About

I am licensed in Washington with 15 years of professional work experience. I have a wide spectrum of experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & anger/mental illness/lifestyle management. This experience covers many levels of intervention and care for a wide range of people groups, including teens.

Because every person is unique with common basic needs, I have adopted a relational approach that utilizes intervention to address individual issues. My approach has been developed by working in the "trenches" with, not only, individuals who are underserved, marginalized, and stigmatized but with those who struggle with hopelessness, helplessness, and coping with life situations. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek out a more satisfying and fulfilling life and to take the first steps toward change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I look forward to being able to join you in those efforts.
