Social Work Associate Independent Clinical

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

My ideal client is someone who is looking to become more self-empowered and is ready to start their healing journey. I enjoy working with clients who are looking for support in learning about and managing their metal and emotional health and developing healthy and helpful coping skills, and are ready to take a brave stand in becoming their own advocate.

I incorporate elements from multiple therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I prefer a strengths-based, client-centered approach to therapy, so that my clients feel empowered and are able to take ownership of their healing journey.

I believe that every person’s lived experiences are unique and an integral part of not only who we are as individuals, but form the core of how we navigate our communities and the world around us. Feeling connected to ourselves and our communities is key to positive mental health and well being.
