I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and and Art Therapist with 20 years of clinical experience practicing in Washington State. I studied at Antioch University Seattle and graduated in 2003. I have primarily focused on treating youth and adolescents both in a community mental health setting as well as in my private practice. I really enjoy working with young people and with the systems that surround them.

I see myself as client-centered and very much that I am just there to support you, the client, in your own process of change.

The issues I work with in therapy are mind-body issues. I do not have a mental illness approach. What is good for the body is good for the brain and vice versa. My openness and inclusivity influence my approach to therapy. I do not judge. I accept. I am more interested in your uniqueness than your diagnosis and I expect a full recovery in treatment. I fit well with expectations from a person who is here on their own volition, is willing and open to change, and is trying to develop resiliency in life, problem-solving without drama in relationships, and self-respect. I try my best to provide a secure space and collaborate. I take notes and I read them at the end of the session. As opposed to homework, I offer experiments to try between conversations. Depending on preference, I can be direct in helping people identify their goals by collaborating on a treatment plan. I can also be non-direct and identify our goals through the flow of the conversation. A first session with me begins with a casual greeting and formalities regarding confidentiality, rights, and risk assessment questions, followed by a lead-in question to get the ball rolling.
