I’m glad you’re here. I provide a safe, supportive space for adults, teens, and couples to explore life’s challenges and create meaningful change. My approach blends CBT, Positive Psychology, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients build insight, develop practical tools, and move toward a more confident, balanced, and fulfilling life.

I am a clinical social worker and an elder millennial, just trying to survive this world like many of you. I want you to know, you don't have to go through hard things alone. Let me help you through the hardest parts of your life, while using a little humor along the way. Let's talk about it and get through it together.

If you’re here, there’s a good chance you’ve already spent time thinking about whether therapy makes sense for you. Deciding to take this step often reflects a real commitment to wanting something to feel different. I am passionate about working with people who are looking to feel less stuck and clearer in their day-to-day lives.

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.

As a mental health counselor, I provide holistic support to my clients, taking into account the emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of a person. I work with people who have anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and trauma.

I help adults manage complex emotional and behavioral challenges. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I utilize evidence-based, collaborative therapy focused on regulation and functional improvement. I teach practical skills to support sustainable change.

I am happy you came to my bio! I believe the therapy that helps the most is genuine and authentic. Therapy is a place where people can tell the truth about their lives without having to perform, defend, or pretend. When people are given the space to explore honestly, possibilities instead of limits are discovered.

I welcome you to reach out whenever you feel ready to begin. I’m here to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can be yourself. I help people who have anxiety and depression issues, as well as helping couples heal. I also work with people who have autism and ADHD.

If you're ready to take the next step toward health and growth, I'd be honored to walk with you on your journey to healing.

I focus on the well-being and quality of life of my clients, and I am always trying to think outside the box.

Together, we’ll focus on building skills & personal growth so you can get the most out of your life. Take the first step & book your session today.

If therapy were easy, you probably wouldn’t be here reading this. Recognizing you want to see something change about your life takes courage, and making that change is tough (otherwise you would have already done it, right?). Whether it’s someone to help you brainstorm ideas or teach skills, my goal is to see you go wherever you want to go.

If you’re carrying old patterns, feeling disconnected from your emotions, or relying on self-sufficiency to get by, you don’t have to do it alone. I help adults in general and LGBTQIA+ adults in particular explore the deeper stories shaping their reactions and relationships. Together, we create space for insight and new possibilities.

I truly care for all of my clients and work diligently to help find them the answers they seek. I have worked with a variety of patients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives. I have gained experience serving clients in outpatient settings, crisis centers, and inpatient psychiatric units.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming and scary. I commend you on your decision to care for your whole self. My role is to create a safe and supportive environment where you can express yourself without shame. I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

Taking steps toward better mental health can feel overwhelming. The good news is none of us are meant to go it alone. Licensed in WA since 2017, I am here to support you with warmth, compassion, and, sometimes, a dollop of humor. Let’s work together to build on the strengths you already have while gaining tools and insights along your way.

Therapy with me is collaborative, relational, and rooted in liberation, not symptom suppression. I don’t believe in passive therapy where you vent and nothing changes. I also don’t believe in cold, clinical therapy that disconnects you from your humanity. We build something real together.

I believe people can manifest their dreams to find their purpose. Are you going through major life changes, like a career shift, relationship transformation, or personal growth journey? I can help you align your inner world with your outer actions, uncover your sense of purpose and inner strength, and integrate mindfulness into everyday life.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Washington. I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work from Boise State University and a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work from Lewis-Clark State College. I have 16 years of professional experience within the social work field.

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just ready to make some personal changes? You're not alone. I work with individuals who are navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions, offering a calm and compassionate space. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you as you move toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Do you feel like you are struggling to fit in or just having a harder time than others around you? Does this make you feel isolated or distant from others? I am here to guide through your intrusive thoughts, assist with beliefs about yourself that are hindering you, and guide you to finding the support you need to discover self-acceptance.

Feeling stuck or overwhelmed? You're not alone. I help clients navigate anxiety, stress, self-doubt, and life changes with compassion. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to the life you want to create for yourself.
