We are living in stressful times. I believe that psychotherapy can be an important component of a healthy lifestyle, enabling us to thrive, find meaning and enjoy our lives even in difficult circumstances. Accordingly stress reduction is one of my areas of specialization. I also have extensive experience working with people who have experienced narcissistic abuse and I specialize in helping individuals understand, navigate and heal from these kinds of toxic relationships.

I am a psychotherapist working with adults, young adults and couples. I believe that the more one's difficult emotional experiences can be expressed and talked through together, in a safe and engaging environment, the more helpful the therapeutic process can be. I assist those who are facing a wide range of issues including grief and loss, depression, anxiety and relationship difficulties to take steps to live more satisfying lives.

My ideal clients are children, adolescents, and adults who seek to understand and express their emotions in relation to their life experiences and identity. Clients who work with me want to grow in processing their feelings and deepen self-understanding. Through a psychodynamic basis, I utilize a trauma-informed, narrative, and relational approach to therapy, incorporating parts work, attachment theory, and somatic techniques to emphasize the mind-body connection. I specialize in working with neurodivergent clients, those with chronic illnesses, queer clients, and those processing spiritual deconstruction and grief.

The in person Groups I run are weekly ongoing psychodrama groups.
As a therapist I encourage people to step outside the box of what is familiar and risk meeting themselves in a new and authentic way. I enjoy working with those who love learning and are open to taking an active approach to changing life strategies that are no longer working. My role is to listen, witness, encourage, nurture, support, challenge, and invite you to participate in your own life adventure with creativity, spontaneity, and integrity. I take a collaborative approach to the issues and concerns presented and together work toward solutions and change. Taking charge of one's life story is empowering and worth the challenge.

If you're an adult or teen in Washington state suffering from OCD, I would love to hear from you! I specialize in treating OCD, and I am especially skilled in treating “rumination as a compulsion”—mental compulsions that are not visible to anyone else. I offer Exposure with Response Prevention (ERP), Inference-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), and Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), all of which are scientifically effective in treating OCD. I-CBT has been described as profound and a “game-changer.” This compassionate and effective psychotherapy has been changing lives in Canada and Europe for over 20 years.

Accepting new clients! I work with anyone who is feeling stuck in their life- helping them feel seen, heard, and understood, as we approach problems with curiosity and empathy.

If you're motivated and engaged in the process, therapy can give you the set of tools you need to improve (or completely change) your life. My background includes in-depth therapeutic training, 12 years of experience as a therapist, as well as 7 years of supervising associate therapists.

Often, we learn, grow, heal, and begin to thrive when we feel connection through care. Life can feel incredibly difficult and, in seasons that require additional support, hard work, and perseverance, therapy can be a valuable tool. Showing up confidently as yourself in a world with specific expectations can be daunting. My approach is relational and embodied. Working with me has been described as feeling warm, open, and honest. I bring a great deal of curiosity and tend to ask brave questions. I am open to learning within the relationship and working together to create a map of your inner world.

Many of our wounds may have been formed in the absence of a witness or lack of connection. You may be struggling with an eating disorder, body image concerns, low self-worth, anxiety, or relationship challenges. Often, these wounds are formed in the absence of validation and support, or a lack of connection. Because wounds are often started in relationships, it makes sense for healing to happen in a relational way. I believe in the transformational and impactful work that happens within relationships both in and outside of the therapy space.

I offer therapy sessions in-person in Columbia City as well as online via video.
Our bodies and psyche can hold unconscious patterns. Often people will seek therapy when patterns that once aided in survival become a hindrance to their growth. You might find yourself in dilemmas where you are overachieving but still believe you aren’t good enough. You might feel “other” or invisible even when you authentically share yourself. You might feel overwhelmed but not know how to talk about it or believe that no one will listen. While each person is unique, these are some of the reasons that bring people to therapy.
