I believe each of us has an innate capacity to grow, change, adapt and heal. But that doesn’t mean you have to know how to do it on your own! I work with people experiencing grief and loss, the impacts of a cancer diagnosis and challenges of survivorship (whether treatment is over or ongoing) caregivers, the impacts of structural oppression, traumatic stress, anxiety and depression. My approach is compassionate and collaborative and my work is focused on partnering with clients to build internal and external support for the dynamic and ongoing process of recovery, integration, and coping with loss and change.
In our work we may explore feelings of disconnection, fears, negative thoughts or beliefs, unhelpful patterns. I will listen carefully, ask questions, offer reflections and teach skills. I will support you in working to shift patterns so that you can feel more in alignment. I use humor and imagery, and have a deep respect for each person's unique life path.
I provide telehealth across Washington State, and in-person in Olympia. When you reach out we can schedule a 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit!
