“Helping Clients live Authentic Lives and Relationships”

Why this logo, You may ask?

Small, different, seemingly meaningless shaped pieces brought together to form a bird. We, too, are pieces put together to be whole. But sometimes our pieces don’t seem to fit, seem to be too shattered, the pieces are someone else’s, or maybe we gave some of the pieces away and we don’t know how, or even if, we can get them back, or some may be missing altogether.

I believe this is the work of therapy- the invitation to become whole, to accept and love ourselves fiercely and gently, to live as our authentic selves, and to offer that love to one another. Therapy can help us sort through the parts of our lives to find authenticity, meaning and healing by keeping, tossing, re-imagining, and recovering the pieces of our life story.

I invite you to continue your journey to wholeness with me. I offer my empathy, care, curiosity, playfulness, insight, and presence to you. I offer my knowledge, life experience and gifts given to me from others in my life to support you. My therapeutic orientation is influenced by Attachment Theory, Relational Psychodynamic Theory, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and neuroscience.

We can work together with the story of your life to find and see you in all your depth and complexity, strengths and limitations, beauty, and goodness.

In my work with couples, this process is similar. However, the complexity is even greater. And the capacity for hope and goodness is even greater yet. We collaboratively work to help build a safe connection for the partnership where ultimately each person can feel seen, heard, and enjoyed.

Why a bird, you may ask?

To me, birds symbolize “voice” (it is the first way we often know a bird is there); “freedom” (birds shift and adjust to whatever context it finds itself in- sheer movement); and “community” (we usually see birds in flocks). These are some of the things I wish for all of humanity- a voice, freedom/movement, and community.

I work with individuals 18 years or older and couples residing in Washington state.

Categories of concerns in my scope of practice include: anxiety, depression, PTSD, interpersonal issues (romantic, friendship, family), parenting issues, bonding difficulties, trauma, sense of self, family systems, life transitions, work and career issues, etc.

Sessions are telehealth or in person at my office in downtown Wenatchee.

Sessions are 50-55 minutes. Intakes are 90 minutes.

I believe that consistent weekly sessions are most effective and recommended but not required.

Insurance:

I am in network with the following insurances: Premera, Regence, Asuris, Blue Cross Blue Shield, First Choice Health, Pacific Source, Kaiser of WA (PPO only), United Healthcare, UMR, GEHA, Aetna, Meritain.

Pre-martial therapy for engaged couples: 12 sessions for $1000 prior to wedding.

Sliding scale fees may be available upon request and for a limited time frame.

Rescheduling fees: missed sessions must be requested a minimum of 24 hours prior to session to avoid fee. Fee for rescheduling is $100 if less than 24 hours notice is given. Fee will be automatically deducted from credit/debit card on file.

*If I need to reschedule, I will give as much notice as possible. I will offer another session as soon as possible to cover the missed session.

Additional details:
All required forms must be completed prior to the first session. Forms can be completed during the first session if help is needed.

If the required forms are not completed at the start of the session, the session will need to be rescheduled. Rescheduling fee may be charged.

I offer a free 20-30 minute phone consult to assess whether or not a working relationship will help you meet your goals and that the scope of work is within my scope of practice. If not, I will offer referrals for other therapists I respect or other resources that may suit better.

The client has the right to discontinue therapy services at any time and for any reason.

During each calendar year, I will take two longer breaks to be with my family (approximately 4-6 weeks at a time) tentatively during winter (Dec/Jan) and summer (July/August).

Additional information is provided in my consent/general information forms and in sessions as requested.
