My Approach
My clients describe me as down to earth and relatable. I use an eclectic approach of therapy models to meet the needs of my clients, including CBT, family systems therapy, and trauma-informed attachment theory. When I work with children, I value parent participation. I understand that you are your child's #1 supporter, but that may need some assistance knowing how help. I also enjoy working with individuals and families who are adjusting to a pregnancy or a new addition to the family. I strive to help my clients understand what is normal, help make positive changes, and hold hope when you might feel hopeless.
My Background
I received my MS in Counseling Psychology from Alaska Pacific University in 2005. I have worked in a variety of settings, including schools, residential treatment, mobile crisis intervention, and outpatient mental health therapy. I participated in certification training from Postpartum Support International on maternal mental health and perinatal mood disorders. I have also completed certification in family therapy for foster and adoptive families, offered by PSU and DHS. I am contracted with OHP HealthShare as an exceptional needs provider. Please be aware that I may only be authorized to treat HealthShare members whose needs fall under my specialties, and at the discretion of OHP. Please contact me for a brief phone consult to determine if my expertise matches your needs.
