Your Trusted Mental Health Therapist in Bellevue
As a licensed clinical psychologist with over two decades of experience, I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate emotional, behavioral, and biological challenges. My practice integrates a holistic perspective rooted in both psychology and nursing, emphasizing solution-focused approaches tailored to each client's unique needs. With a career spanning private practice since 2005 and extensive clinical roles at institutions like Seattle Mental Health and Evergreen Hospice Center, I bring deep expertise in stress management, depression, life transitions, and relationship dynamics. My Gottman-trained couples therapy methodology fosters collaborative relationships through improved conflict resolution and mutual respect.I maintain a safe, empathetic environment where clients explore personal growth, dismantle emotional barriers, and cultivate deeper self-awareness. My bilingual practice accommodates French-speaking clients, reflecting my commitment to accessible, culturally sensitive care. Community engagement remains central through free presentations addressing topics like depression's psychological value and navigating long-term marriages. Holding advanced degrees from Pacifica Graduate Institute and Bastyr University, I combine academic rigor with practical experience to support clients in transforming their realities through therapeutic insight.
