About Carie

My life's work is holding space for folx along their journey of remembering. It is an honor and a joy to walk this path. I believe we are Divine Spiritual Beings having humxn experiences. When we remember who we are, our system has the capacity to heal itself. 

I have navigated many life transitions, some more gracefully than others. I have made career changes, embarked on parenthood, moved to new countries, suffered losses, and answered the call to adventure to name just a few of the transitions I've moved through. 

I earned a Bachelors of Science in Environmental Science from the University of Washington and a Masters of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Bastyr University. 

I have completed Level 3 training through the IFS Institute. I am trained in both IFS and IFIO. These modalities blend well with the mind-body-spirt based work I have done for over 10 years. 

I am a Healing Arts Practitioner and Teacher. I bring my intuition and experience as a healing guide to my work in psychotherapy. This work amplifies my work with Somatic IFS. 

I am EMDR trained and a Certified Trauma Professional. I have been a volunteer crisis hotline support at Crisis Connections and provided mental health training for parents of the Shoreline School District in collaboration with the University of Washington's Forefront program. 

I am a mother, explorer, and lifetime learner. In my free time, I enjoy being in nature, learning about our world and its inhabitants, creating all sorts of arts and crafts, reading, and connecting with family and friends. 

I strive to be antiracist and culturally humble. I am a LGBTQIA2S+ and ND affirming practitioner.
