Therapists in Winthrop, WA

Are you in low spirits? Are you spinning your wheels and finding no traction? Do you want to hide, cry or rage? Do you sometimes feel nothing at all? Enduring stress, trauma and oppression can make a person feel alone, bitter, desperate, hopeless, joyless or afraid. Sharing and processing your inner experience in therapy can crack open and shed light on unique insights and lessons your life has waiting for you.

I am passionate about helping those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and Christian spirituality. While I’m totally open to exploring your needs and adjusting my preferences, my ideal client is aged 13 – 60 with a special focus on males and masculinity. Asking for help is difficult, particularly so for men. As a male who has struggled with anxiety throughout my life, I am passionate about helping open the door to healing for men.

The journey towards mental and emotional wellness can be difficult, especially for those who have experienced trauma or painful life transitions. Each personal has an individual relationship to their experiences, feelings, thoughts, and perceptions of their past, present, and future. Each person who enters my office must be regarded as a wholly unique individual who deserves an individualized approach to whatever concerns have put them on the therapeutic path necessitating the use of adult integrative psychotherapy consisting of many approaches.

Whether it is situational stressors or more long-term issues that you are dealing with such as a chronic or pervasive mental illness, let me assist you as you walk the path of life. We can identify where there is room for healthy changes and develop a well-rounded supply of coping strategies that are tailored to you specifically to deal with those issues that cannot be changed. As a therapist I believe that each person is an individual with individual needs that must be addressed from their perspectives and abilities. I utilize several evidenced based practices to help you on your journey.

Mental health challenges can cause us to feel like we are waging a daily, silent war with ourselves. Physical tension and racing thoughts may seem to consume the entirety of your being and yet, deep down, a part of you has a sense that this is not really you. I know it is not you, too. I believe so deeply in your resilience, innate well-being, and ability to thrive beyond your current experience of anxiety and tension. I help individuals experiencing OCD, eating disorders, generalized anxiety, and patterns of addiction to live a life beyond symptom management.

You are seeking out counseling, which may mean you feel overwhelmed and have found that your normal ways of coping are no longer working. Maybe you're in a transition such as graduation, a career change, or a relationship ending. Maybe you are feeling hopelessness or despair, struggling to stay afloat. Whatever your specific situation, your gut is telling you that you need some help to move through this struggle. Reaching out for help takes a lot of courage. Through my own healing journey and work with clients, I have experienced first-hand how our most painful times can be the birthplace of transformation, growth, and inspiration.

Specialties include: overcoming depression cycles, infidelity, couples counseling (bringing romance and intimacy back), and critical insight as you adjust to a new normal that may be frightening. How many times have you said: "I know better, but I keep repeating the same mistakes over and over?"

I am a mental health counselor and I specialize in trauma, depression and anxiety, incorporating CBT, Narrative Therapy, and art. I am a trauma-informed therapist. I know the word trauma is both scary and popular right now. My graduate degree was pointed towards PTSD and that's the space I like to work in. This doesn't mean that other mental health issues cannot be addressed during our work together. I like to get a detailed history of one's life, to include childhood and relationships history, past and current coping skills, some of which might have become more detrimental than helpful.
