Counseling Services

Individual Psychotherapy

empty bench in front of the ocean

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I offer counseling and therapy services to adult individuals and teens over the age of 16 in the state of Washington. My training includes a wide range of methods and orientations including Gottman therapy methods, Dialectical-Behavioral, Cognitive-Behavioral, Mindfulness, family systems, and experiential and existential approaches. Sessions are geared towards gaining awareness, building on strengths, and deepening connections with oneself and others. I pull from each of these different perspectives to treat each couple, individual, and therapeutic relationship as unique and to empower my clients to create the change they desire for themselves. ​

Over the years, I have gained experience working with a wide range of individuals with diverse cultural and racial backgrounds, as well as varying gender identities and sexual preferences. I welcome individuals from the BIPOC and LGBTQA+ communities.

I have a hybrid practice of both in-person and online services. My physical offices are located in Bellingham and Lynden, Washington.

Couples and Relationship Counseling

I am a relational psychotherapist who specializes in working with couples. I work to facilitate awareness and provide support that is specific to the unique needs of each individual or relationship. I use an eclectic approach that draws from many different schools of thought, but I am primarily a process-based therapist.  This means that I am primarily interested in the process by which my clients interpret, communicate, and make meaning out of their experiences. When working with couples, I draw heavily from emotion-focused therapy to facilitate emotional attunement, physiological regulation, and connection in intimate realtionships.

I have a special interest in helping my clients have fulfilling relationships, as I believe that well-functioning relationships reduce the negative effects of stress and hardship.  I work to facilitate my client’s self-knowledge both individually and in relationships; knowing oneself is imperative to making satisfying choices and building meaningful connections with others.  I have dedicated my post-graduate training towards specializing in working with couples and individuals struggling in relationships.

I enjoy working with individuals who are seeking to broaden their understanding of themselves and deepen their personal sense of intentionality and connection with themselves and others. I work with relationships of all configurations, including the LGBTQ community and non-monogamous styles.

I have a hybrid practice of both in-person and online services. My physical offices are located in Bellingham and Lynden, Washington.
