I am licensed behavioral health therapist with 21 years experience. I live in a small town in Washington state.

I believe that each of us deserves opportunities to seek health and happiness for our heads and hearts. LIfe presents us with a fast-paced tempo and multitudes of needs that vie for our energies. This can drain us—physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. The goal of my counseling practice is to help each individual establish a path that is more fulfilling. I believe the keys to growth lie within each individual and one of the best ways to uncover them is to take a look at the ways we perceive the world around us and to test our automatic assumptions, and challenge our behavior patterns. My hope is that through the relationships I develop with clients they will see the hope that is in each of them and live more fully and completely. Our problems can be difficult to overcome. Together, we can prove that these challenges are not always insurmountable and that, indeed, life can simply feel better.
