Introduction

As a Licensed Mental Health Professional and clinical executive with 15+ years of experience, I am dedicated to advancing specialized behavioral healthcare through integrity and innovation. My work focuses on supporting individual adults in their healing journey and mentoring the next generation of therapists. At Olympic Trauma Specialists, I prioritize a trauma-informed framework rooted in safety, transparency, and client agency. Whether through direct clinical care or professional supervision, I utilize somatic awareness and grounding tools to help individuals navigate the complexities that accompany trauma work. My goal is to foster a collaborative environment where clinicians and clients alike can develop the tools necessary for long-term regulation and resilience.
