Training Description:
I have been in practice since 2004 and am a licensed mental health counselor. I have been treating PTSD and anxiety for 22 years and spent 15 of those years working at a sexual assault clinic using PE, CPT and TF-CBT for trauma. I have been specializing in OCD for the past 4-5 years. I am a licensed supervisor in the state of Washington and have been providing clinical supervision for 10 years. I specialize in working with high risk populations including folks who are struggling with housing insecurity, who are victims of crimes and who identify as as LGBTQIA+.
Diversity Statement:

I strive to provide an all-inclusive practice to all races, nationalities, genders, ethnicities, sexual identities, and spiritual/religious identities. I have received ongoing cultural competency and anti-racism trainings. Most significantly, I participated in an intensive training and consultation with Melia LaCour of Becoming Justice focused on anti-racism and cultural humility work. I assisted in implementing an anti-racism and equity initiative within the clinic I worked at. I also have extensive training in working with LGBTQIA+ folks.
