Addiction Therapists in Kirkland, WA
It is my goal as a counselor to create a safe space for self-reflection, exploration and compassion. It is my belief that through therapeutic collaboration, anyone is able to heal and grow. I approach counseling through a holistic and trauma-informed lens. Being a social worker means considering every aspect of an individual’s life and how those factors contribute to their mental health.

Something profound happens when your most authentic self is met with unconditional acceptance and validation. I believe Brene Brown says it best, 'Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.' To bravely give ourselves permission to show up when we're depressed, overwhelmed, hungover, irritable, enraged, lost or simply disappointed. Or when we feel we are 'too much' for some and 'not enough' for others. It can be deeply meaningful to have a space where you can fill it with all of who you are, without apology or shame, and feel truly seen and accepted.

Life can be difficult at times and can bring challenges that affect our physical, emotional, and spiritual health. In my many years of counseling experience I have worked with client's to deal with the day to day challenges that life presents as well as treating serious mental health conditions. Loss of a loved one, conflict at home or ,work can often be triggers for anxiety and depression and clients can benefit greatly from the supportive and unbiased and supportive approach that psychotherapy offers. Such types of therapy are offered in my practice with individual therapy.

Some people ask why I became a couples therapist, and my response is: "I was born a therapist." I enjoy the uniqueness of each client and their situation, how they have attempted to solve their problems, and how they are stuck. There are many situations that are similar among clients, but the interplay with each individual and their situation is infinite. Congruency for me is key. Being the person I ask others to be, holding each person with tenderness and creativity while we move toward their goals is transformative in the therapeutic process.

Some seasons (or years) of life can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, and fearful. Life can be devastatingly full of loss with little hope of recovery. I believe the best way to experience change and move towards recovery starts with acknowledging our unique strengths and resources - what are those things that keep us going? It also requires confronting the darker parts of life with a few trusted people. We are meant for connection. I would be honored to be a trusted person who walks towards healing with you. Are you open to exploring your own road of recovery with me?

So many people struggle to find happiness and balance in their lives and relationships. I can help you identify and remove the blocks to your happiness, whether they be inside of you (your thoughts, expectations and anxieties) or outside (toxic relationships, cultural barriers, etc.). I can also help you address and face the fears which hold you back, identify relationship patterns which keep you from getting what you want in love, and help you think outside the box to create novel solutions to your struggles.

Of primary importance to me is that I truly hear you, letting you know that you are understood and that our time together is a safe, nurturing place in which to heal. This helps us develop a plan together in which we can work to revise unhealthy, repetitive thought patterns and develop new ways of thinking, healthy communication tools and skills to provide that full life we wish for. I combine talk therapy with specialized therapies targeted to your specific needs and areas in which you wish to grow. Therapy is geared toward your needs, not the therapist's direction.

Welcome. Are you looking for more joy and better relationships? My training has taught me to help people examine and describe the life they have, identifying areas in which they are "stuck," and reconnect to the life-goals that motivated them. Sometimes this stuckness has to do with certain feelings, sometimes it is about past traumas, often it shows up as repeating patterns in significant relationships, and sometimes it manifests as a malaise in which a direction in life seems impossible to find.
