Hello, Thank you for visiting my
site. I am a Licensed
Mental Health Counselor with an office in I perform diagnostic
assessment to help parents and teachers get clear on how a child sees the
world in terms of a diagnostic template.
I am not a psychometrist (a psychologist who tests for learning
disabilities) but have the ability based on my experience and client research
to suggest appropriate “neurotypes” of the children who come to my
practice. My experience informs me
that children who fit into different diagnostic “clans” have typical patterns
of strength and challenge. I work to
build the force of each child’s unique strengths in his life. I help
parents troubleshoot and develop creative strategies to deal with oppositionality,
inattention, learning disabilities, and other issues typical of Attention
Different children. And I am a guide for parents as they seek services from a
complex set of bureaucracies, including school, involved in their child’s
life. Though I began in the
field formally as a crisis counselor in 1976, I have been interested in
psychology since I was twelve years-old.
I am trained and experienced in psychosomatic psychology,
cognitive-behavioral approaches, and, from 1991, practical neuropsychology. I am diagnosed with ADD and have other
family members with neuropsychological conditions. This has given me a great respect for the
impact of brain chemistry in how we see the world and act. I am a panel provider for
the Uniform Medical Plan and Regence Traditional. I work with other plans but am not
contracted as an “in-house” provider.
I do all insurance paperwork required for client reimbursement whether
I am in network or not. About the Art Seen on Childspirit I
include images of art done by my daughter Natalie Dawn Lynn in the upper left
hand corner of many of the pages on this site. Natalie is a visual artist working with a
variety of materials and living in ( 425 454-1787 Fax 425 653-1644 |
