Adults Therapists in Redmond, WA

Accepting new clients! Trauma and mental health struggles can keep us stuck in patterns that debilitate us internally and relationally. It is my goal to partner with you in getting un-stuck. My hope is for us to grow your capacity to live more fully, care more deeply, and love better. I work from a relational, psychodynamic framework which means that I believe we are harmed in relationships but can also heal in relationships. I work with adults and teens to help work through mental health struggles, addiction, trauma, and life's burdens.

**ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS FOR EVENING AND WEEKEND APPOINTMENTS** I love the diversity and uniqueness of the clients I meet. I prize developing a warm and close working relationship with my clients. The rewards can be great, especially with kids that are experiencing great emotional, physical and situational changes that can often be so intense and so indescribable at the same time. I have demonstrated a knack for helping to supply words and meaning to adolescent experience and for helping to alleviate uncertainty, anxiety, tension and strife. I also identify and utilize a person's strengths as a primary means of positive change.

Have you ever found yourself frozen in place? Maybe it's the stress of a decision, or concern about navigating relationships. Or there are too many things to juggle, and any move seems like the wrong one. Perhaps your mind always gravitates toward worst-case scenarios. Whatever the cause, it is possible to get unstuck, and even to find direction and greater peace. Sometimes this means working from the top down - what unhealthy rhythms are in your life, and how can they be replaced with things that tend to wholeness and freedom? Sometimes, this means working from the bottom up, addressing past wounding and how it carries into today.

You know those therapists who are so calming and soothing, and usually have one of those freaking awesome rock formations with streaming water behind them? Soooo... I'm not one of those therapists! First off, I just used the word "freaking" in my intro, and that's when I'm trying to be my most professional! Secondly, and more importantly, I'm just not into all the head bobbing and "uh huh, tell me more." I'm more of a "what's going on? Talk to me" kind of therapist. I am committed to creating a safe space for each client, whether you are feeling relationally drained, hopeless, in need of connection, or ready to process your story.

I am a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and enjoy actively developing tools and perspectives with my client that decrease distress, reduce unwanted behavior and improve mood.

In a blaring, often confusing world, it is easy to become paralyzed by expectations from within and from others. In our paralysis, we numb disappointment and pain with distractions such as addictions, isolation, unwanted sexual experiences, and other behaviors that betray who we really are and who we want to become still. We become slaves to the automatic thoughts, feelings, urges, memories, and other inner experiences that tell us to betray who God has made us to be.

While many may hope to attain a quick solution to their struggles through the work of therapy, it is my ultimate goal that the psychological treatment facilitates healing through meaningful self-discovery. As a therapist, I strive to be a witness to stories you may have never told anyone before, including yourself. Every part of your life presents its own uniqueness and complexity. I believe that the inherent safety and trust found within the therapeutic relationship are paramount as therapist and patient embark on this exploration of your past and present experiences.

I will walk with you in your journey to facilitate your healing and to grow into your full potential.

I see tweens, teens, college students, adults , and parents: One of the hardest things as a parent is watching your child/teen suffer, whether it be from anxiety, OCD, depression, intense emotion, or social challenges.

Navigating the demands on your time and the emotions of your child feels impossible. You're suffering, too.
