Accepting new clients!

Mind Forge Therapy focuses on providing comprehensive mental health services aimed at promoting well-being and personal growth. I began my counseling journey through my graduate program at Gonzaga University. After receiving my Master of Art in Marriage and Family Counseling (2015) I was able to provide services to high risk youth and families as well as working in intensive in home and outpatient services.

My clinical approach focuses on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with elements of trauma-informed care. I am dedicated to helping individuals heal from past traumatic experiences and begin developing healthy coping strategies to move forward in life. My approach to trauma therapy is rooted in a profound understanding of its complexities and a genuine desire to help you build a path toward a healthier, more fulfilling life. I have dedicated my practice to helping individuals navigate and heal from the profound effects of trauma. I emphasize collaboration, breaking established unhealthy patterns, creating new insights, and empowering clients to cultivate positive change in their lives. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or seeking to improve your overall mental health, I am here to support you on your journey towards greater resilience and emotional balance. Support is offered to individuals, youth, children, families, and couples, constructing therapy to meet each client's unique needs and circumstances. I look forward to meeting you!

Minors aged 13 and older can consent to mental health treatment without parental consent, provided the mental health professional deems them capable of understanding the nature and consequences of the treatment. However, parental involvement is encouraged whenever possible and appropriate. For minors under the age of 13, parental consent is typically required for mental health treatment, unless an exception applies where the minor's welfare is at risk or they are otherwise authorized by law to consent.
