Professional Disclosure Statement
Philosophy and Approach: Connection with you, the client, and offering a calming and safe environment
are my primary goals. From this authentic connection, we creatively explore together how to help you
lead your best life. I draw on my life experiences and education to serve you with empathy and
acceptance. The approach used will vary based upon your unique situation, our agreement on the next
best step, and my instinct and training. I meet you where you are and offer flexibility in my style. I can sit
with you while you share your deepest feelings and secrets or I can be a partner in playful exploration. I
have worked successfully with clients from age 3 to 70 years old with diverse backgrounds. My training
and studies have included mindfulness based cognitive therapy, experiential exercises, nonviolent
communication, sandtray, Adlerian theories, acceptance and commitment therapy, play therapy,
cognitive behavioral therapy, gestalt, and solution focused techniques. My background in authentic
dance movement and Qigong enables me to bring deep attention and mindfulness to the experience.
Formal Education and Training: I am a graduate of George Fox University in the masters program for
Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Specialized training includes sandtray therapy, Adlerian Play Therapy
and theories, nonviolent communication, Qigong, and authentic dance movement. I am frequently
building upon my knowledge base and techniques through individualized studies. To date, I have studied
mindfulness based cognitive therapy, experiential exercises, acceptance and commitment theories,
cognitive behavioral therapy, gestalt, and solution focused techniques.
