10 years of experience as a mental health therapist

I am a fully Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Washington State, and Independently Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Ohio. I provide therapy to individuals via telehealth. I received my Master of Arts in Psychology, Child, Couple, and Family Therapy at Antioch University in 2015. I have been providing individual and family therapy since 2013. I work with individuals who seek to repair relationships, heal from low self-esteem, improve communication skills, recover from burnout and compassion fatigue, career stress, life transitions, parenting concerns, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, autism spectrum, ADHD, and traumatic stress. I work best with a client who is ready to make changes in their life. I can provide a coaching style approach. My clients tend to be eager to improve and are very self-aware. My clients tend to struggle to process their emotions and slow down. I am designated as a CCTP, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, through Evergreen Certifications as of 2023. I draw from evidence-based, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Informed Care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Family Systems Theory. I work with the client each step of the way to identify which methods work well with them and pivot as needed. I provide creative and active therapy, you won’t just be taught skills you will be walked through them in session, and that includes but is not limited to breathwork, grounding, mindfulness skills, and assertive communication skills. The client is expected to follow up with these skills in practice at home, alongside possible homework material for best results. I fully believe everyone has the answers to their life questions within themselves, and my job is simply to facilitate inner healing, connection, and growth. I am passionate about providing therapy with compassion. I find that I tend to help people feel validated, set and meet goals, feel more confident and more aligned with the life they want to live. I value a stable connection first and foremost, healing can more easily occur when we feel seen, heard, and understood.

I work with individuals or couples to utilize the main components of cognitive behavioral therapy, behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based therapies. Cognitive therapy focuses mainly on thought patterns as responsible for negative emotional and behavioral patterns. When working with clients, I make the therapy experience safe, respectful, authentic and affirming. You are the narrator and navigator of your life. You are the expert with unique values and needs. I enjoy working with clients open to making changes and creating meaningful fulfillment. ​ SPECIALTIES • Solution Focused • Coping with Life Changes • Grief/Loss • Stress and Anxiety • Depression • Life Coaching Also experienced in: Family conflicts, Parenting Issues, Relationship Issues, Self-Esteem, Anger Management, Grief/Loss, Life Transitions, Career, Coaching, Adoption and Foster Care, LGBTQ+, Guilt and Shame, Infidelity, Isolation/Loneliness, and, Jealousy Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy Years of (clinical) Experience: 15 My focus is on providing a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space for adults, couples, and families to share their experiences and to help them navigate through positive or negative experiences to improve their lives and find purpose.

Find a therapist under any of these distinctions and know that the sessions they offer can provide a safe place to heal.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Lake Forest Park?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Lake Forest Park therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance.

Lake Forest Park therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs.

A Lake Forest Park therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Lake Forest Park counselor?

Before seeing your Lake Forest Park therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in Lake Forest Park.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A Lake Forest Park licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy with a Lake Forest Park counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Lake Forest Park, Washington can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
