Child Therapists in North Bend, WA

You are unique and you deserve to be treated with respect. I am passionate about seeing you learn how to embrace and love who you are today and in the future. Over the years I have worked with children and adults in a variety of roles; as an educator, a cognitive development specialist, and now as a counselor. My understanding of how the brain develops, what is needed at the various developmental stages, the importance of attachment, and the impact of trauma on brain development and the body, has prepared me to effectively work with kids, teenagers, adults, and families.

I've worked as a child, family, and adult therapist since 1999. I'm committed to helping people better understand and manage events in their lives which they find challenging. In addition to child, family, and adult therapy, I also specialize in the following areas: ADD/ADHD, enhancing parenting skills, anger management, attachment issues, mood disorders, grief issues, posttraumatic stress, self-esteem, drug/alcohol problems, self exploration, career issues, depression, anxiety, oppositional/defiant behavior, and others. I am also trained to use EMDR to help people work through traumas they have been through.

Teletherapy for anxiety, panic, OCD, and selective mutism - You feel like you can’t get out of your head. You try to distract yourself, but the “what if” worries won’t stop. You ask your friends and family if the worries are “logical”, and then realize you are asking the same question over and over again. Maybe you’re experiencing feelings of panic or other anxiety that stops you from being able to do the things you want to. You want to be more social, but you go blank when you are in a new situation. You can't stop putting pressure on yourself to be "productive" which often leads to more worries.

I want you to feel heard and safe. Some things that make us human are our complex, safety-focused, and connection-centered, brains. Regardless of our similarities, we all still navigate challenges uniquely. How we approach our stories impacts how we see ourselves and the world around us. Challenges in this world are certain; this may leave us feeling scared, overwhelmed, or depressed. These difficult experiences can lead to isolation, stuckness, panic, and other uncomfortable feelings. Rather than battle it out in your relationships, or on your own, I work from a headspace of inspiring hope and seeking peace within.

When working with couples, my goal is to help resolve painful conflicts and help you and your partner to build a rich and meaningful relationship, with increased intimacy, connection, and understanding.

I believe each problem is multi-faceted and can affect many different areas of a person’s life. I believe that each person has the insight and understanding of their lives and through collaboration and therapeutic alliance, clients can access their internal resources and experience change. My clients include those from the youngest ages to the elderly. As a certified health coach from the National Society of Health Coaching I am skilled at helping those with chronic illness and the resulting lifestyle changes.
