Welcome! I am a licensed counselor with expertise in providing therapy to individual children, adolescents and adults, couples and families. My passion has been on witnessing and supporting growth and change for those who have experienced traumatic life events. I also have experience working with individuals seeking personal growth, performance enhancement, and spiritual exploration. My goal is to help clients overcome emotional blocks, develop effective coping strategies, and achieve lasting positive change in their lives.
My counseling approach is rooted in empathy, compassion, attuned presence and collaboration, and tailored to meet each unique need. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgemental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, memories and traumas at their own pace. I work collaboratively with my clients, empowering them to tap into their brain's natural healing potential and guiding them towards a path of emotional well-being.
I am certified in Brainspotting, a therapeutic approach that helps overcome trauma, anxiety, other emotional challenges, and creative or performance blocks. For more information about Brainspotting, I invite you to explore my Brainspotting information page. In practice and in my own Brainspotting work, I have witnessed deep and lasting healing, expansion of goals, creative expression and so much growth. I am honored each and every time to be witness to change and healing.
I have extensive experience working with children, as well as adolescents and adults. Additionally, I have a deep understanding of family and relationship dynamics and can provide effective counseling for families and relationships seeking support and guidance to strengthen relationships and increase communication and relational connection.
I am licensed in Washington, California, and Arizona, allowing me to serve clients across and in these states.
Please feel free to reach out to me with inquiries, to schedule a 15 minute discovery call or to schedule an appointment. I look forward to working with you on your journey toward emotional well-being and personal growth.
