About

I am licensed in the state of Washington with 8 years of professional work experience with both teens and adults. I have experience in helping clients with a wide range of concerns from stress and anxiety to coping with addictions, overcoming the impact of trauma and abuse, as well as working to improve motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without the fear of judgment. Some of the modalities that I may utilize are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical and Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational interviewing (MI), Compassion focused Therapy (CFT), Eye-movement and Desensitization Therapy (EMDR), and others that may seem appropriate to meet your therapy needs.

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