My approach to therapy revolves around putting my clients at the center of the process. This means tailoring treatment to suit your specific needs and preferences. It could involve processing through deep-rooted issues, equipping you with coping mechanisms and practical skills, or even collaboration to problem solve. For me, being a therapist is a profound privilege to walk alongside my clients on their journey towards self-discovery and growth. I see each client as an individual with unique experiences, challenges, and aspirations. My role is to support you in realizing your vision for yourself and help navigate through whatever obstacles you may encounter along the way.

Do you feel a persistent sense of unease? Exhausted from the pressures of life? Frustrated with how your past is impacting you? Overwhelmed by the thought of starting therapy? Often our struggles alone feel unbearable, and the idea of addressing them only adds more stress. But you can get to where you'd like to be. It just takes learning to endure the discomfort of the growth and healing process. I am dedicated to helping you walk through the discomfort —to gain self insight, to make changes in your life, to feel more at ease, and attain your goals.

I am in network with Regence and Premera.

Hi! I'm Kearsten and I am so glad you have landed on my page. I care deeply about each of my clients flourishing. At times, experiences with life can keep us from that- maybe it's anxiety, complicated family dynamics, or life just simply not looking the way you would hoped it would. While therapy with me (or anyone) does not immediately take the pain away, I am here to help you navigate it, finding healing and joy along the way.

My approach with clients is one of compassion and collaboration. I will work as hard as you, helping you cultivate the change you wish to see, all from a place of empathy, authenticity, and hope.

Navigating through our life journey has its challenges, but I believe the other side has limitless opportunities. Are you tired of feeling stressed, at a standstill, undervalued, and on edge? Do you feel like you are just waiting for the next calamity to happen, yet still exhausted from your current situation? I can help support you as you work through these issues. You don't have to do it alone. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. ~Lao Tzu.

I want to help you feel enjoyment and security again. Renew the excitement you remember about your future and your family’s future. Feel the breakthrough and experience the freedom as you release the burden of stress in your life. Claim the revived version of yourself. Forget about the new dilemma. Experience the journey and say today was a great day!

My passion is to help you grow and develop into who you have always dreamed of becoming. I look forward to our partnership on the road to healing and wholeness. Send me an email today to schedule an appointment. I am currently only TELEHEALTH at this time!!!!!

My name is Candace Nino, I am a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and a Registered Associate Professional Clinical Counselor. I graduated from California Baptist University with a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology. I have had the opportunity to work with the young adolescent population to provide school based therapy for the last four years. I have also gained clinical experience working with special education students who have faced emotional disturbances that impede their academic functioning. I have had the privilege of treating clients who struggled with depression, generalized anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, oppositional defiant disorder and personality disorders. My theoretical orientation is Personal Centered Therapy and occasionally I utilize an eclectic approach to accommodate the clients individual needs and implement appropriate techniques that are most beneficial for the client. I provide therapeutic services to individuals, couples, and families looking for additional social emotional support.

I aspire to assist clients in their moments of triumph as well as defeat, self-discovery, and understanding. I emphasize clients strengths and provide a safe environment to explore areas of growth and turmoil. My ultimate goal is to set the client up for success in achieving the best version of themselves and to sustain healthy functioning and symptom management. It would be a privilege to accompany you on your therapeutic journey.
