| Practice Description: |
Is stress affecting your physical health? Are you facing challenges of family caregiving, and feeling overwhelmed and "burned out"? Are you still governed by old beliefs, fears and habits, but not sure how to move beyond their grip? Interested in solving a problem, growing healthier, learning more from a "whole body" perspective? Want to see the "Big Picture" but also get real results? Want to focus on living and drawing upon what is right with you, rather than focusing on what is "wrong"?
I am a licensed mental health counselor, group facilitator and mindbody educator, dedicated to cultivating greater health, well-being, and aliveness in the world ~ one body, heart, mind, and family at a time. I have a private counseling practice in Bellevue, lead experiential workshops and groups, and teach mindbody classes, such as Yoga and Nia, in Redmond. I work with all clients who are committed to their personal growth, health, and wellness, using a variety of collaborative, strengths-based and clinically proven approaches.
Although I offer services for traditional counseling issues such anxiety, depression, life transitions and relationship challenges, I hold a special place in my practice for helping those living with chronic or stress-related illness, a history of Domestic Violence or trauma, and those who are caring for an ill or aging loved one.
I believe we are not meant to walk our path alone, especially when we are struggling with Life's challenges ~ find strength, support, skills, and "allies" within either my individual, family, group counseling, classes, workshops, and retreats.
