History
Established in 2012.
Posting a review of my services is your right as a client and it is entirely up to you to decide whether you wish to write a review. But I gently discourage clients from posting reviews of my practice for the reasons below.
1. It is unethical for me to solicit testimonials from my clients
Since you may decide to return to therapy with me at a later date, I do not request testimonials from people who have ended therapy with me.
2. Unlike other business owners who may respond to their Yelp reviews, as a counselor, I must provide confidentiality to my clients. This means I am restricted from responding in any way that acknowledges whether someone has been in my care. Thus, I do not intend to respond to any reviews.
3. I hope that if we work together, we can discuss your feelings about our work directly and in person. This may not always feel comfortable, but the discussion of positive and negative reactions to our process can be an important part of your therapy.

Business Owner
I hold a Master of Arts in Counseling degree from Seattle University. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate and is a National Certified Counselor by the National Board for Certified Counselors. I have served as a mental health counselor for 5 years with the Washington State Department of Corrections, working with felony offenders with significant mental health issues, sexual offenders, and sexual minorities. I also completed a one-year internship working at Center for Human Services in Shoreline, WA, working with children, teens, and adolescents using various treatment modalities (CBT, DBT, Humanistic, Existential). My experience at internship also included working one day per week doing both individual and group counseling at a middle school, and group counseling with 9 – 14 year-olds at a low-income housing area. I am working on building his credentials for sports counseling, child, and marriage/family therapy.
