Sometimes life is hard. "Things fall apart, the center cannot hold," the poet tells us. But we do not have to go it alone. My primary role is to come alongside you as you journey in the way of wellness. I really believe in the strength that is in you. And I believe that we can work together to leverage it toward your goals. I believe that you are unique and will relate to you accordingly. I have been practicing counseling for 16 years in a variety of capacities and settings. My approach is collaborative, eclectic, and solution-focused. My style is calm and conversational. I utilize a variety of interventions, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Behavioral Activation. I work with people with a wide range of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, and mood disturbances. I also have a strong interest in spiritual issues, and am happy to work with people of faith, or people struggling with faith-related issues. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Social Work in 2004 from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, OK, and a Master's in Social Work in 2009 from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Hawaii. I am a parent of four girls, a lifelong musician, a bread baker, gardener, lover of forests and baseball. I ride my bike when I can and sometimes do experiments in my kitchen (some of which do not end well).

I am a dual licensed mental health counselor with licenses in both substance-abuse and mental health disorders. In my time as a counselor I have worked with a broad client base, including people struggling with major depressive disorder, bi-polar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, relationship conflicts both professional and personal, family problems, and substance abuse disorders. I have been greatly honored to walk with some very brave and inspiring people and look forward to working to more people who are ready to make real changes to their lives. My approach looks to first establish an environment of unconditional positive regard in which a person can feel safe to bring out the most authentic parts of their lives and make meaning out their struggles. I do this by combining cognitive behavioral theories, emotion focused treatment, and mindfulness. Each person I connect with will have a personalized approach that will help them find the places in his/her life that can bring about a better quality of living.

As a therapist, my approach is contemporary and uniquely tailored to each client. Everyone has the answers within themselves and sometimes needs the proper guidance to trust their intuition and develop essential skills for life's complexities. My style is direct yet comforting and solution-focused, ideal for busy individuals who use therapy as a pitstop to reflect and reset. I have extensive experience helping individuals navigate relationship concerns and substance and behavioral addictions, as well as assisting people to become the best versions of themselves. I emphasize accountability, providing assignments to help adopt healthy habits for lifelong change. I specialize in guiding individuals and couples through the complexities of relationships using methods like the Gottman Method and Imago Therapy. I welcome all types of relationships, including kink-friendly and polyamorous dynamics. My approach focuses on helping couples create stronger connections by encouraging self-reflection and personal growth. Additionally, I support clients navigating the dating scene and those working through challenges such as infidelity, aiming to foster healthier, more fulfilling relationships. I specialize in working with clients who possess a foundational level of self-healing and are seeking to navigate challenging situations with resilience. I do not work with individuals in crisis or experiencing severe mental health symptoms, as my therapeutic approach is best suited for those prepared to engage in solution-focused strategies for personal growth. I exclusively offer live chat sessions as my chosen modality. This approach minimizes barriers to care, providing a comfortable and accessible platform for clients. Many individuals find they can express themselves more effectively in writing and better retain new mental health interventions when they read them. Are you ready to reach a new level of optimal wellness, break down mental blocks, and face challenges head-on with self-compassion and empowerment? Let's work together and make it happen!

I’m a licensed therapist in Alabama and Washington State with years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I work especially well with motivated people navigating medical anxiety, repetitive or body-focused habits, and the stress of feeling stuck in unfulfilling relationships. Many of my clients come to therapy with clear goals and a strong sense of independence — they’re ready to do the inner work and want a space where they can feel safe, seen, and empowered. Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back and move toward more fulfilling connections, increased self-trust, and the future you envision. My approach is collaborative, grounded, and attuned to both where you are now and where you’re headed.

I'm a licensed therapist in Washington state with more than 30 years of professional experience. I specialize in supporting individuals who are navigating complex life transitions. I offer a client centered, compassionate and affirming therapeutic approach across diverse backgrounds. If we work together, we'll be exploring the here and now, including with what's happening under the hood. We'll be exploring your attitudes, feelings, fears, desires, memories and defenses, some of which may have worked when you were very young but are no longer working as well now. I have extensive experience in relationship and intimacy issues, navigating the grief process, midlife transitions, focus and memory issues, ethnic minority issues, sexual/gender-related issues (GLBTQ+) and the existential storms accruing to the moment. Fundamentally, I’m a gestalt therapist with a smattering of Milton Erickson (hypnosis), Bruce Lee ("Be as water"), family systems, post-Jungian thought and a lot other things, including an abiding interest in what is called the contact boundary, which is the place where you and I may meet. My objective is to offer a safe space where clients can GROW while exploring their AUTHENTIC selves . That means working through stuck places, conflicts and challenging emotions. It's a process, however, not a head trip or a destination point. You're not a widget. You're not a product. You're not a version. Therapy with me isn't like going to a Chinese restaurant where clients are encouraged to order-up the best version of themselves from a menu. My approach, in contrast, will encourage you to identify the unfinished business from the past that is seeking closure in the present (standard operating procedure for a Gestalt therapist) while acknowledging all the various versions of yourself. That doesn't mean you have to like them all but trying to corral/control them through an act of ego and volition is, IMO, neither an optimal nor a sustainable solution.
