and memory domains.

I work with individuals, couples & groups as a psychotherapist, business coach, and energy intuitive since 1995. My work tends to the deep needs of the soul and addresses the most basic ego scripts so that you can shift cellular memories, rediscover your true voice, reconnect with your healthiest sense of self and remember your deepest callings--and then find the freedom to seek and find your best and highest self. I facilitate both Family Constellations and Organizational (business) Constellations on-line and in workshops that open you to engage with your deepest creativity and free you from repeating negative patterns.

No matter what a person is put through in life, the power to transform is infinite.

Everyone goes through challenging situations in life, and while you may have successfully navigated through other difficulties you've faced, there's nothing wrong with seeking out extra support when you need it. I believe that children, adolescents, adults, couples and families can and deserve symptom relief, peace, harmony and greater satisfaction in their personal life, marriage, job, school, and interpersonal relationships. I provide a safe, warm and confidential therapeutic environment to achieve these goals with you.
