Education, Credentials, & Professional Affiliations
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Biola University, graduating cum laude, and later completed my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy through Northcentral University. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of Washington, and I hold a certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.

Professional Focus
I have experience working with individuals, families, teens, and children, with a focus on supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and those navigating life transitions. I also support clients experiencing burnout and overwhelm—helping them slow down, reconnect with themselves, and develop sustainable ways to move forward.
In addition, I specialize in supporting families through the perinatal period, including pregnancy, postpartum, fertility challenges, and parenting. My approach is collaborative, practical, and compassionate—tailored to each client’s unique strengths, challenges, and goals.
Personal
I live in Snoqualmie with my husband and our two energetic young boys. I’m happiest outdoors and love hiking, camping, mountain biking, rock climbing, and exploring new adventures with my family. I also enjoy baking, reading, building Legos, and spending time with my family
