About

Hi! I’m Paige.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor Associate (LMHCA) and therapist providing individual therapy to youth and young adults (ages 12+) in Whatcom County and throughout the State of Washington. I am based in Bellingham, WA and call the Pacific Northwest home. I graduated with my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2023 from Northwest University and obtained my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology in 2018 from Western Washington University. I have previous clinical experience working with child and teenage survivors of abuse and trauma experiencing post-traumatic stress, depression, and anxiety.

My interest in working with teenage and young adult clients began within a youth ministry context and has been shaped by clinical experience working with survivors of child sexual abuse. I am passionate about working with issues related to anxiety, depression, trauma, and gender/sexual identity.

My approach to therapy is client-centered and driven in part by my belief in the importance of the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist. I provide a warm, empathetic, judgment-free space for clients to comfortably explore goals, process and discuss difficult topics, and build upon existing strengths to establish and maintain safe, happy, and fulfilling lives. I strive to infuse culturally sensitive and social justice approaches into my practice and am committed to these principles personally and professionally. I utilize ongoing education and training opportunities to enhance my clinical skills.

I live in Bellingham with my husband and our two dogs. In my free time, I enjoy reading, yoga, baking, video games, and collecting houseplants.
