***Email for Scheduling ADHD Evaluations. Wednesdays and Thursdays at 11:00 AM***
I believe that you know your own life better than anyone and that therapy is a space to collaborate, clarify, reflect, and look forward to creating a personal story that is more balanced and fulfilling.
I work with individuals aged 4 to midlife who are experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and those who are neurodivergent. For children aged 12 and under I offer individual counseling with parental consultation as needed.
My approach is utilizes tenets from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, trauma-informed therapy, accelerated resolution therapy, therapeutic art and therapeutic play to facilitate our work together. I received my BA in psychology from Seattle Pacific University in 2013 and Masters from Grand Canyon University in 2019.
I am also certified as an ADHD Clinical Services Provider, which means I have specific training in assessing, diagnosing and treating those who have ADHD. The evaluation process includes 3 tailored evaluation sessions involving a clinical interview and the completion of assessments outside of session. This service is currently available out-of-pocket.
Outside of therapy I am often found curled up with a good book or movie, playing in my garden, swimming or picking up a new hobby in the craft aisle.
