At Good Thinking Therapy Counseling, we provide mental health services to

individuals, couples and families struggling to overcome the challenges presented

in life. Some of our areas of focus include grieving, loss, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, and even impulse control.

INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
Counseling focuses on the needs or concerns of an individual
COUPLES COUNSELING
Counseling enhances the strength, intimacy, and closeness of a couple
FAMILY COUNSELING
Counseling realigns family relation- ships, communication, & identity
The therapeutic experience is created and shared by the willingness of both by the therapist and the client to share and to be honest with one another. Therapy can be both difficult and rewarding as it brings about change and experiencing uncomfortable and intense emotions can be a natural to part of that process. Ask questions and encourage yourself to be curious so that you are better able to work through intense emotions and the recall of unpleasant events. You are encouraged to discuss any thoughts or feelings you may have and can discontinue therapy at any time should you wish to do so. You may also request a referral to a new therapist at any time and you can refuse to do any activity you don't feel comfortable with. The most important aspect of therapy is your experience, so working together to ensuring a positive therapeutic experience is of the utmost Importance.

Seeking counseling is not easy. It takes bravery and commitment but it allows for the healing to begin Whether we realize it or not relationships are at the center of who we are as human beings. They encompass our hopes, dreams and future, as well as our biggest challenges, fears and disappointments. Whether you are seeking counseling for grief and loss, anxiety, depression, work related issues or some different reason altogether, relationships play a pivotal part in what you are experiencing. My philosophy for therapy is focused on building a compassionate, welcoming, and engaging person-centered therapeutic relationship with each client, that focuses on discovering individual strengths and empowering you to live happier, healthier, and more meaningful lives. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Washington, and a Licensed Certified addictions counselor. I received my graduate training from Eastern Washington University Social Work program. I use a CBT framework that is augmented with Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) informed skills, psycho-education, attachment theory and neurobiology. I have a holistic approach that focuses on problematic thoughts, emotions and behaviors that get in the way of us living the life we want to live. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and my pets and being in the outdoors, hiking, camping and four wheeling. I enjoy coffee in the mornings out on my deck, where I can watch the beauty of the Northwest unfold as the bird’s chirp and the sun comes up to welcome in the new day. The wilder side of me also enjoys loud music, going to concerts, comedy clubs and socializing with my friends.
