This path for me began initially working directly with groups of middle and high school students in after-school programs. I was part of creating a safe space for students to explore identity, lifestyle, and leadership. Eventually, my work in schools started to focus more specifically on youth at risk both in terms of underperforming in academics as well as emotional and behavioral risks. Beginning to bring the family together for therapy also became a part of my style of counseling. The natural progression as I worked with youth in crisis and risk was to join the adolescent in-patient team at Seattle Children’s Hospital. Here my skills were truly put in a crucible and tested. Adolescents and their families were experiencing some of the most difficult emotional turbulence in their lives and needed a counselor they could trust to guide them out of the crisis, build the skills needed to feel safe and hopeful again.
Being at Bellevue Family Counseling has allowed me to bring together all the pieces of my therapeutic background – helping teens and young adults build the skills and resilience they need to get through challenges as well as mentoring them to explore healthy patterns of thinking and routines so they can feel confident in their own skin. I also specialize in OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), for teens and adults.
I look forward to being a supportive connection for you and helping you grow into your best self.
