Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Arlington, WA

Most clients come to me from the military and emergency services but I also work with many relationships as they struggle with anxiety and mild depression, largely stemming from work-related stress and a lack of work-life balance. They are highly motivated and self-aware, acknowledging their need for help and actively seeking it. They have a supportive network but feel isolated in their experiences, yearning for a space to express their feelings without judgment. They also want to explore underlying issues contributing to their mental health challenges, such as perfectionism and fear of failure.

Be the author of your own story. I’m here to navigate the twists and turns of mental health with you. My approach to therapy is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can address their mental health needs without judgement. With the necessary tools and skills at our disposal it is easier to identify triggers, notice warning signs, and find ways to better prepare for oncoming stressors and challenges. Therapy looks different for all individuals, and we will work together to create a plan to reach your goals. I'm passionate about helping you achieve your best self through therapy and support.

Life can be difficult, painful, wonderful, confusing, and more. As a therapist it is my goal to provide space in this complicated world for people to feel seen and heard, learn about their difficulties and create positive change. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. I am most interested in helping clients understand how environmental dynamics of past and present have come to impact a person, then learn to shift from unhelpful to more helpful patterns of living. Those I have worked with often tell me that I am honest, caring, silly, and “down to Earth”.

Life is a journey full of transformation, change and wonder. I hope to be a part of your journey assisting you with navigating through life's challenges. I work towards providing a safe space for clients to freely express their emotions, thoughts, and experiences. I am here to listen compassionately and work collaboratively with you towards accomplishing your therapeutic goals. I truly believe that you are the expert on your life. That each individual has inherent worth and uniqueness.

My experience is primarily with adults, though I am also interested in working with teens. I have worked with individuals all along the treatment spectrum, from inpatient hospitals, detox facilities, outpatient programs, and people in crisis. I specialize in trauma, including PTSD, mood and anxiety disorders, psychosis, and substance use disorders.

I'm Currently Accepting New Clients! Are you struggling with the transition of becoming a mom while also navigating your relationships, a work life balance, and/ or taking time for yourself? Or maybe you're going through another big life transition (divorce, job change, big move, etc.) and you're unable to cope with it all on your own. We live in a fast paced world where it is easy to become stressed out and overwhelmed and we no longer have the communal support of our family, neighbors, and friends, so our symptoms have only intensified. But you are not alone and transformation is possible. The life you want is possible!

In our common pursuit to gain peace and contentment in our daily lives there are times we may find ourselves needing the additional support of a counselor. The decision to seek additional support is not one to be taken lightly, as the counseling relationship is key in the journey to wellbeing and personal growth.

If you're grappling with the loss of a beloved animal companion, navigating the journey of grief, I'm here to offer support tailored to your needs.

People treated at Westwinds Behavioral Health get better. The front line treatment is predominantly CBT (cognitive-behavioral therapy) along with Narrative Therapy. Clients prioritize & identify goals they desire to reach. They learn the tools to construct the functionality & desired outcomes for their lives. Therapy is a client centered approach regardless of the presenting issues. When things are not working out in life folks discover that each of us has within us resources to author our desired next chapter of life. Personalized success is identified by individual, couple & family accomplishment & achieving desired results.

Often the goal of therapy is for clients to develop the capacity to resolve personal problems with the support of a therapist. The clinicians at Counseling Services for Wellbeing work collaboratively with the clients to build on their existing strengths, enhance relationships, increase and procure a support system and obtain the necessary skills and tools to lead a happier and more fulfilling life. We strive to work in a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, tailoring to each client’s individual needs and goals to help achieve the personal growth they are striving for.

I work primarily with adults, adolescents, and teens. My specialty is individuals and families affected by mood disorders (bipolar & depression) and associated trauma. I work also with individuals and their family affected by schizophrenia, trauma, anxiety, sexual abuse & assault, dissociative disorders, psychosis, and autism (ASD). Counseling with individuals is collaborative. Your identified issues and goals inform our treatment plan. In therapy we will look at your relationships since the complexity and intensity of many of our challenges are revealed and rooted in relationship.

Changes and transitions are hard for all of us. Sometimes they can be great things like a new job, relationship or family member and other times they are hard changes like a death or the loss of something important to us. Other times they are the result of a trauma that may be recent or may have happened a while ago. I have several years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, families and couples adapt creatively to these transitions in order to help them become the person they were created to be.

The process of seeking and making the decision to come to therapy can be a challenging one. The state of the world today presents unique challenges for each of us. People are afraid, overwhelmed and "stuck". My hope is to ease some of these concerns around starting our work together to build a strong therapeutic relationship that will aid you in progressing towards your goals. The secure and supportive therapeutic space, which we will create together, will allow you to explore past and present issues where you feel stuck.

I believe in a strengths-based empowerment approach, working together with clients to overcome challenges and find solutions. Helping people find their true authentic self and live a life they love is what I love about being a therapist!
