About Jorie
Jorie draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape present patterns. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes. Emotionally-focused and client-centered work are woven in to help people connect with difficult feelings and clarify what matters most to them.
Her background includes work in therapeutic group homes, the juvenile justice system, community mental health, and private practice. Those roles exposed her to many different life situations and ways people get stuck. That variety informs how she tailors sessions to each person’s needs and circumstances.
In sessions she helps clients tell their story, notice recurring patterns, and set manageable goals. She often combines short-term goal work with deeper exploration of relationship and family influences. The aim is to build new coping skills while addressing the roots of recurring problems.
Jorie holds a Master of Arts in Child, Couple, and Family Therapy and a Master of Business Administration in Healthcare Management. She is a Washington LMFT and offers services in English. If you are thinking about starting therapy, she guides people through practical next steps and goal planning.
