Connect with Therapists who accept Optum in Marysville, WA

I am a lifelong resident of Washington. I love the outdoors and my dogs. I started my career as a paramedic for 11 years before I became interested in mental health. As a social worker in an emergency room, I gained valuable experience with crisis mental health evaluations, safety planning, and working with clients struggling with substance use.

I specialize in trauma work with adolescents and adults, offering a safe space to explore and heal at your own pace. I bring authenticity and self-expression into the therapy room, often integrating art therapy and movement to support connection, expression, and growth.

I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating substance abuse, relationship issues, anxiety, and depression. I have experience supporting Veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. You'll have my cell number so you can text me if something unexpectedly comes up.

I have worked with clients from 3 to 93 years of age. I have practiced in many different settings, including outpatient mental health clinics, primary care offices, inpatient mental health units, substance use, in jails, and prisons. I have developed a well-rounded toolbox to assist my clients in achieving the life that they want to live.
