I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual counseling for adults in the Bellingham area. I received my Master’s in Psychology and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University in Seattle. I also hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting and a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Art from the University of Washington.

​

I have over a decade of clinical experience working in mental health settings and have provided therapy to adults since 2010. I primarily work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and ADHD, as well as concerns related to life transitions, relationships, communication, stress, and emotional regulation.

​

While my background includes formal training in art-based approaches, I primarily practice talk therapy. Art-based techniques may be incorporated when clinically appropriate and of interest to the client.

​

I love talking with people and am deeply passionate about my work. I find each person to be unique and valuable in their own way, and I consider it a privilege to be invited into my clients’ lives. I am often moved by the strength and insight of the people I work with, and I find it incredibly meaningful to witness their growth and increased sense of balance over time.
