Hi,

I believe life should bring joy. If childhood trauma, or life circumstances, are keeping you from feeling happy and enjoying life, please reach out. I use evidence-based treatment to help individuals battle anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, PTSD, and trauma. We will work together to help gain insight and learn tools to support healing.

I'm an Independent Clinical Social Worker trained at the University of Washington. Additional coursework and certifications completed through the Beck Institute and Columbia University's Prolonged Grief Program.

I use different modalities to meet each individual's needs. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Insight Oriented Therapy, Art Therapy, Somatic trauma work.

I provide active listening, in a supportive environment, while helping clients gain insight, through questioning, and interactive exercises. I provide services to adults and adolescents ages 14 and up, integrating a number of different therapeutic styles and modalities depending on what the client is experiencing.
