Anxiety Therapists in Clinton, WA

I'm passionate about helping individuals and families harness their strengths and motivations to create positive change in their lives. With over a decade of experience in the mental health field, I've developed a unique approach that blends various therapeutic methods, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, trauma-informed practices, and existential therapy. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, PTSD, mood and behavior disorders, or anxiety, I'm here to support you on your journey towards healing. Let's connect and work together to achieve your goals and find a brighter path forward.

I have worked successfully with many people with many different diagnoses. Whether it's past trauma or abuse, depression, grief and loss, anger, anxiety, mood instability or low self esteem, I compassionately guide my clients in re-claiming their natural state of health and well being. I am committed to and respect the inherent human quality in all of my clients.

Anxiety, depression and other issues can take us off guard, blindsiding us by suddenly challenging our confidence, undermining our autonomy, and bringing to mind some of our most difficult experiences. It is common to assume these problems will go away on their own or if we just take a break. It is my experience that over time these problems reoccur in even more confusing and disorienting ways that might lead to crisis, leaving us feeling even more isolated and vulnerable. Sometimes the most difficult step is just asking for help, to place ourselves in a position of vulnerability.

Are you sick and tired of feeling bad? Call me! For over 20 years, Internal Family Systems has been my primary modality. I had the very good fortune of being able to train with its founder: Dr Richard Schwartz. My clients and I continue to be amazed at how effective IFS is for healing old trauma and staying clear, calm, centered and curious in the face of new experiences that life brings. Or at least knowing how to get back to that state quickly. How great is that? And, like every psychotherapist I know, I also have a toolbox of things that can help you along the way.

My clients are multi-dimensional people - with physical, psychological and spiritual needs - who are doing the best they can to have a gratifying and meaningful life. My role as a therapist is to assist each person to expand their awareness of self and interactions with others, and to identify and change unsatisfying patterns and behaviors. Partners: When couples first start counseling, they often have a lot of anger, hurt, and sadness. Couples therapy is designed to find solutions to problems, express and let go of resentments, rebuild trust through good communication, and learn to live with different points of view.

Congratulations for getting this far in your quest to enrich your life! Calling me (or any therapist) can be another challenging step. I offer a FREE 30-minute session to help you find the best person to assist you. My Therapeutic Approach revolves around you and your goals. My training supports our collaboration for your success attaining the life you want and deserve drawing on Family Systems Theory, Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM), EMDR, Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT), Voice Dialogue, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Processing (NLP), and Motivational Interviewing (MI), all within a holistic approach.

I have been practicing in WA since 2006 and before that Hawaii. I work with women only and phase of life issues. I have been trained in cognitive and dialectical therapy, have worked with addictions although no certified in the State. I welcome new Women clients on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays 8 to 3

I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated to become the best version of themselves. I want to walk alongside you and assist you in your own personal development. I believe that my role is to assist in facilitating your healing journey, provide feedback and encouragement, and allow for educational opportunities; however, you're doing the actual work of changing behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. I provide services outside of my full-time job and only see clients during the evenings, weekends, and holidays. I will get to know you as an individual and we will work from there!

Eclectic treatment approach, drawing from a spectrum of techniques and schools of thought, and applying them as they seem useful to each client and his or her situation. Integrative and strengths-based.
