"Avanti is a place where teens, young adults, parents, and families can receive counseling and support.

We are here to help you achieve healing, insight and growth in your life."

"I provide counseling services for adolescents, teenagers, and adults who experience anxiety, depression, and other adjustment challenges. My therapy is primarily talk-based with educational handouts, therapeutic games, and exercises available to supplement. I work well with those dedicated to the imperfect process of personal growth and wellness. My therapeutic orientation is eclectic (i.e. CBT, TF-CBT, EFT), holistic, and strength-based. "

"Increasing conflict is making simple communication a real pain - you're alternating back and forth from explosive words to tense silence. Depression or anxiety is creeping up on you, and you know it's bad for the kids to sense the lack of stability. If you are tired of the same old argument with your partner, and are even throwing out the dreaded "D" word (Divorce) in the heat of it, I can help you get the clarity you need to decide if your relationship is worth saving - and to do what's needed to get things back on track."

"Each adolescent/young adult face challenges as they learn to navigate life and find their place in the world. At times, these obstacles may feel like Mt. Everest and impossible to overcome. Issues may arise such as trouble with concentrating, lack of motivation, perfectionism, social issues, academic struggles, anxiety, depression, and sometimes addiction. All of which may be overwhelming to a young person. Often adolescent/young adults need a "neutral party," someone they can talk to, in confidence, to discuss and work through issues. Having a therapists offers a safe place to share, feel accepted, and understood. "

"Are you the concerned parent of a teen or young adult who is struggling with anxiety or depression? Are you or your loved one experiencing escalating emotional distress, conflicts at home or concerns about school? Help is here! I specialize in working with teens and young adults ages 13-30."

"I opened my practice in Sammamish in 1998. My clients come from multi ethnic backgrounds. I work with late teens (18 years and older) to those in their senior years on issues ranging from anxiety and depression to more serious illness. I will work closely with your medical providers to take care of you. If you have been upset and struggling for more than two weeks, give me a call so we can work together to find the best path for you to get back on track. I enjoy working with adults experiencing career challenges or marital dissatisfaction. I work with individuals and/or couples. "

"I help people deal with painful thoughts, feelings, and symptoms that get in the way of living satisfying lives.

"Over 35+yrs professional experience.

You have your own inner wisdom to access.

"In-Network with Aetna and Premera -- Accepting New Clients! Evening appointments available. I work with children, adolescents, adults and couples. In my counseling work, my starting point is a strength-based, client-focused approach to understand you as an individual, as well as the strengths you have to positively change your situation. (I know we don't always feel these strengths. I think we typically are more hurt than we show, and we are also not as broken as we feel.) My focus has been to sit and listen with an open mind so I can best learn about you and your life."

"I am not accepting new clients for psychotherapy at this time. Inquiries regarding consultation services may contact: 888-520-8220"

"I work with clients struggling with ADHD symptoms as well as clients who are overwhelmed with the stress and expectations of life. I want to talk with young people who feel like they should be able to handle things better, but for one reason or another, are not. I also want to work with the families who struggle providing the support and guidance their young person needs to attain the success they can have."

"A therapeutic relationship should be a safe space to explain, explore and challenge understandings and meanings. It is a good place to raise questions about assumptions, experiment with new ideas and new behaviors, develop new options and make intentional choices about those options. It should be a unique experience that leads to the growth you desire."

"Help for adolescents and adults. Our attempts to connect with others or express our fears and worries are often met with criticism or a "let's fix it and move on" attitude. It is normal to feel shame and fear, frustration, anger, and at times stuck. In therapy I give you the space to freely speak, be heard, and sit with an idea, thought, or feeling at your own pace. I will give you practical assistance for the challenges you are facing."

"Self-awareness and self-understanding are important for success in the therapeutic journey. A thorough, strength-based, and holistic psychological assessment can provide young people and their families with much desired clarity, validation, and direction. A psychological assessment can inform school-based and academic intervention, psychological treatment, and pharmacological intervention as needed. Many families have youth who have struggled through school, are overwhelmed by stress, and/or have had interpersonal conflict. I help families make sense of their child or teen's unique circumstances and get them the right support. "

"Individuals and couples need to discover new ways of dealing with life's stressors. Working from a family systems and trauma focused perspective, clients explore healthier ways of interacting with themselves, friends, family, and work associates. Change occurs when people recognize their relationship patterns. This allows people to improve communications and interpersonal connections. Having worked extensively with Amazon.com, Microsoft, and Google employees, along with executives from other high tech or start up companies, I help people manage expectations from work and developing a healthy home life.
