Adults Therapists in Spokane Valley, WA

Life can be very stressful at times. Our moods, anxiety levels, thinking and behaviors can depend on how well we are able to manage these stressors over time. Sometimes, the coping skills we have learned simply are not enough and we feel overwhelmed and out of control. There is a solution to almost every problem. My goal in therapy is to provide a safe environment so that you can learn to better manage your thinking, feeling and behavior and regain control and power in your life.

We are all involved in relationships, with others and ourselves. These relationships evolve and change over time. At times, we can feel frustrated, unappreciated, misunderstood, or just on different pages. I offer an open, warm, and engaging environment. Through a process of thoughtful discovery we will focus on strengths and build from there. Often, we already have what we need to find satisfying and fulfilling bonds. For couples this may be seeking more intimacy, for families we may work on communication, for parents of younger children we may work on growing parenting skills and increasing positive behavior from children. The possibilities are endless.

As human beings, we want healthy and happy relationships. These are vital to our emotional and mental well-being. We want to be our honest, authentic selves and trust that others will be there for us. However, despite our best efforts, things can get in the way. Our emotions, our past, anxiety and depression all affect how we interact with people we care about. Counseling allows for you to sit with someone who has no judgement toward you and your circumstances. I am simply here to help.

Throughout life, the struggles we face can leave us feeling as though we are wandering through a never-ending desert without shade, water, or comfort in sight.

Whether your desert is depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, isolation in relationships, feelings of inadequacy, or parenting challenges, I work to create a non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to share about the most vulnerable parts of your desert.
