I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Washington. I graduated from Northwest University with a Masters in Counseling Psychology. I have been practicing since 2012 in a variety of settings with a variety of populations. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Washington.
My approach integrates several different modalities based on your preference and individualized needs. My primary therapy modality is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) due to it's efficacy in reducing physical, emotional and cognitive distress as a result of past hurts. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Mindfulness in my practice.
Typically the first couple of sessions are a conversation focusing on getting to know one another and collecting information about your current and past experiences that have influenced your decision to start therapy. We will then collaboratively identify goals and decide on an approach and a treatment plan. Periodically, we will revisit these goals to determine if we are on the right track or if changes need to be made to better address your concerns. I am always open to your feedback.
