Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Hi there. I’m Elizabeth, a dual credentialed provider who works with people of all ages at our Federal Way clinic.
My approach is one rooted in decolonized, trauma and healing informed therapy, partnered with curiosity and compassion. I have a broad background working in residential treatment programs, clinic settings, and community settings. I draw from many therapeutic orientations, but believe the client is the expert in their story and experiences. It’s a privilege to get to partner with and support people in their choices and transitions that occur throughout our lifespans.
My hope is that clients feel safe, supported, and seen with me. I think of therapy as a healing place where people can come, let out their fears and worries, explore dreams and wonderings, and heal from traumas. I incorporate art and somatic therapy, along with nervous system work, talk and nature informed therapy. Therapy is personalized, not 1 size fits all
I would be honored to work with you. I come with compassion, unconditional positive regard, and curiosity towards every person. I know therapy can be intimidating and scary to start; I take the client lead, going slowly and at their comfort level. Trust is earned and I don’t rush the therapeutic process. I am honored that people trust me with their stories.
