Trauma can change how you see yourself, other people, and the world. Many people seek therapy not because they want to talk indefinitely, but because they want relief, clarity, and a path forward.

My practice is centered around Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)—a structured, research-supported treatment for trauma that is designed to help people reduce distress and regain a sense of agency in a defined period of time.

I also maintain a limited number of insurance-based therapy slots for clients seeking ongoing care.

                                          Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)

CPT is a focused, evidence-based treatment for trauma and PTSD. It helps people identify and change unhelpful beliefs connected to traumatic experiences and supports meaningful recovery without requiring open-ended therapy.

The CPT program I offer:
  • Is structured and time-limited
  • Typically consists of 12 weekly sessions
  • Is delivered via secure telehealth or in-person in Tacoma, WA
  • Is offered outside of insurance
This option is a good fit for people who want a clear treatment plan, are ready to engage actively in the work, and prefer structure over ambiguity.

                                               Insurance-Based Therapy (Limited Availability)

I also offer ongoing psychotherapy for a limited number of clients who wish to use insurance.

Please note:

  • Insurance availability is limited
  • I currently accept Optum and Premera
  • This option is separate from the CPT program

This may be a good fit if you are seeking ongoing therapy rather than a structured trauma treatment program.
I work with adolescents and adults navigating:

Trauma and PTSD
Childhood or complex trauma
Grief and loss
Anxiety related to trauma
Adjustment to major life changes


My approach is direct, thoughtful, and grounded in evidence-based practice.
I value clarity, collaboration, and sustainability—for both clients and clinician.

                                                    Telehealth & Licensure

I provide telehealth services to clients located in PsyPact-participating states, which allows me to work with individuals across multiple states, not just where I am physically located.
                                                                          Training & Consultation

In addition to clinical work, I provide training and consultation to organizations on:
  • evidence-based, sustainable approaches to supporting people in distress
  • reducing staff burnout
  • how to effectively navigate conflict
