I am currently a LMHC in the state of Washington. I have the following educational background:

    - BA in ministry Hope International University- Fullerton, California 
    - MA in Pastoral Counseling Hope International University- Fullerton, California
    - MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University- Minneapolis, Minnesota 

I specialize in DBT, EMDR, and offer talk therapy and other modalities based on the needs of my clients.  EMDR is on a one-on-one basis and not all clients are candidates for EMDR.  I work with adult individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, PTSD, or adjustment difficulties. 
Counseling offers you a safe place and a chance to express your ideas, concerns, and challenges to understand your situation better and learn new ways to problems solve proactively. There are some risks and limitations to counseling. You may sometimes experience very uncomfortable feelings as you work through difficult and challenging-to-face feelings, memories, and thoughts. I will do my best to help you learn skills to cope through those times.
