Everyone needs a non-judgmental ear to listen to the struggles that we go through in life.

As a therapist, I strive to establish a safe, empathetic connection with my clients and to foster a space of nonjudgmental curiosity with a splash of playfulness. We will start wherever you are and explore your goals for yourself, your relevant experiences and the ways I can best support your journey. I do my best work with clients who are motivated to see change in their life and desire to connect more deeply with a place of wholeness and peace within themselves. Additionally, I strive to be aware of the dynamics happening between myself and my clients to ensure that I am creating a space which is experienced as trustworthy, non-judgmental, helpful, caring and non-hierarchica

Psychotherapy is a big investment in yourself—and it has to pay off and reach beyond the hour you spend in the therapy room. Your unique needs and wants will shape our approach, rather than a one-fits-all method. This is your time to identify what you want for yourself, unburden, get support, gain new perspectives, tools, and skills. My approach is caring, curious, and active, with occasional humor sprinkled in. I want you to find the solutions that will work for you and the skills and insights to implement them.

If you have deep seated issues that are plaguing your personal and professional life, you may be ready to do deeper psycho-therapeutic work. Choosing a therapist will be very important as the fit of you and your therapist is a critical factor in the success of your psychotherapy. Calling a therapist takes courage. I will work with you in a respectful and compassionate manner, going at your pace. Call me at 425 652-1413 to see if we are a fit.

My approach to psychotherapy is rooted in a relational approach that engages not only your behavior but the ability to explore the meaning behind the behavior. You will be able to explore your story in an environment in which you will feel cared for and encouraged. Change takes place in our work together as we explore your current difficulties in such a way that will result in a different future. What clients have found is a sense of seeing and living differently in the world. My hope would be the same would be true for you.

I employ a holistic approach that bridges the worlds of shamanic healing, contemporary psychotherapy, and life coaching. The blending of these modalities recognizes and works with the invisible energies, the non-ordinary realities (however we each individually perceive these forces), and the physical world experiences and choices influencing our wellbeing. I bring to this work deep integrity, compassion, fortitude, intuition, and over 3 decades of shamanic practice in support of mine and others' journeys of healing, personal mastery, and authenticity.

Psychotherapy is relational. It's about feeling safe with your therapist where you can express your innermost thoughts and feelings. I provide a nurturing and structured space where you can get to the root of your issues in as short of time as possible. While I believe in the benefits of long-term therapy, I also know many of you want solutions. Consequently, my approach is solution-focused with cognitive behavioral techniques and even assignments for clients to help them reach their goals more quickly.

I believe that people get better when they are motivated for change, they learn the skills, and they practice the skills regularly. My part as a therapist is to help you feel really understood and to give you tools,, to give you hope and to cheer you on. The longer I work with people (20+ years), the quicker I am to help you find the solution and help you move to a better place. I like to see changes with each session and some major change in 4 weeks. Most of the time, I want you to leave happier and better than you walked in. Focusing on what works in your life will crowd out the problems. Example: focusing on more safety and peace will displace fear, anxiety and panic.

My approach to Psychotherapy is client-centered, collaborative, and individual to each client and the issues they are struggling to overcome. I use an attachment based, depth psychology focus with clients, including children and couples. Some of my clients may choose to use Sand Tray Therapy, which is a non-verbal form of expressive therapy. Sand Tray therapy can help to access and heal the deeper, non-conscious aspects of current life struggles.

Therapy is honest, cathartic, truth-telling, relational work. It's facing your story. It's feeling things long pushed away and ignored. It's being heard. It's hearing your own voice. It's coming into relationship with yourself. Psychotherapy is a lot of different things and ultimately it's about the relationship and rhythm you find with your psychotherapist. I would love to meet to see if it is a good fit.

Beyond "symptoms" Psychotherapy is about long term enrichment and a sense of connection to the community. My approach is hopeful, focused and accepting. I help my clients sort their feelings, clarify their goals, and find fulfilling, meaningful lives. Together, we discover the ways that an individual's unique outlook on life can be both a strength and hinderance. We discover this through close attention to the present and through a relevant, structured, exploration of the past. My technique draws heavily on the accumulated wisdom of 100 years of Adlerian Psychology.

I help individuals and couples get what they want out of life. Great lives are possible, but somehow we're not always taught how to get them while growing up. The reason for that is that everyone's "great life" is different from everyone else's and it's achieved differently from everyone else. Focusing on you and your life is a direct route to figuring out what has been bothering you and why. And moving forward, we figure out how to effectively make happen what you want to happen.

Psychotherapy is a process of deep exploration that seeks to create a greater understanding of the self. Once you understand something, you will learn skills to create more options so you can make the decision that will enhance your view of yourself, tour various roles in your life, and your relationships. Skills learned in psychotherapy can improve how you assess things (decrease shame, guilt, anxiety, for example), how you understand what others are doing (such as depersonalizing their behaviors, decreasing our reactivity to things they say or do), and improve your ability to communicate your wants and needs clearly and effectively.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods to help a person change behavior and overcome problems in a positive manner. Its aim is to help people understand the thoughts behind feeling anxious or depressed and addressing these thinking patterns. Psychotherapy will help you change behaviors and habits that are limiting you, to experiencing your fullest potential.

Individual therapy is a collaborative process between the therapist and the client. It is a unique relationship that offers support, perspective, and new skills that can help a person confront barriers that interfere with emotional and mental well-being. Patterns and habits that were once effective may no longer be working and could be preventing you from being where you want to be. Therapy can increase positive feelings, self-esteem, and provide a renewed sense of self that is strong and clear.

Understanding our past and its impact on our current life can be life changing. We carry our past with us. We carry our interpretation of our past and it repeats itself in our love relationships, friendships, family, and work success or failures. Being more in charge of the choices you make and the relationships you enter into will be the result of our sessions.

Therapy with me is largely about dialogue and connection. I ask my clients to make themselves vulnerable in the process and I am willing to do the same. I try to stay with what the client is bringing to the conversation and really understand where they are coming from in relation to their larger context. I am curious and well-rounded and can connect with clients on many levels and on many topics. I ask insightful questions, connect seemingly disparate dots to find patterns, pose theories and suggest treatment plans. It's only through understanding where you are that you can then decide where you would like to go.
