Therapists in Sprague, WA

Hi! I'm a licensed mental health counselor in Washington State and a licensed clinical professional counseling in Nevada. I've been a therapist since 2010. We find ourselves out of balance for a variety of reasons. My goal is to help my clients restore balance in their life through a variety of practical coping skills. Clients who come to see me typically are experiencing struggles with depression, anxiety, trauma related symptoms, or symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder. The work that I do with clients is an active process for clients who are ready for change. Our thoughts are powerful and change the way we view ourselves and the world around us. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These strategies create healthier thoughts and achieve acceptance of emotional experiences to achieve balance in life. I use a realistic, empathetic, and non-judgmental approach. I enjoy creating a positive therapeutic relationship with my clients through my personable character, humor, and genuine desire to help make a change in your life

I am a knowledgeable therapist - Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor and a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, who takes a non-judgmental, open-minded, practical approach, with an understanding that we are all different. Utilizing this approach, along with evidenced-based practices, I educate, encourage and empower clients to increase growth and healing. I have first-hand experience with the military culture. I am a veteran and I was a military spouse. I understand the challenges that the military can bring - from military trauma, separation due to deployment, to combat-related stress. I am currently independently licensed in Washington state and Kentucky, specializing in addictions, primarily substance use. I am experienced working with individuals who struggle with mental health disorders - depression, anxiety, trauma and issues coping with daily life stresses. I am no stranger to teens and young adults as I have worked in a youth group home setting. I look forward to working with you towards wellness and wholeness!!!

I get that sometimes life just sucks and when it happens we can feel alone, misunderstood, and stuck. It's easy to feel embarrassed by the circumstances we find ourselves in which make it even more difficult to reach out and ask for help. Kudos to you for starting out on this journey! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience in providing both inpatient and outpatient mental health services. I enjoy helping people overcome personal challenges and to improve their quality of life. I believe people are the expert of their own lives and the role of a counselor is to help them use this expertise to overcome challenges and reach their goals. I frequently use humor and laughter in my sessions and I encourage my clients to seek out opportunities to laugh. I want people to be active in the counseling process as I believe counseling is not a spectator sport. Additionally, I enjoy working with people of diverse backgrounds, cultures, and spiritual/religious preferences. People generally tell me it doesn’t feel like therapy and meeting with me isn't as bad as they thought it would be. Primary Issues treated include: Anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I look forward to begin working with you!

I am licensed in Washington with 10 years of professional counseling experience and hundreds of proud and happier clients. I work with clients ranging in ages from young teens with weak self-understanding and self-esteem to clients in their senior years, dealing with devastating losses, deaths, grief, and disturbing changes. I have observed that anxiety is one of the greatest reasons my clients give for seeking help. Sleep difficulties and resultant depressive symptoms so often run hand-in-hand with anxiety and high levels of stress. In therapy, we work from the inside out as we explore what we know, what we can change, how we can grow and how we can better respect and give to ourselves and to others in our lives. Relationship or communication issues are often reasons given by couples or domestic partners when they are experiencing a breakdown in their coupleship. These relationships too often combine ineffective coping patterns that were actually learned early in each individual person's childhood homes. I work with my clients to create a trusting and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear or judgment. Another area is working through trauma , whether it be a one-time natural disaster or complex trauma that can so often follow family addiction, neglect, emotional abuse, mental illness or death of a sibling or parent...all traumas that drain us of personal confidence and positive self-esteem. Without those, we often have difficulty creating helpful ways of making wise decisions or even trouble being able to judge who is good for us or who might be toxic or dangerous in our life. Doing important "deep dives" to change maladaptive issues can truly help us change negative patterns, learn more effective coping strategies, change thinking patterns, and being willing to respect and value the differences in a friend or partner, resulting in greater respect for themselves and our partners. Teens far too often today are dealing with bullying, social media that begs comparison with others who look "perfect" but gradually damages a young person's self-esteem and personal confidence which is at the core of becoming and being our best selves. Finally, I enjoy working with those trying to recover from addiction and working with their families so they can take better care of themselves and their families in the face of addiction. I can help teach much about learning to feel less afraid, less trapped by their loved one's addiction. There are certain ways we can begin to live our lives emotionally more removed from the addiction that plagues our family. We can then work gently toward a healthier individual understanding and family wholeness. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy does take courage but the results of living a better, more enjoyable life is so worth the work and the effort to change. We can grow, ask the right questions, and gain pride in ourselves as we see change day by day and week by week. Hurray for getting started!!!
