I am Master’s level therapist and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LH60656337) in the state of Washington.

I received a M.A. in Counseling Psychology from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology.

I have also double majored with a B.A. in Psychology and a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Northwest University.

My experiences have prepared me well to be both professional and personable.  I have been counseling in various capacities for the past 15 years and it has been an honor to be a help people along the way.

I am also currently employed as a teaching pastor at Gateway Fellowship in Poulsbo, WA where I have the opportunity to help strengthen couples and families to become who they were meant to be. We have recently opened Gateway Counseling which allows me to see clients in Poulsbo as well on a limited basis.  Prior to this, I served as the student ministries pastor in which I had the opportunity to lead and mentor adolescents along with the parents of teens and pre-teens.

My pastoral roles have allowed me to experience and serve different cultures such as India and Indonesia.  In addition to these, I have helped those in need in the inner cities of East L.A. and Washington D.C.  These experiences have helped me to be more culturally conscious as I enter into new relationships.

I previously worked with Catholic Community Services of Western Washington, which is located in Bremerton, Washington.  I had the opportunity to work with a vast array of clients to prepare me for the diversity that Western Washington offers.
