Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate
I offer therapy services at our Renton, WA clinic. I am a compassionate, client-centered therapist who values diversity, authenticity, and cultural humility in every aspect of my work. I believe healing begins when individuals feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted for who they are. My approach is grounded in deep respect for each person’s lived experience, and I strive to create a space where clients of all identities, backgrounds, and belief systems feel safe to show up fully as themselves.
I draw from evidence-based approaches including Person-Centered Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). With children and adolescents, I incorporate developmentally appropriate, engaging interventions to support emotional expression and understanding. With adults, I focus on fostering insight, supporting meaningful behavioral change, and building resilience. Across all of my work, I center empathy, cultural humility, unconditional positive regard, and respect.
I view therapy as a collaborative partnership built on trust, compassion, and authenticity. Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I deeply respect the courage it takes to begin this process. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to be honest, explore openly, and grow at your own pace—free from judgment or pressure.
