Therapists in Colton, WA

Hello! I have lived and worked in the Pullman area for some time. I enjoy the Palouse area, getting outside to hike or mushroom hunt whenever I can. My passion is working with people who experience depression, anxiety and specifically survivors of trauma. I believe in looking holistically at someone's life and incorporating strengths, gifts, culture and other practices the client finds helpful in their lives. Most symptoms don't happen in a bubble. They occur in many aspects of our life. Currently I am only providing telehealth services. Please email with inquiries.

Maybe you’ve asked yourself what’s wrong with you. Maybe you're are at a crossroads. You’re overwhelmed and trying your best, but the pressure is huge. Sometimes our usual ways of coping stop working or aren't giving us what we need anymore. This can affect us through tension in our work and home, tiredness, or worry about ourselves and what's next. My favorite clients are those who are seeking greater self-understanding and acceptance, are wanting closer relationships, and who want to explore new ways of approaching life. I like helping clients work outside of the boxes they arrive in and believe in themselves, one step at a time.

We all have an innate longing for intimate human relationship but for many of us, we can't seem to shake this dull aching loneliness that resides in the pit of our souls. However, the inherent human need for meaningful relationships has remained elusive. Many times, it feels easier to isolate than to face the intolerable reality. We have become experts at stifling our needs and desires. But when we enter into the presence of another, when we begin to tell our stories of heartache and pain, healing begins. We need a witness to our grief, someone to join alongside us as we lament. Above all, we need a place to experience belonging.

Hello! I am so glad that you are here. Let's start the process of change together. Side-by-side we will do detective work to find out what is keeping you stuck and find ways to help support you to living with more satisfaction. My approach is one of authenticity, curiosity, openness, and even adding a little humor. The kind of clients that I like to help are those who are ready to explore a different path. I am particularly passionate about women issues, whether that is around pregnancy, child raising, or relationships. I also like finding ways to work through anxiety, depression, grief and loss with people.

The parenthood journey has its inherent rewards, but the struggles are REAL. Sometimes the weight of these struggles becomes too much, even crushing. The stress takes away from the moments you want more than anything to enjoy. The responsibilities are endless. It is common to feel alone, particularly in times of need. But know you are not alone! Whether you are trying to conceive, are pregnant, a new parent or an experienced one, help is available.

I provide support and help with a variety of issues including; depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, work and school stress, relationship challenges, health and wellness, spirituality, and life transitions. I also enjoy and specialize in working with pregnant women and new parents. My role is to offer support during the adjustment of adding a new member to the family and all of the emotions that come with this major life event.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression and trauma related disorders. I offer a unique perspective specifically for law enforcement, military and first responders and their families, as well as pregnancy, post-partum, and the journey of motherhood. My passion is for those serving and raising our communities, those who grapple with crisis, traumas of others, and/or their own traumas. I provide a safe place to debrief these experiences, identify tools to manage the aftermath, and an avenue to continue serving with pride.

I believe that we can find purpose behind our pain and the courage to bring about change. I like to draw on various approaches within therapy to ensure it is an individualized experience. I value trust and openness to be your authentic self. My goal is to find solutions and make changes!

I believe each of us has an innate desire to belong, to love, to be loved, and to find self-fulfillment — to reach our potential. Sometimes we are faced with challenges such as those brought about by anxiety or depression which can be distressing. My goal is to help my clients learn how to address and cope with stressors that may be blocking their growth and well-being. Through a person-centered counseling approach using trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques, I help my clients find ways to adjust their feelings and behaviors to improve self-awareness and to work toward self-directed change.

The period before conception, the pregnancy, and life postpartum have incredible challenges. You are not alone. It is my professional purpose to provide support to folks during those moments.

There is no distinction between the body and the mind. I advocate for overall health, which means during therapy with me you can expect we will address not only your symptoms, but also areas like sleep, nutrition, medical issues, interpersonal relationships, career/education, movement/exercise, and issues from childhood. These dimensions of wellness are all interconnected and changing one will impact the others. I provide evidence-based strategies such as relaxation skills training, psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, and gentle exposure techniques to help you face your fears so your life is a little easier.
