Therapists in Oregon

Now accepting new clients and OHP insurance. I focus on helping couples and individuals rebuild trust, connection, safety, and security in the key relationships in their lives. Almost everything we do, every reaction we have, every decision we make, and every relationship we form ultimately results from our inner dynamics, and I help clients identify and work through these dynamics. Therapeutic space allows clients to feel heard, reconnect with themselves, gain greater self-awareness, learn to understand and handle triggers, change unhelpful patterns, and overcome life challenges.

Therapy is deeply vulnerable work, but by building trust in the therapeutic relationship we can explore and identify automatic patterns and habits that may be keeping you from feeling your best and work together to practice new ways of living. In my work, I pull from a variety of theoretical approaches including Brainspotting, EMDR, CBT, Family Systems Theory, Internal Family Systems, Attachment Theory, Narrative Therapy, Polyvagal Theory, and Mindfulness Based practices.

Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, anger, sadness, fear, trauma, or confusion is tough. Seeking support is a brave first step towards a more fulfilling life. Therapy provides a compassionate space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and gain deep insights. Whether facing stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or aiming for personal growth, therapy is transformative. It helps you understand yourself, build resilience, and pursue fulfillment. You're not alone—support, understanding, and hope are here for you.

Embarking on a journey of change takes a considerable amount of courage. As a therapist, I strive to create an engaging, comfortable, and safe space that allows you to tune into your own process of coping. I welcome all experiences, thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. I trust that inner and outer harmony thrive on the acceptance and understanding of all aspects of ourselves. I see myself as a companion on your path, ready to support you with compassionate presence and professional knowledge. I am a certified IFS (Internal Family Systems) therapist, have completed EMDR training, and am a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher.

Could you be making better decisions? Tired of arguing with your partner? Would you like to start regulating your emotions? I help empower children, couples, families and individuals with a solution oriented and mindful approach while improving relationships with self and others. We can acknowledge hurts, break old patterns, learn new communication and coping skills, heal, and achieve optimum well being. Let's chart a course to achieve the best version of you. I also work with athletes to increase personal strengths and confidence while leading them to a lifetime of balanced mind body to achieve their athletic + personal goals.

You did it! You made the first step of asking for support, and that is a huge step. If you are stressed, overwhelmed, dealing with change (which we always are), feeling alone, anxious, or struggling with whatever life has thrown at you, please know you don't have the go through it all alone. We are meant to connect with one another and therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental connection that can lead to promising outcomes.

My expansive experience enhances the empathy, relatability, dignity, skill, and understanding desired in a therapist. It's important that you feel that your therapist is a good fit for you, so if you're seeking a seasoned therapist in these relatable life conditions, please connect with me for a free consultation.

I specialize in work with individuals who experience Anxiety Disorders (OCD, General Anxiety, Phobias), Depression, Insomnia, Autism Spectrum Disorders as well as those with medical or complex presentations (e.g. depression and diabetes). I believe therapy must involve a human connection and have come to find a good sense of humor is critical to the work done in therapy. Without a strong therapeutic relationship, it is nearly impossible to make progress. However, within the context of a collaborative, supportive environment, CBT tools can be very useful. When CBT tools are not helpful, eccentric evidence-based practices may be.

I enjoy working with people from a variety of backgrounds, sexualities, gender identities, personalities, and cultures. It is important to me to recognize and honor individual identities as they come into the room. For me, safety in therapy to express the parts of ourselves that desire authentic honesty is imperative. I welcome children and their families using Child-Centered Play Therapy to help them express their current struggles and emotions. I would also welcome individuals and couples using Person-Centered therapy and Internal Family Systems using Restoration Therapy as a foundation.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, or low self esteem? Do you have unresolved traumas, big or little T? Do you wish you had a better body image, or could control emotional eating? Have difficulty setting boundaries and find yourself resentful because of it? Many people who didn't get their needs met in the past struggle to be truly kind to themselves and need a compassionate witness in that process. These are some of the issues I work with on a regular basis in my practice. I see people new to therapy, as well as those who are continuing their journey towards greater authenticity, healing, and meaning.

You are insightful and high-achieving, but you are struggling with confidence, coping with stress, or taking care of your own needs. You might have an idea of what you want in life but don’t know how to get there. You are taking care of everyone but yourself. Maybe anxiety, uncertainty, unhelpful thoughts, painful memories, or old patterns are holding you back. Perhaps you need to make a change, or you’re in the midst of a change and struggling to adjust. You want to gain deeper insight into yourself and your experiences, and you’re ready to change your “default setting” and start creating new patterns in your life.

You're here because you've been thinking about therapy for a while. It takes time to recognize that we are unhappy with the course of our lives and relationships and that meaningful change is even possible. There are reasons why you are feeling the way you are, and we can uncover those reasons and create new paths going forward. In our work together I'll create a safe place for us to explore these feelings and assist you in sifting out those thoughts about self that work for you from those that don't.

You've let go of the toxic relationship, addictive behavior, and self defeating patterns, and you want to remain empowered, strong, supported through it all. You seek someone you can talk to, someone other than friend or family. Whether you're recovering from a break-up or a major life event like Pandemic or career change, it's time to build support and concrete skills for the healthy, authentic life you've always desired.

Expertise in child and teen school, developmental, behavioral, and emotional concerns. If you’re a worried parent losing sleep about your child, and things are not getting better and you fear that it might not just be a phase. You want to go through the day without worrying about your child constantly. You’re tired of getting calls from school. You don’t want to think about that awful thing that happened, their behavior, or their emotional outbursts. After taking to other parents, your friends, their teachers, or maybe even your pediatrician, you feel like it’s time to see someone.

I am actively accepting new clients. If you are seeking help with trauma, an eating disorder, struggles with food, your body, or anything in between, there are options other than what we have been taught. Our culture and our world often create an environment for people that encourages self denial. A wide variety of traumas often leave people with chronic feelings of fear, trouble with sleep, relationship distress, and dependence on something that might harm them.

If you're seeking an empowering and transformative experience of therapy, I'd love to support you. I have built my practice to focus on all things relationships: I work especially well with relational trauma, breaches of trust, repairing severed relationships, communication, non-normative relationships, as well as family & reproductive support. I am approachable and bring a solid, vigorous presence to our encounters - you will not feel adrift in our sessions. My style is engaged, directive, and sometimes humorous, and always tender and reverent of all of who you are.

I have had the privilege of being a resource to individuals facing various challenges. I will be accepting, flexible, and non-judgmental, whether you're exploring questions around anxiety, trauma, gender identity, or sexual orientation.

Accepting new clients for telehealth! I offer relational, affirming, & approachable therapy for teens and young adults (14-24ish) that helps navigate the often turbulent times of adolescence & emerging adulthood. I work with young people so that they can feel less alone and more connected to a greater understanding of themselves, their joy, and how to move through hardship. As a therapist, my goal is to create a warm, open, and non-judgmental space where you can feel more understood, connected, and supported. I believe that healing happens within trusting relationships and that we shouldn’t have to go through difficulty alone.
