Lifespan Integration, CIMBS, and mindfulness work ground my practice.
The human experience presents opportunities, obstacles and constant change. Oftentimes, the challenges we face feel overwhelming and prevent us from seeing the possibility for growth, while the pace of living interferes with our ability to stay focused on the present moment where creative possibility abides. The distractions we all use to keep us from pain do not serve us anymore, but we are left wondering how to live without them. Navigating challenge and finding new possibility are sometimes difficult to accomplish on our own.

I use existential, cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, and psychodynamic techniques.
I provide therapy for children dealing with emotional and behavioral issues, adolescents dealing with life transitions, and adults seeking emotional support and guidance. I have a strong passion for the work I do. Clients find me warm, caring and genuine. I create an atmosphere of safety that allows space for sharing and exploration. I will stimulate, challenge, and support you throughout the therapeutic process. I come from a family systems orientation. I like to involve parents when working with children and adolescents, taking care to maintain the child or teenager’s sense of safety and confidentiality.

I draw from multiple counseling approaches including mindfulness based cognitive behavioral therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD and other trauma-informed approaches, solution-focused, and existential therapy.
Positive change is possible when we are supported in identifying and harnessing strengths and building the capacity to understand ourselves more deeply and compassionately. Therapy begins with building a meaningful understanding of client experiences and goals and collaborating to build a beneficial approach. I have experience providing mental health counseling for a wide range of clients and presenting issues since 2012. In addition to individual treatment, I have completed Gottman level II training to provide evidenced-based couple's counseling.

My approach to therapy is rooted in evidence-based practices, such as Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), motivational interviewing (MI) and mindfulness, with techniques of reframing and encouragement of positive self-talk being staples of my practice.
Welcome! Making the choice to prioritize yourself and invest in your well-being is a big step and I am glad you're here. I have a passion for and primarily work with women who are looking to reconnect with themselves. Women who are leaders in all aspects of life, be it concurring the school drop-off line, being a boss or managing the day to day. Women who are looking for tools or to develop coping strategies to manage anxiety, life transitions, communication and more. I also enjoy working with healthcare workers in the areas of stress management and identification or refresh of the “why” related to the work that they do.

My belief is that each person is uniquely capable of transforming their lives with the right kind of support. The way that we handle life stressors, how we view our past and how we enact change are always evolving. I’m here to partner with you through that process using a strengths based, mindful approach that examines what’s working for you and what needs adjusting. If you are experiencing grief, my goal is to help you and/or your child integrate the reality of your loss into your daily lives in a healthy, meaningful way.

My strength is in making you feel supported and accepted, by using a person-centered, collaborative approach to help you find a way forward out of habitual but ineffective ways of coping with life events. Coping with inevitable life change can be painful and difficult, resulting in anxiety, depression and other forms of distress. My specialty is facilitating and guiding the process of developing an understanding of the varied life influences that have brought you to this point and to help you change habitual but unsatisfactory patterns of behavior.

In my training and career, I specialized in treating children with behavioral difficulties and adults suffering from anxiety, depression and stress. In working with children, my approach includes collaboratively working with the child and their family through their presenting issues and helping institute sustainable changes to foster individual growth in the child and relational growth in the family. This often includes psycho-education and coaching for parents in addition to individual therapy for the child. In working with adults I utilize a range of methods from existential to behavioral depending on the specific needs of the individual.

Please know that I respond fastest to texts to 360-205-1870 (preferred) or emails. Counseling should be compassionate, accessible, and affordable so that you feel safe navigating the process as an opportunity that can help make the changes. We all need to reach out for support when days become overwhelming and we are prevented from living the quality of life that we want. Your journey is a collaborative approach so we will work to find what we feel is the best fit. I plan on supporting you down your path of self-authorship where you'll work to trust yourself, reflect on experiences, learn coping skills, and lead your life.

We all deserve to feel at home and safe in our bodies and minds, and it’s my passion to help you find this place. If you're not feeling at home with yourself right now, the question is not "what's wrong with me?", but rather, "what happened to me?". There is a reason you're struggling the way you are, and we'll curiously and compassionately look for these answers together, while developing ways for you to tend to your body and mind. It's not always an easy journey, but it's the most important one.

I believe that we are all experts in our own lives and have an innate ability to overcome adversity. But sometimes it's just too hard to do alone. My goal as a psychotherapist is to offer you tools to understand and claim your strengths, tap into your inner wisdom, and move towards a more fulfilling life. Most importantly, my approach is gentle and non-judgmental.

I am currently full. Welcome to a nurturing space where you need not face life's challenges alone. I understand the weight of worst-case scenarios and the drowning out of reason. Life transitions can be daunting, especially if you deviate from the heteronormative path. My approach is warm, laid-back, and compassionate. Our work is based on trust, respect, and your goals.

I am primarily an Art Therapist. I love making and processing art with clients from all walks of life. Oftentimes we're carrying pain that isn't ours to carry, or pain that we feel protects us. The art allows us to converse with parts of ourselves we have tucked away in order to protect ourselves. Adult clients who come in, ready to look at themselves and heal pain that has plagued them are a joy to walk alongside in their journey. I am also experienced and greatly enjoy working with children and teenagers who are nursing hurt that needs to be expressed. Kids and teens who have experienced grief and trauma can find safety in art.

Often times in life, hardship and trauma force us to sever the connection to our authentic self in order to survive. This may show up in your life as anxiety or depression, difficulty in managing your emotions, or maybe it's just noticing that it's a little harder to make it through each day. Whatever needs may be seeking your attention, I am here to offer empathetic and compassionate support. My goal in working with clients is to help them discover ways they can leave survival mode behind and regain access to their intuition and authentic self.
