Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Issaquah, WA
Supervised by Rachel Wright, MSW, LICSW, VSW-CP (Veterinary Social Work)

About My Clients

I specialize in grief, trauma, women's issues, caregiver fatigue, and mental health in veterinary medicine. I understand the interconnectedness between humans, animals, nature, and the therapeutic value of these relationships. I will honor your connection with the human-animal bond and how that impacts and enriches your mental health, therapeutic process, and healing. I provide approved supervision for pre-licensure therapists.

My Background and Approach

Your strengths and challenges are unique to you; therefore, your therapy should be tailored and specialized to meet your specific needs and concerns. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, strengths-based, compassion-focused, collaborative, and empowering. I fully believe in the importance of integrating different yet complimentary approaches that are most appropriate for each client, and are extensively trained and experienced in a variety of therapeutic modalities and evidence-based treatments. I draw deeply from psychodynamic and attachment-based theories systems lens, trauma-informed, somatic, and narrative therapies, experiential (animal and nature based therapies), mindfulness-based, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), meaning-making reconstruction work, and post-traumatic growth. I embrace honoring each client and their unique stories, lived experiences, and specific needs. I am here to companion you on your journey.
