​I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 14 years of counseling experience in schools helping students and parents with concerns related to anxiety, depression, grief, conflict resolution, bullying, and trauma.  In my school counseling role I also mentored other counselors, taught parent education seminars, provided professional development to other educators, and presented at the WA School Counselor Association conference.

​

In addition to counseling, I also have training and experience as a Positive Behavioral and Social Emotional Support Coach.  In this role, I worked primarily with teachers and parents to implement evidenced-based practices to support students both at school and at home.  

 

Prior to working in schools, I gained experience counseling in a college counseling center as well as a free community counseling clinic. 

 

This combination of professional experiences has provided me with a unique set of skills, strategies, and tools to help my clients on their therapeutic journey.  I'm grateful to be doing what I love: connecting with clients in an authentic way, deeply listening to their story, and walking alongside them as they develop the skills and insights to yield more joy, peace, and wholeness in their lives and relationships.
