Helping children and adults with anxiety feel better quicker!
Loved ones, especially teenagers, seem to have a knack for pushing our buttons. My theory is that We often know how to make someone mad in five words or less. It could be a word, a gesture, a look, or a sound it can be really hard to maintain your cool when your buttons get pushed.
Many people also wonder if they might have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Many women in their 40s and 50s are being diagnosed due to changes that are happening in their bodies per menopause and menopause increase hormones, which intern can make executive functioning harder you might have always had attention challenges, but now there are so much harder to manage.
During a during an intake, you’ll fill out several questionnaires that are related to attention, anxiety, and other factors that can make it hard to manage our emotions in the moment. for youth under 10, the parents fill these out with the child together. We’ll use this information to come up with some goals together that can help you and your family have more peace at home.
I use monthly questionnaires to assess how we’re doing. We can see progress and how our solutions are working together. There are other approaches such as EMDR, I movement, desensitization, and re-processing therapy, which is a gradual approach to working through sensations and memories from the past. I also utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. Our holistic approach focuses on mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being, ensuring a comprehensive path to recovery.

The length of time it takes to see results from counseling sessions with Healing Pause Mental Health Counseling and Coaching varies depending on the individual and the issues being addressed. Some clients may see improvements after just a few sessions, while others may require longer-term therapy.
I offer support for various issues such as adulting, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, and Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing Therapy. We will collaborate to create a personalized treatment plan aligned with your goals and values.
The frequency of counseling sessions will depend on your needs and goals. Some persons benefit from weekly sessions, while others may attend bi-weekly or monthly. Most generally start once a week and then increase the time between sessions as you experience relief.
I get it. We all have so many areas in our lives where we can use support. I will work with you to explore what area of your life you want to see change in first. I can help you clarify what strengths and skills you already have to bring into the areas you need help with.
We will talk about your specific goals and how to accomplish them. Many people find relief using Eye Movement Depersonalization and Reprocessing Therapy or by learning new skills
We will talk about your specific goals and how to accomplish them together
Persons with Attention Deficit Disorder have many different areas of strengths and challenges. Sometimes people freeze when they have too many choices. Maybe you can start interesting things but avoid starting boring tasks. You might finish things 80% of the time and let’s not talk about how many projects are lying around in the closet.
We will work on goals together and then I will pick an approach that likely works well for you. It can be adjusted at any time.
We could use an approach like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, discussion guides, and homework. I often email .pdf files after a session to review on your own and/or practice skills.
We’ll focus on this topic and set solution-focused goals. We can also do skills coaching.
We can use an approach like EMDR or Cognitive Processing Training. There are certain coping skills taught before EMDR processing.
Therapists often provide information about topics like flight/flight/freeze and action paralysis. If you feel you know this information then we can focus on setting a path to move forward
We will work on this goal by exploring the past, building coping skills, and using tools to understand what is driving the behaviors. EMDR is my preferred tool for this.
Cognitive Processing Therapy is 10-14 highly structured sessions. Workbooks are available to download online or you can purchase your own.
Sometimes you need a lighter session or two to talk about what was processed. We will switch or add approaches if needed.
There can be many sensitive topics like money, shame, and past choices. It’s okay to bring it up. You can ask me about the topic first if you aren’t sure.
Money can be a "touchy" subject for many people. I specialize in helping you reduce your financial anxiety and retail therapy. I can't help you do the dishes but I can help you figure out how to do them before company comes over. I can refer you to talk to someone about marriage counseling if you want to work together with your partner on these challenges
I encourage you to be honest about how you think things are going. You will not hurt my feelings by sharing yours. Feedback can improve how therapy works for you. Sometimes counseling can be uncomfortable and it’s important to share that in session. Neurodivergent persons don't communicate differently. Many feel they can't "read the situation" or don't want to say anything because they think it's mean. This is your time to be heard.
I encourage you to bring your sense of humor, your love of gaming, and other things that bring you joy into the session. You are welcome to drop some of those F bombs if you need to. There are limits to confidentiality in counseling and coaching. You will be provided with a consent form that explains your rights. You may also find more information at the Department of Health or with the Revised Codes of Washington. While you may bring up almost any topic I may not have the expertise needed to help you with that topic. I can refer you to someone to help you with that in addition to working with me or you can transfer your care. https://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=70.02.230 or doh.wa.gov
I chose this name because of my dog's healing paws. It's almost impossible to pause life and take care of our needs. We don't get a lot of time or breaks from technology. Have you tried to get a friend to put down their phone?
