Therapists in Lakewood, WA

Hello there and thank you for reaching out! I love working with individuals, couples, and families to help repair and grow their lives and relationships. I work with variety of issues, but specialize in working with depression, anxiety, infertility, life changes, and navigating problematic relationships in your life. Whether you need to manage a stage of life or process existential dread about the state of the world, therapy provides a great and incredibly rewarding experience. As such, I am honored to work with people every day improving their lives. (Licensed in both TX and WA / evening appointments available).

I believe that life transitions are a time to celebrate life and an opportunity for great growth. As director of the BLOOM Maternal and Infant Wellness Program, I specialize in supporting women and their families through the transition to parenthood. A unique and often challenging time punctuated with endings and new beginnings. Women and their families need and deserve to be nurtured and supported during this time. My areas of expertise include: The prevention and treatment of pregnancy and postpartum depression and anxiety, promoting healthy parent-child attachment, as well as strengthening and “baby-proofing” relationships.

The work we do is collaborative; it requires us both to be present and fully committed to your journey. My clients are honest about their strengths, virtues, successes and growth areas; curious about their emotions, triggers, and patterns; and committed to designing their lives in a meaningful way. Depending on their inner resources, needs, and concerns, I utilize a tailored, strengths-based approach to promote useful life goals through insight and action. This can be achieved by integrating a variety of modalities, both evidence and non-evidence based; and drawing from my personal, professional and spiritual background.

I am a compassionate and dedicated therapist with a deep commitment to helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am dedicated to facilitating positive transformation by emphasizing the here and now, encouraging clients to become more aware of their present experiences. I aim to help my clients connect more deeply with themselves and their emotions, fostering personal growth and self-discovery.

Are you feeling a little “off” lately? Down, anxious or unsure what comes next in life—especially after the last year or so? Perhaps relationships aren’t working out or problematic patterns you want to quit just keep popping up. Maybe you find yourself struggling with old wounds that need care and attention. Or it could be you just don’t feel like yourself and you’re not sure why.

From the outside it seems like you have it all together, so why aren't you content? Maybe it's work, your relationships, or something else you can't quite put your finger on. Maybe you're struggling with feelings of sadness, unfulfillment, or pain. Maybe you find it difficult to relax, be present, and are constantly looking forward to when you'll finally be happy. Whatever it is, it doesn't feel good, and it definitely doesn't have to be this way. In therapy, I will work to build a collaborative relationship where we can explore these feelings together, and help you to tap into a life that holds more meaning, ease, and fulfilment.

Hypnosis is a powerful tool that can transform your life! I've been a WA State Licensed Hypnotherapist and Board Certified Hypnotist for well over thirty years. I have helped thousands of individuals change their lives by connecting them with the power lying dormant within their subconscious mind.

Then to help you overcome any obstacle that is blocking your well-being, happiness, and success using hypnotherapy. The question most commonly asked is, can I be hypnotized. The answer is always, you already are.

I work with patients who reside in either Washington and Arizona. As a licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 years experience, I assist individuals in navigating mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relational issues and ADHD. I take an interpersonal neurobiological approach as I work to understand each individual's concerns, challenges and goals through the lens of the brain and behavior. My goal is always to help patients learn skills and strategies which empower them to navigate their lives in ways that best support their mental health.

I aim to provide a supportive, judgement free environment. As my client, your wants and needs will become a priority. As a team we will work together to reach your goals. I work hard to understand my clients worldview while also maintaining the ability to share outside perspective. I believe that with the right support everyone has the ability to live a fulfilling life. If you are searching for support, healing, understanding, perspective, or challenge I would love to help you with your journey.

Each of our lives contain periods of both great suffering and great joy. Most of these experiences are unpredictable and beyond our control, but there are resources that can help us reduce our emotional suffering and experience more wellbeing. My hope is to provide a gracious space for clients to authentically navigate the complexities of life and to support them as they access their own inner wisdom. This work often requires sifting through messages we have internalized over the years. I’m here to support my clients in this discovery and healing process and to help them develop concrete resources to utilize in real life.
