Organizational Unit: Behavioral Health Providers

Hailing from the great state of Tennessee (Good ‘ol Rocky Top!), I did my undergrad at Middle Tennessee State University in Liberal Studies and completed by graduate degree at The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology in 2016. My clinical focus since my internship days has been combining a critical-social approach to therapy with mindfulness practice and somatic work. My favorite (FAVORITE) part about being in community health is working together with folks to make tiny changes in their day to day lives which ultimately have a big impact on an overall sense of health and well-being.

I joined Unity Care NW in November of 2018.

I received my Master’s of Social Work from Walla Walla University, and have over 20 years of experience utilizing evidenced based practices to improve behavioral health with individuals, couples and families in multidisciplinary settings.

I enjoy being part of a team that sees each person as a unique individual and supports them in making positive life changes.

I got into the field of counseling in order to help others. We all face challenges and sometimes need support to help us navigate these challenges and reach our goals. Each person is unique, and I really appreciate the opportunity to help others reach their goals and lead healthier lives. I enjoy and am proud of the work we do at Unity Care NW for our community.

I earned my BA degree in English from Western Washington University. I received my MA degree in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University in Seattle and am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.
