Let's stop the anxiety spiral together! I I work with adolescents and adults. Drop your mask in here and learn to stop apologizing for who you truly are. Feel more comfortables in situations and stop spiraling using practical tools. It's time to stop feeling ashamed how how you think things should be! Anxiety, Trauma, ADHD and creative burnout can be overwhelming. Perhaps your brain won't turn off at night, decision-making feels impossible, or even basic tasks drain your energy. Especially when they show up in every part of life; work, your relationships, kids or parenting. That's okay. We can work with your brain and body.

My style of therapy works best with those who are seeking healing that goes beyond just the symptoms. I want my clients to move toward a fuller life, that does not stop at just managing symptoms and moving on. Therapy can be scary and sometimes difficult, but there is hope! Therapy can also bring fullness and connection into your life. The therapeutic relationship is essential, and it is of primary concern in my work. I dedicate myself to assuring my clients feel safe to do the hard work to heal. If you are unhappy and seeking more from life, I believe I can help.

I specialize in religious trauma and grief, but can also work with a myriad of issues. I offer a safe place to bring your story and the interpersonal and professional skill to help you move through your pain. I focus much of my therapy on meaning-creation, values, and body-centered interventions.

I have spent much of my own time and finances to my own therapeutic work and believe strongly in the process. Our relationship is central and I understand how difficult it can be to open up to pain in the presence of another. You will find me to be empathetic, understanding, and open. Contact me and start your journey of healing and hope.

My interest in mental health began during my military service as a Survival Instructor in the United States Airforce. During this time, I had the privilege of teaching students from all walks of life the skills to survive in any environment. I became fascinated with human behavior, stress management/responses and the profound capabilities of the mind, body and spirit when faced with adversity. While navigating through the wilderness, a waypoint is defined as "a stop along ones journey." It is a safe place where the traveler can take shelter, rest, gain insight on where they've been, accept and honor where they are, and determine their way forward. It's a place for healing. This is what I strive to provide for my clients. I completed my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling through Northwestern University. I have experience counseling couples, teens, adult individuals, and groups. As an Airforce veteran, I have a passion for serving military members and their families. Other interests include working with blended families, and LGBTQ+ individuals and their parents

Therapist

I have been practicing as a therapist for 3 years, with over 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with both teens and adults facing issues with addiction, neurodivergence, trauma, anxiety, and depression. I strive to create a safe and judgement free zone where you can feel safe to bring your struggles. I am proud to be an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community and welcome my clients to fully be themselves, no matter how you look, who you love, or what you feel.

Outside of the therapy space, I love to spend time outdoors whenever it's nice out. On a rainy day I'm happy to spend the day reading, crocheting, or playing a good video game. My dog can usually be found nearby, either hiking or swimming outside or taking a nap on her bed.

Since therapy is about you, I will offer a little about myself. I was born and raised in rural Appalachia. My dad was a steel worker and a solid human being. He was the coach of my little league baseball team and taught me everything about nature. My mom however, was the one who inspired me to become a therapist. She never went to school for psychology, but she was one of the most naturally astute observers of human behavior I have ever known. She had an innate ability to truly see people, and they were drawn to her because of it. Her greatest gift was her discernment: she knew exactly when someone needed a silent, supportive ear and when they needed a practical problem solver. She always gave people precisely what they were seeking, and watching her transform lives just by listening is what made me want to do the same.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Walla Walla, WA


I've been a Mental Health Therapist in private practice since 2012. I received my Master's degree in Seattle, WA and have been practicing in Walla Walla, WA since 2022. I love working with many different ages and demographics and like to keep an open mind and stance as we get to know one another.

Being a therapist is rewarding to me on many levels. I believe it's both my responsibility and privilege to join people where they are, whether they're struggling through a difficult life event, moving through a life transition, or grappling with their meaning and purpose. The relationship of trust we develop is one of the most important foundations to successful therapy. And it will be a primary value during our work together. People often describe me as warm and compassionate, with a grounding presence and gentle approach to the work. Alongside a little humor and challenging nudges towards growth.
