Welcome to Drawbridge Counseling and thank you for taking the time to discover if my services may be of help for you.

I am very passionate about the work that I do with my clients.  I have worked for over 25 years in the counseling and helping professions, with adults, children, and families going through transitions and crises. Drawbridge Counseling is my private practice where I work primarily with adults who are suffering from trauma, depression, anxiety, loss, PTSD, grief, interpersonal relationship problems, communication difficulties, transition, and any combination of these.  I also work with couples who are experiencing distance, communication difficulties, infidelity, parenting difficulties, and considering separation and/or divorce.

I utilize EMDR and Hakomi, a body centered therapy, as well as Polyvagal Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and an eclectic mix of other therapeutic modalities.

. I am an art therapist but not all of my clients do art. You can read more about Art Therapy here.  I work 1 on 1, individually, with adults and couples.

Drawbridge Counseling is located inside of the One Earth Natural Medicine Clinic in downtown Burien, just 15 minutes from downtown Seattle on Mondays. Tuesday-Friday I provide telehealth using Simple Practice software, a HIPAA compliant platform.

What do the letters after my name mean? I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC)  in the state of Washington and a nationally Registered Art Therapist, Board Certified (ATR-BC). I received my Master's Degree in Psychology and Art Therapy (MA) from Antioch University. I am also a registered yoga teacher.
