Meet our Team

All of us at Folktown Counseling have obtained our masters degrees with either an associate or full license through the state of Washington (we do not hire “certified” BA level counselors). Additionally, each of us participate in our own personal therapy while working as counselors. This is due to our collective belief that as therapists we can only take someone as far as we have gone ourselves.

As clinicians it is our deepest joy to help clients in the reduction of mental health symptoms and guide them towards a journey of healing and personal growth. All of us (unless noted) are in network with Premera, Lifewise, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Regence, Kaiser (PPO), Heritage & The First Choice Network.

Skipper

Everyone

Skipper is an English Cream Golden Retriever. He is known to visit the office on occasion and loves to sit with clients (although he is also prone to falling asleep during sessions). His favorite snacks are Trader Joe’s unsalted peanut butter pretzels. See my full profile

Please let us know, if for any reason you have a fear of dogs, and we will schedule you on a day when he is not at the office.
