About Me
Starting Therapy can be hard. It takes courage to start to work on what you know you need too, and even more to ask someone for help. I have a deep a reverence for the bravery needed to reach out. I hope my clients find me to be compassionate, empathetic, accepting and a truly genuine, caring person. I believe it is an honor to walk with someone on their journey, to help them shine their light into their darkest places, and to work on the fear and sadness that surface as a result. Through working at Lakewood Child and Family Counseling in Tacoma WA, I have recently taken a number of EFT (emotional focused therapy) and EFFT (emotional focused family therapy) to help facilitate my clients exploring their traumas. I work with clients who are working through their anxiety and depression, helping them confront the the traumas of their past. I work with a lot of clients who are going through major life transitions, such as the loss of a loved one, change in a long term relationship, or a change in a career. Please reach out to me if you are interested in starting with me.
