Licensed Mental Heath Counselor Associate

I offer therapy services at our Federal Way clinic.

I’m a transgender male clinician with 10+ years of experience supporting children, families, and adults through trauma, anxiety, depression, severe mental illness, and life transitions. With a background in both clinical and pastoral care, I bring a compassionate, person-centered approach grounded in evidence-based practices. I’ve worked in community mental health, crisis settings, and helping individuals navigate suicidal ideation and complex relational challenges. I focus on creating a space where you feel seen, respected, and understood, while supporting you in building stability, clarity, and meaningful growth.

I support individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, suicidal ideation, and challenges related to identity, relationships, and life transitions. I have experience working with SMI persistent mental illness, crisis intervention, and SI. My goal is not only symptom relief, but helping you develop tools for long-term, meaningful change.

I offer an affirming, nonjudgmental space where you can be fully yourself. We’ll move at your pace and build safety, insight, and lasting change together. Together, we will focus on building practical coping skills, emotional regulation, and effective communication so you can manage stress with greater confidence and stability.
