I am a Cognitive-Behavioral Therapist. I primarily work by changing people’s thoughts and behaviors, which in turn can affect their feelings. I specialize in empowering people to have healthy relationships with themselves, others, and with substances.

• Treating trauma and anxiety symptoms
• Building up people’s self-esteems/feelings of self worth
• Teaching healthy coping skills (see resources tab for some videos of the skills I teach)
• Stress and time management skills

• Psychoeducation about healthy versus unhealthy/abusive relationships
• Working only with survivors/victims of unhealthy/abusive relationships
• Communication and listening skills
• Conflict resolution/deescalation skills
• Safety planning for leaving an abusive relationship
• Building intimacy and trust with new relationships

• Psychoeducation/harm reduction psychotherapy regarding substances
• Identifying reasons why people use substances; coping mechanisms
• Integration work for people who have had difficult psychedelic experiences

As a licensed professional counselor, I am credentialed with multiple insurance panels: Aetna, Moda Health, Regence Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and PacificSource. I MAY be able to bill other insurance companies as an out-of-network provider, but that is entirely dependent on your benefit coverage. Please contact me if you have any questions about payment options.
