My world view is flexible and my understanding is strong concerning multicultural issues in clinical practice. As confident as I am of my acumen, being able to communicate when things aren't working, and then offering to refer the client to another professional who may be able to better aid them makes me a good, self-aware and humble counselor As for my theoretical orientation, I have a fondness for Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which has its merits working with substance abuse patients. However, Person Centered Theory (PCT) and Narrative Theory (NT) are what I perceive will be using with my clientele as follows: My PCT approach would attend to the natural potential to self-actualize. I would focus on building a therapeutic alliance through the tenets - genuineness, unconditional positive regard, empathy – from which will serve to create an environment of safety, growth and discovery of the person s/he is to become. Through my NT approach, I would elicit the stories or narratives s/he uses to inform and organize their sense of reality and explore how those stories describe and shape their perspectives on their past, present, and future. I would take into consideration how culture influences their stories. I would pay keen attention to detail being left out (the omissions) of their problem-saturated stories. Sessions would focus on re-authoring their singular story to establish (or, at least, consider) alternatives and options to their stories.

I am a registered therapist and licensed mental health counselor in the state of Washington with 6 years experience, as this is my second career and life purpose. My experience comes from providing direct mental health therapy and behavioral counseling for youth and caregivers, teens and adults with a variety of presenting issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, gender identity, learning disabilities and relationship challenges. My experience is varied across different settings, as I have provided individual and group therapy in community mental health agencies and day treatment facilities, including experience in intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs. I believe that we are all products of our closest relationships, our environment, our family systems, and every moment that leads to the present us. I strive to treat the therapeutic relationship, and you, with compassion, respect and warmth.

I am licensed in Washington with 20 + years of professional work experience. I assist those who have become aware that the story they are currently living is no longer serving them well. Together we will create a therapeutic environment that cultivates this initial awareness. Through the application of evidence based therapies, compassionate boundaries and a mind/body integrative approach, we work to resolve the past dysfunctional or traumatic parts of your story. Applying a mindfulness approach and cognitive based therapies such as CBT, motivational interviewing, movement, somatic therapies and family systems, we may bring an increased awareness and balance to our mind/body. Aligning ourselves with our spiritual center, we may create a new intentional, energetic story that allows healing and cultivates the possibility and choice for wellbeing. I further offer nature therapy and grounding/yogic guidance. I will aid you in identifying symptoms of discomfort and disconnection, common in overstressed, underachieved lifestyles that may invoke self injury, self denial or self harm. Together we will develop a compassionate wellness plan that allows you to safely transition from this undesirable, self-concealing storyline, to one of presence and possibility. My path as a therapist has paralleled my healing journey from a temporary paralysis associated with Guillain-Barre’ syndrome and continues with my practice as an LMHC in WA , and my creative work as a musician. I practice with the belief that you can resolve your dysfunctional story and with (y)our applied awareness/creativity, you may author a new, intentional story of health and happiness.
