I am offering HIPAA-compliant teletherapy in Washington State. I am a culturally sensitive neurodivergent psychologist who specializes in working with neurodivergent and neurotypical people with all sorts of difficulties. I also provide supervision in these areas.
I currently accept the following insurances: Premera, Regence, First Choice, Ambetter, and Aetna. I can also see clients with CHPW and Coordinated Care Medicaid plans.
Whether in my life or at work, I always look at the world through the neurodiversity perspective. This sees neurological differences as valid, real, and valuable. I am affirming of neurological differences and teach people to embrace their differences and use them to make this world a beautiful and colorful place.
I utilize systems and humanistic therapies - forms of therapy that see the whole person and their context, not just a label or a symptom. I further utilize tools from other therapies to best serve each client with whom I work. I also specialize in psychological testing/assessment of children, adolescents and adults. In supervision, I use these tools to teach therapists to apply these tools in their own practice.

Therapy is one of my passions. I am currently offering telehealth sessions. Whether individual, family, or couples- I can offer a unique experience to better your mental and emotional health.
I am trained in Family Systems Therapy, DBT, and other approaches. I will collaborate with other systems to set goals, fostering an appreciation for the uniqueness of self and others.
Whether you have almost all your supervision hours or are just starting out, individual supervision is an amazing way to grow professionally and emotionally.
In weekly or bimonthly meetings, we will explore places your successes, where you are feeling stuck, ethical dilemmas, and discuss clinical formulation.

In a group that meets twice a month for two hours each meeting we will explore many aspects of being a therapist including clinical formulation, transference and countertransference, boundaries, crisis man

To best meet the needs of busy clinicians, consultation sessions are available in a variety of formats, including:
Humans are complex. Many times people receive diagnoses, therapy, or medications based on a simplistic understanding of problems or by focusing too heavily on overt symptoms or behaviors instead of getting a sense of the whole person. Clinical psychological assessment seeks to understand problems on deeper level. This leads to more accurate diagnoses, better therapy, and understanding oneself.
Assessment usually takes place over multiple meetings. First, a detailed history is gathered. Then a client will be asked to participate in various psychological tests – some paper and pencil, some over the computer, some responding to the psychologist. Finally, a detailed report is written and shared in a feedback session.
Just like therapy, I believe testing is a process. It takes time, and it takes trust. I know testing is a vulnerable situation and I will do my best to make it a pleasant one.
A few things you should know going in: I will not recommends ABA services. I am a collaborative problem-solver, and I will always include this in my recommendations. I will uphold my devotion to the neurodiversity community
