Licensed Mental Health Counselor

I am a provider at our Edmonds clinic who provides therapy services!

My idea client is seeking therapy to address the emotional and interpersonal challenges stemming from past trauma. They struggle with regulating emotions, setting healthy boundaries, forming meaningful connections, effective communication, and developing a positive self-image. These difficulties are often rooted in complex experiences within their family, cultural, and economic environments.

My client’s goal is to deepen their self-awareness and foster healthier relationships. They seek to cultivate authentic connections with both their inner selves and those around them, aiming to build stronger bonds within their family and community.

I will begin therapy by establishing rapport and actively listening to the client’s life story. I will identify patterns of behavior that may be contributing to their current concerns. Using a trauma informed approach. I will incorporate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered therapy to help the client understand the connection between their physical and emotional responses.

I enjoy building rapport with clients and learning about their unique experiences. Creating a safe and comfortable therapeutic space is essential to me. I encourage open communication, inviting clients to share their thoughts and feelings through out the therapy process. Together, we can explore their journey and they can discover their new self that awaits on the other side.
