I am a Pre-Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate providing therapy to children, families, and adults under the supervision of Amy Beek (LW60800048).

I have a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. During my undergraduate I worked under Dr. King at Western Washington University in the multicultural psychology research. I spent five years working with children and families in our community, providing behavioral rehabilitation services. During my clinical practicum I had the joy of providing equine therapy to youth and adults. My clinical therapeutic approach is person-centered, adlerian, and humanistic.

I work with a range of issues including trauma, ADHD, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and major life transitions. I have enjoyed working in a variety of settings, including home based behavioral support for families and nature therapy. I meet every client with the same compassion and go into our therapeutic relationship with the same four goals:

1. Being your ally: I aim to understand how you see the world, so my support can be based on your worldview, culture, and personal values, and intersectional identity. We explore the systems that impact your life.

2. Providing Unconditional Positive Regard: You deserve to be treated as a human capable of great emotions. Every part of you is worthy of space.

3. Helping you take action: Together, we will take action by practicing skills, strategies, self-advocacy. We would do so with careful intention and consideration of your nervous system and capacity.

4. Empowering your autonomy: We follow your goals and respect the pace you are comfortable with in session. I will advocate for your freedom and agency.
