Even darkness must pass.
A new day will come.
And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.

About

About Me

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington state, primarily working with individuals looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, LGBTQ+ concerns, trauma processing, and life transitions.


My main goal is for you to feel genuinely accepted and supported as you work on goals that we create together. This client-centric approach allows me to ensure our sessions are tailored to your individual needs, as you work towards achieving the changes that you want to see in your life.

​

I will work collaboratively with you, helping you use your personal strengths, develop new coping skills, and prioritize your self-care. To do this, I use a variety of humanistic approaches. These methods focus on positivity and open-mindedness, and put you at the center of your treatments, allowing your specific needs and goals to guide sessions.

​

I offer a safe, validating, and non-judgmental space for you to process, discover, and challenge yourself. I encourage you to take our time together for yourself, and I promise to support you in improving your mental health and work towards your life goals. Please reach out by clicking on contact tab.
