We are able to do telehealth video sessions and in person office sessions.

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. Our 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.

With children, we use play and creative art therapy, which helps children feel understood and empowered, gain greater self-awarenesss and work toward healthy development, social skills and individuation. These therapies allow children to explore and grow in a non-threatening environment. With adolescents and adults, we utilize both talk and art therapies that are highly effective in exploring and supporting new behaviors and thinking.

The counselors in my agency use a family systems orientation which focuses on treating the whole family through individual counseling, couples counseling and family counseling.  We believe that empowering the entire family better meets the needs of each individual and provides a sound foundation for future growth.

I use art techniques, sand tray, play and talk therapy to help children and adults process their feelings in a comfortable manner.  I believe the client should be in the driver’s seat and I provide tools and support to achieve the client’s goals.

I have 19+ years of experience working with the Department of Children and Family Services and the foster care system.  I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey to growth and healing.

In alignment with person-centered counseling, I believe in establishing a brave space of acceptance, authenticity and empathy in a therapeutic relationship.  I am passionate about mental health awareness and empowering individuals to awaken their dreams and use their voices.  I seek to walk with each client to hold their struggles, hear their stories, celebrate their wins, and cheer them on.  As a result, clients have the freedom to gain personal insight and authentically examine well-being and create change as needed.  I take on this role with honor and humility.

I value methods that best align with client preferences and learning styles.  Approaches may include DBT, expressive arts, interactive activities, psychoeducation, creating storylines, and holding space.  I have experience supporting a wide range of demographics and appreciate working through a multicultural and trauma-informed lens.

I earned my Masters in Counseling from Gonzaga University and am a National Certified Counselor.  I enjoy life with my husband, three energetic children and two dogs.  We love exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest and spending time creating memories.  I am also an artist and avid thrift store shopper.  I look forward to connecting with you.

Have you ever felt rejected or misunderstood by your family or friends?  Have you felt that you are a people pleaser and still feel you are not receiving the care and support you need?  As a therapist working with children, families and couples, I strive to uncover and empower individuals to find their authentic self and differentiate themselves from family and social groups that have an impact on how we view ourselves.  I will work with you to find obstacles that prevent the human connection we all seek and work together to help you achieve your goals.

I specialize in families and couples in intimate relationships to nurture change and development in communication styles and interactions during stressful situations where each person feels heard and understood by family and others in the subsystem.  Theoretical approaches I use are Internal Family Systems Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory, and Gottman Theory.

I spend time with my clients to provide a safe environment to express innermost thoughts so we can work together to minimize the impact of traumatic events or diagnoses by processing and providing coping strategies.

I moved to Washington state seven years ago after working in the legal field for 20 years in Sacramento and San Francisco, California.  I earned my Masters in Counseling from Grand Canyon University and my post-graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy.  I have seven years of working with clients in inpatient and outpatient setting in privately owned corporate facilities and with offenders released from the prison system.

Working with clients is a high privilege for me.  I work with many different backgrounds and ethnicities and work to provide secure spaces for clients.  I use a holistic approach, covering physical, mental, social and spiritual needs.  In my practice I utilize many different therapeutic modalities including CBT, DBT, emotion-focused and expressive art therapies.

I look for ways to help you cope through eliminating catastrophizing, working through grief processing and other co-ocurring issues.  I seek to understand why and where these issues originate.  If this resonates with you, I would love to help!  Le’ts start your journey of healing today!
