Adults Therapists in Battle Ground, WA
Therapy isn't mysterious. It's a conversation that helps you create clarity about your feelings, what you really need or want, and how to get there. My photo shows me years ago enjoying a hike in Yellowstone. I also enjoy my clients. It is refreshing to provide a comfortable place for you to express your true feelings, to problem-solve and clarify your thinking. It is OK to seek help. Emotional overload happens to everyone. Your problem doesn't define your value. Imagine newborn babies. They are all equal and valuable. Self-limiting beliefs are "learned" later. It is an essential understanding that your true self is perfect.

I have over thirty years of clinical experience helping clients find lasting change in their lives. My clinical focus is treating depression, anxiety, and trauma. I have specialized training in treating complex trauma including dissociative disorders. When working with trauma, the healing process can often be frightening and painful to address. Talk alone is not enough and can be retraumatizing in some cases. I use EMDR. My goal is to provide a professional, yet personal atmosphere where you can experience comfort and safety in exploring what is troubling you and find effective tools and skills that you can use in your life.

You're overwhelmed by your stress & anxiety, and frankly by emotions in general. Maybe people tell you that you are too sensitive, and you believe them. You hate that you feel so much all of the time. To protect yourself you work hard to "be normal." You try to keep your emotions in check by numbing, or over-doing, or holding yourself back, or isolating. What you don't know, yet, is your sensitivity is your unique gift, and that all of your strategies have served you well in the past, but may need a bit of an update to support you better as life continues to change and you continue to evolve.

I enjoy working with individuals to create better, more satisfying relationships with themselves and all others. I typically help clients to see the big picture and to gain more compassion, confidence, understanding, and successful coping skills. Most clients experience a significant reduction in anxiety, depression, anger, and other distressing emotions. I am comfortable helping clients work through traumatic events past or present. If you want to feel better, I would love to help you.

Ahh TEENAGERS! Is your teen going through a hard time? Or giving you a hard time? You are worried that it might even get worse. Raising teens can be challenging. The fact is -- you don't have to navigate the teen years alone. I equip teens to deal with anxiety and depression, build healthy relationships with family and peers, and make good life choices. I am also a supportive guide to the parents of teens. I coach them to parent from the heart and build healthy family relationships.

As a semiretired Psychologist, I do not have an office and visit my client(s) in their home or office anywhere in Clark county. I am married to a Marriage and Family Therapist and understand the difficulties that couples have even with our level of knowledge. I help each member of the couple rise above the conflict and participate in healing their relationship by encouraging personal responsibility and self-disclosure and by getting in touch with the goodness in each person and the love they are missing.

Sometimes in life we may feel “stuck” and unsure how to move, overwhelmed, or alone. We may experience depression or anxiety, go through an experience that leaves us shaken, or hit the end of our rope and burnout. For some of us, we reach a place in life where we lose touch with ourselves or perhaps even come to a crossroads where we have a drastic shift in our understanding of the world and question all that we have known. It is in these times where we may be looking for extra support and need a calm, compassionate space to be seen…

My passion for working with first responders started during the summer of 2020 during the riots in downtown Portland as I watched day after day of officers on the front lines and kept thinking to myself, "who's keeping an eye out for them?" I have enjoyed learning more about first responder culture and ways I can combine that with my counseling background to help provide first responders with the ability to navigate life outside of the uniform as well as they do while wearing one. This also involves helping them manage the day to day stressors of what they are seeing and doing in response to increasing call volumes.

My approach to therapy is based on a cognitive behavioral model, helping individuals learn how to cope with intense feelings and overcome struggles through addressing both the mind and the body. I believe knowledge is power, therefore I tailor my approach to each individual yet I primarily utilizes education, skill building and challenging unhealthy thinking styles to bring about change. Of course, I attempt to mix this with the right amount of encouragement to help you get the support you cannot always get from those around you. I work with any and all individuals, ages 13 and up, regardless of personal beliefs and identities.

Parenting is the hardest job. You've dong everything you can think of to support your kids. And still they struggle. You’re doing whatever you can think of. You’ve sat with teachers, talked with doctors, argued long into the night. Nothing has helped. You’re to the point where you just want to quit. And you feel terrible about it. I get it. I've been there. Your temper is short, you feel grouchy all the time, and time spent at the office feels like a vacation. This was not in the job description.
