In life, you sometimes need to take a risk. No matter who you are, you can sometimes feel like you’re leaping across a canyon, with uncertainty that you're going to make it to the other side. Depression, or  a lack of motivation, can make it so that you don't even attempt the risk. 

A counselor based in Twin Falls can help minimize risk and teach you how you can cross safely. Not everyone is a daredevil like Evel Knievel, who attempted to jump across the Twin Falls canyon. A counselor can make it so that you have the safest landing possible.

Hello! I am a Clinical Social Worker based in Spokane and am licensed in Washington and Idaho. I have been working in the counseling field for 11 years. I received my master’s degree in social work from Eastern Washington University and my bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University-Hawaii. I am originally from Hawaii and moved to Spokane for graduate school. My approach to therapy is client-centered. I enjoy helping people take steps towards living their values and achieving their goals. I have worked with clients in several areas. I am most experienced in providing career counseling. Career counseling includes work/life balance, career/vocational exploration, career transitions, workplace concerns (getting along with coworkers, bosses, etc.), and other workplace-related stress/anxiety. I draw from multiple treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I look forward to working with you!

So much in life tears us down and tells us 'we're doing it wrong.' We get in the way of ourselves, undermining our own best efforts. Let's face it; we can be our best enemies sometimes. We're each in the middle of our own lives and heaven knows we could all use someone looking in from time to time to help us see what we're missing. We're not meant to go it alone. You and I both know it just doesn't work that way. It takes each of us get through this life together. Those clients who walk through my door aren't broken, and so don't need fixing. All that's usually happened is they've miss-placed their keys. So we go looking for them, finding those doors they've closed, don't remember locking, or maybe are too afraid to open. I would love to help you see the good you already do. Let's see if I can assist in resolving any concerns you might now have. By meeting, talking and getting things figured out, I know we can do anything. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over thirty-five years of experience assisting adults and couples with challenges such as stress, depression, anxiety, self-worth, abuse/trauma, chronic and acute health concerns, grief, loss, end of life issues, and finding connections to spirituality apart from traditional organized religion. I was also a licensed practical nurse years ago and have completed a year of health coaching training. I am passionate about the food/mood connection and its bridge between physical and mental health. I have also taken some graduate level courses in complementary and alternative medicine because I also have a special interest in holistic health and healing. I have a very eclectic approach that draws from multiple modalities. I have a background in traditional psychotherapy, but prefer to come from a "whole person" strength-based approach rather than the traditional "illness-based" approach. I like to use the other senses in addition to "the mind" and might make use of music, art, movement, or even aromatherapy approaches. My approach seeks to offer genuine acceptance of who you are right now, helping you discover who you would like to be, and finding ways with you to make progress toward your goals. Edison said, "I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that do not work." I would appreciate an opportunity to look with you to finding ways that DO work for you. Thank you for looking at my information. If you think we might work well together, please get in touch. If you don't feel a connection to me, there are many other very qualified persons on this site. Don't give up! Keep looking till you find someone that you think you would work well with! Someone is out there in the other profiles that would be a good match for you! I wish you the best, and applaud your courage in being willing to take a look at other options for your life if you are feeling troubled.
