About Mark

I am licensed in Washington with 46 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients experiencing the flowing dimensions within depression-anxiety-panic as well as bi-polar and psychotic mental disorders and critical incident street management. An awareness of the fluid nature of grieving is important for the therapist. I believe you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in becoming aware of overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. Read more Show less
