Being heard is an integral part of the human experience. We all report feeling most satisfied, fulfilled, and connected when we have a sense of ownership over our own emotional well-being. For individuals as well as those in relationships, the path to self-esteem can be complicated. Professional therapy has helped millions of people improve their sense of self-worth, become better communicators, and resolve persistent relationship problems, among other benefits.
As a licensed therapist in Washington, I work with a wide range of clients to help them develop the tools they need to succeed in their own lives. What's stopping you from becoming exactly the person you were meant to be? Do you sometimes feel as if you're standing in your own way? When your ability to handle the inevitable stresses of life becomes depleted, every day can feel like a battle.
When willpower isn't enough, it's time you turned to a licensed professional therapist. No two individuals experience exactly the same struggles.

Techniques
Report
There are many types of therapeutic counseling techniques available.
Each has its appropriate use.
Some newer counseling techniques, particularly Lifespan Integration (LI) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), have been demonstrated to help clients deal quickly with a single episode trauma.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is especially effective for treating marital and relationship distress.
Below are some examples of the techniques I utilize within my practice.
By having multiple techniques from which to draw, I guide clients as they learn and manage their emotional healing process.

Issues
Report
Life feels rewarding and fulfilling when we feel heard, respected and connected to those around us.
Most people seek a sense of inner peace and an ability to have compatible relationships with family, friends and colleagues.
Counseling is appropriate when we find that our ability to cope is stretched to the limit, when we feel our efforts are falling short or when we have difficulty communicating our desired intentions.
Each of us is as unique as the experiences we have had during our lifetime.
