Yes, I am accepting new clients for in-person and telehealth sessions for individuals and couples. Please go to my website www.brightfuturecounseling1.com for more information. There is hope for healing and change. If your relationship suffers from sexual issues or broken trust, if there is room to improve communication or intimacy, or if you are not sure your relationship can be/is worth saving, I can offer you help. If you feel sad or depressed, have experienced loss, or have anxiety, there is hope. I provide a supportive nonjudgmental space for individuals of all genders and sexualities, traditional and nontraditional couples.

I am an experienced therapist meeting the highest standards of a National Board Certified Counselor, licensed in Wa., Or., and Ca. I am a psychology professor and a certified Marriage Therapist (training by Gottman Institute, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Prepare/Enrich) with training in Sexual Wellness and Transgender Health.
