The human experience can be a difficult one. Learning to deal with the ins and outs of our daily lives and the world around us can be daunting. People often struggle getting past their own barriers to see their personal strengths and potential for success in all aspects of their lives. By participating in therapy, individuals can find a safe place to learn and grow by discussing their emotions and experiences. Working on learning skills can improve natural coping mechanisms and reduce distress caused by mental health disorders. I received my Masters in Social Work from EWU and have been a mental health counselor for over 2 years.

Psychological testing evaluations for ADHD and other issues are available via telehealth.

Hi! My name is Veronica and go by my nickname, Moica. I have an eclectic solution-focused approach to my work with individuals. Utilizing a customized approach to support each client's unique challenges and barriers. Support my client to take the lead in their treatment and create an engaging dialogue and experience. Utilizing therapy as a safe place to vent, process and express yourself is a great use of your session; however, I also enjoy treating from a systemic approach. This allows me to create a clear road map for my clients on how they can reach some of their “Big Goals”, whether they are personal and or professional goals.

I work with professional, motivated people who are ready to overcome long-standing emotional barriers to achieve their fullest potential. Many of my patients are seeking healing from abusive relationships, betrayal trauma, work or military trauma, and early childhood wounds, and they are ready to do the deep inner work needed to overcome PTSD, depression, and anxiety. When they begin therapy, they are ready to explore painful areas they may have pushed away for years, and are in a place where they are ready to challenge themselves to overcome their pain.

Maybe you've received diagnoses that don't make sense to you, or you've been told your struggles are "all in our head" and you just need to "try harder." Many adults with signs and symptoms of ADHD & Autism share this experience. They are folx who find themselves burnt out and stretched thin after decades of wearing a mask of inauthenticity, trying to fit themselves into the mold that neurotypical society says is the "right" way to be. But what if I told you that's not true? That there is no wrong or right way to be your authentic self in the world, regardless of what you may have been told throughout your life.

Whatever pressing need you may have, reaching out for help is your first step. I am here to support you as you start envisioning how this path forward may look like – personal changes to make, relationship patterns to undo, new skills to learn. Your painful lessons can turn into stepping-stones. As a the great poet Rumi once put it: “Your wound is the place where the light enters you,” helping you to see yourself in a new light.

Are you "stuck" in the same pattern? Do you have trouble trusting people? Are you irritable most of the time? Do you feel like you don't know yourself or your purpose? Do you feel incomplete or want meaning in life? If you answered yes to any-I believe I could be a good fit for you.
