Therapist Overview
My approach to therapy is influenced heavily by my education and my experience and I focus on meeting the client where they are at, helping them to understand and use supports that they have around them and using both short and long terms goals. Making a decision to see a counselor and to come in for sessions can be a very difficult decision for clients, so I always want to make sure that they feel that they are in a safe space in order to build up a rapport with me as their therapist. I understand and know how important it is to know a little about myself when you are choosing a counselor. I have lived most of my life in the Pacific Northwest, most living in Washington and Idaho, but I consider my hometown to be Moscow, Idaho. I enjoy reading, watching movies and dramas, listening to various types of music, taking walks with my dog. I also enjoy taking trips with my husband to explore ghost towns as we have created a list of places we would like to visit. I am a calm and contemplative person both in my personal and work life and am a good listener. I hope that by knowing a little about me helps you in making your decision when choosing a counselor.
