I have been in private practice in Seattle for thirty years. i have extensive training in numerous therapeutic modalities including client-centered therapy, interpersonal/relational therapy, gestalt therapy, somatic oriented therapy, various approaches to the use of dreams in therapy (including Jungian). I also have extensive training in several different approaches to couples therapy. My practice consists of individuals, couples and groups.

Is your relationship struggling to recover after infidelity? Does your partner's sexual addiction have you considering divorce? Is sex a problem in your relationship? Betrayal is a deeply traumatic experience that causes a huge rupture that is difficult to heal on you own. You may be questioning your entire relationship and wonder if healing is even possible. We provide a safe space for you to intimately share, receive empathy, and develop a plan to rebuild trust through consistent actions and honesty. It is possible to heal and feel close again. Let us guide you through the recovery process towards a more meaningful relationship.

Clients want problems solved and expect that to occur soon. So I focus on the here and now and am active in making recommendations that bring about change as soon as possible. I use an outcome-focused approach and have over 40 years of professional experience as a counselor and trainer to bring you competent expertise. Treating individuals, couples and children with depression, anxiety, and traumas, are common complaints that respond well to my treatment.

Pacific Mental Health is dedicated to serving the mental health needs of the Greater Seattle area. If you're looking for a new counselor or a fresh perspective in life, our team of psychotherapist can help you achieve the goals you're looking for.

Our philosophy is based in healing. Many things can happen in one's life which can derail you from your true purpose and meaning. We see psychotherapy as a means to help you re-identify who you are, what your goals are, and how, by combining principles of your body, spirit, and mind, we can in a collaborative manner, find health for you as you define it. Though it is indeed trite to say, it is also true that life is a journey. I hope that with my 20 years of experience, I can help guide you to your true path.

We live in a complicated world where the demands of work, home, caregiving, as well as exposure to troubling events all take their toll. Many of us need a place to gain perspective, develop skills and discover a better way forward.

I am currently accepting new clients. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with many years of experience treating a wide range of presenting concerns within adults, families, and couples. Some of these presenting concerns include depression, anxiety, OCD, grief, relationship dilemmas, challenges with life transitions, identity development and exploration, and working through past traumas. My areas of specialty include eating disorders and couples work. I see therapy as a collaborative process. Together we will identify and establish your goals for treatment, and work to bring you to where you feel more positively.

With over 30 years of experience helping people with a wide variety of psychological problems, there's a very good chance I can help you, too. As a scientist-practitioner, my job is to bring the findings of psychological science to helping people with real-world problems. As such, it's important to keep a focus on what it is you're trying to change and then apply scientifically validated methods to help you reach your goals.

I help support: Couples & Individuals, First Time Parents, First Generation Migrants, LGBTQIA2S+, Multicultural/Multiracial Couples, Individuals & Families.

Are you feeling the weight of concern about either your own struggles with substance use or addictive behaviors or perhaps someone else's? The worry, confusion, and even shame can be overwhelming, leaving you tangled in excuses, strained relationships, and just trying to make it through each day. These feelings are all too common when dealing with challenges related to drugs, alcohol, gambling, technology, or other addictions. If you find yourself in this situation, know that you're not alone. Whether you're directly experiencing addiction or affected by a loved one's struggles, the impact can be profound.

As a therapist, I have worked with folks struggling with life transitions, mood disorders, complex trauma/PTSD, and family of origin issues. I have a passion for working with clients healing from intergenerational trauma and wanting to catch their body up with their mind; teaching the body that it is now safe in the present and no longer needs to live in survival mode.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or haunted by past experiences? I specialize in helping motivated adults who want to better understand how their past has impacted them. I help individuals find relief through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Now more than ever people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers, and lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. I believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better life.

I believe in the inherent ability of an individual to change and heal. Therapy can be a path for that healing journey. I always keep in mind your unique set of needs and comfort level so the therapeutic environment feels as safe as possible. The approach I use integrates the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of each of us, a holistic understanding that body and mind is not separated. My intention is to empower you to embrace new coping tools to foster success and discover greater life possibilities. I provide individual and group psychotherapy.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and that the client steers the direction. Internal motivation and a willingness to ask yourself the difficult questions are essential to success. The beauty is that the power lies in your hands at all times. I am happy to help facilitate the process and smooth the path along your way. I have training in cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (both the original and radically open subsets), holistic health, humanistic approaches, and existential approaches.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming. Perhaps you're tired of anxiety keeping you up at night or feel like depression is hindering you from living your life to your full potential. I enjoy working with adults who may feel trapped in a cycle of anxiety/depression or just feeling stuck in the monotony of every day life. Some issues I commonly work with clients on are: pregnancy/new parenting stress, career challenges, academic stress, alcohol use, relationship challenges, trauma.
