We cannot undo our old mistakes or their consequences any more than we can erase old wounds that we have both suffered and
inflicted, but through the power that memory gives us of thinking, feeling, imagining our way back through time we can at
long last finally finish with the past in the sense of removing its power to hurt us and other people and to stunt our
growth as human beings.
Frederick Buechner
I work with individuals, couples, and groups. Since graduating with my Masters in Counseling from Western Seminary of Seattle, I have provided counseling in a university setting, an in-patient hospitalization program, an intensive day treatment program, as adjunct faculty at Seattle Pacific University, and now in private practice. My areas of special interest include:
- Bi-racial/multi-cultural issues/ Third Culture Kids
- Adoptee/Adoptive parent/ Adoption Triad issues
- Life transitions(Grief/Loss)
- Depression
- Abuse
- Personal Growth
My fees will vary depending on the type of work we do. I request you pay the full fee by cash or check at the beginning of each session. The full fee will be charged for any sessions cancelled without a 24 hour notice. Because the relationship between therapist and client is vital to the transformational work of therapy, I offer an initial 20 minute free session to let you evaluate me as a therapist.
Individual: $85 per 50 minute session
Couple: $100 per 90 minute session
Group: $60/person per 90 minute session
Student: $50 per 50 minute session
A sliding fee scale is available for those who are unemployed or experiencing hardship situations.
Because insurance providers vary in their policies for reimbursement for a registered counselor, you will be responsible to know the benefits and limitations of your policy. Though I do not bill insurance companies on behalf of my clients, I am more than happy to provide you the information you need to file with your specific insurance.
