I am not a medical doctor, nurse practitioner, or prescriber. Medicines are ultimately always a decision between you and a prescriber. I have a master’s degree and thousands of hours of additional training in talk therapy. I am a talk therapist.
I am only licensed in Washington State. You need to be in Washington State to participate in counseling with me. With that being said, you can be anywhere in Washington State and work with me via telehealth. I have an office for in person services in Spokane.
Availability ebbs and flows depending on many factors. Oftentimes I have some openings within the next few weeks if you can make it work with your schedule. Typically my hours are Monday-Friday 8 AM to 5pm.
I am not a religious counselor. I try very hard not to bring my own personal religious thoughts which are mostly agnostic to sessions with clients. The same applies to politics. My opinion does not matter, and I try to remain neutral and allow you to explore your thoughts. Therapy is about you, and I try to remain openminded, non-judgmental, and neutral so we can explore you.
I feel many therapists inflate their experience when in actuality they have only been licensed a few years. I want to answer this as clearly as possible. I was a licensed mental health counselor associate from 2018 until 2020. I have been a fully licensed mental health counselor since 2020. Previously I was a licensed school counselor, an employment specialist, a teacher, a receptionist, a manager, and a federal case worker.
