Ellen Krumm, MA, LMHCA

Counseling Team

Ellen has a masters degree in Psychology/Systems Counseling from the LIOS graduate college of Saybrook University, and training in various methods of therapy including: Cognitive Behavioral, Structural, Strategic, Narrative, and Solution-Focused. She uses a gently direct approach: "direct" stemming from her New York roots, softened by years of "gentle" west coast living. She believes adamantly in the power of informal therapy, i.e. that insight and growth occur while conversing over everyday activities such as chores, walks, and meals. She enjoys helping clients find balance between fun and responsibility in these real-life settings.

Ishani Grover, MA, LMHCA

Brenda Cole, MA Candidate

I was born and raised in Colorado, moved to Montana for my undergrad degree (in Natural Horsemanship and Literature and Writing) and recently moved to Washington. I'm a current student at Prescott College in the limited residency masters program, following a Clinical Mental Health track with a concentration area in Equine Assisted Mental Health. Despite a non-horse urban family, I'm horse crazy. I had my first riding lesson at age 5 and haven't looked back, spending many years working at Knick O' Time Horse Rescue and Rehab as well as 10 active years as a 4-H member in all horse projects. In my spare time when I'm not with the ponies, I enjoy cooking good food and baking treats for my house, reading engaging books, and playing board and card games with friends. I also love napping and snuggling with my cat.

Derrek Bushman

My name is Derrek. The world is an amazing place that has adventures for those willing to claim them. I love the outdoors. Camping, fishing, hiking, hunting or just spending a day in the woods. I was raised around animals my whole life and enjoy and respect them. I enjoy helping others, I am a firm believer that everyone in society has an ability that they can share to strengthen another. Folks run into each other in life for a reason, I reckon it is up to us whether we take the time and opportunity to make a impact or just let it slip by. I look forward to the opportunity to serve our clients. See y'all soon.
