Connect with Chronic Illness therapists in Bellingham, WA

Wellness begins each morning. I desire to work with you towards feeling better. Life can have success, clarity, hope, happiness, direction, peace, comfort, nurture, and love. Our therapeutic relationship is a practice towards having wellness outside of the therapy office.

I believe counseling is a powerful tool for self-discovery, identity affirmation, navigating life challenges, and building stronger relationships through collaboration. My specialties include disability, grief and loss, work/life balance, and spirituality.

I work with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or longing to feel more like themselves again. My approach is warm, relational, and depth-oriented—creating a space where you can slow down, be seen, and gently come back into connection with yourself.

I have a track record marked by depth and tenacity. I earned top honors from Barry University, then spent the next two decades serving as a Behavioral Health Specialist, Clinical Director, Consultant, and Expert Witness.

I provide strength-based individual therapy. I'm experienced in multiple areas including grief and loss, substance use, anxiety and depression, cultural strength and dissonance, elders and caregiving issues, as well as Native American concerns. I believe we all want to grow as human beings and want to provide support as you do this.

Overwhelmed, maybe feeling like no one understands what you are going through? You don’t have to go through hard things alone. I help clients through the toughest parts of their life. Whether it is navigating through anxiety, depression or grief and loss, my goal is to help you feel better, more connected and in control of your life.
