I strive to create a safe, respectful space in which we can work together to understand the current problems and conflicts impacting your life, and identify self-defeating patterns that keep you from reaching your full potential. We will watch to see how and when these patterns occur in the therapeutic process itself and work to trace problems back to their roots in earlier periods of your life. By gaining a deeper understanding of ourselves, we attain greater freedom to choose how we wish to live, to strengthen our relationships and find joy in life.

I think of my approach to helping people as a collaborative and educational one. Most people who come in for therapy are wanting to make a change in their lives but are struggling in some manor. I feel that the best way to implement change is through one's thoughts (cognitions), feelings, and behaviors-this kind of approach is known as Cognitive-Behavioral therapy (CBT).
A person needs to welcome the challenges and opportunities in his or her life with a clear and calm mind - These are the cognitive and behavioral aspects of CBT.

I work with the full spectrum of development, from personal and relational issues to transpersonal and spiritual growth issues. As relational beings, the power to heal and grow is unlocked through our relationship to self and others, so this is at the center of the work. Using the relationship and our present moment awareness, we can explore self-limitations, alienation in relationships, lack of fulfillment, and the understandable anxiety and depression that arises from those challenges.

Hello! My guess is that you're currently feeling a bit overwhelmed and possibly frustrated by the task of finding a therapist who both resonates with you and, is available. Being overwhelmed by the complexity of our lives, by our relationships, our work-lives and by the financial pressures we sometimes face seems to have become the "new normal" for many of us. Helping clients better manage these challenges while finding new solutions in an open-minded, comfortable and at times humorous environment is at the core of my practice. I enjoy working with youth, adults and couples seeking helpful new life-skills and big picture clarity.

I love working with individuals of all ages and couples, particularly adolescents and women. Because we all face challenges in our lives, outside support can be very helpful. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and strive to create an environment where each person feels seen and valued as they journey toward wellness. I have experience supporting adults and teens dealing with depression and anxiety and working through issues of trauma, grief and loss, parenting and relationships of all kinds. If you sense that something needs to shift in your life, therapy can be a beautiful space to explore new possibilities.

I believe healing happens in relationship with ourselves, with others, and within the stories and systems we carry. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are navigating grief, trauma, identity, isolation, or the weight of holding it all together for others. Some are couples feeling disconnected; others are helpers holding the stories of those they serve. Many seek a compassionate, grounded space where they can feel seen, supported, and met with care.

There it is...that all too familiar thought…emotion…or behavior. It continues to search for a resolve to what life has brought. Therapy is a place to gain understanding and insight to make personal change, learn a new way to manage emotions or relationships, find purpose in the things we do.

I am excited to have recently moved my practice from Portland to Vancouver, WA and am happy to provide care to clients who live in Washington,Oregon and California. I am able to teach people skills that will transform their relationships. I work with couples and families who really want to make changes in the way they relate to one another, helping them to understand that conflict is normal and natural. I also enjoy helping people who have been traumatized. My seven years at the VA Outpatient Clinic has well prepared me to work with those who have been traumatized, are depressed or are grieving.

Addiction is more than just a struggle with substances; it's a profound battle that affects every aspect of an individual's life. It can strain relationships, disrupt careers, and take a toll on your health, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and stuck in a cycle of pain.

Together, we’ll uncover your strengths and equip you with new tools to regain control and move forward.

Do you ever feel stuck or confused about why you think, feel, or behave a certain way? Childhood trauma, difficult life experiences, life transitions, and relationships can deeply impact how we view ourselves and the world around us, sometimes leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, or doubt.
Each person has a unique story to tell, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space where children, teens, and individuals can explore their experiences and begin the journey toward healing. My goal as a counselor is to help you build healthy connections that foster understanding, well-being, and lasting growth.

You've been suffering on your own for far too long, pushing away the pain until it feels like you have nothing left. You're exhausted. You feel alone but you put on a mask, smiling on the outside while you're in so much pain inside. Because you pull it together for the people around you, nobody realizes what is going on. You've lost interest in everything. You can't concentrate. Sometimes you hate yourself and wonder if you deserve to feel good ever again. You feel weak and you are so tired of this pain. It's time for a change.

I firmly believe that growth has two paths. To truly flourish, one must balance a desire for change with a true willingness to accept oneselve for who you are. A treatment that embraces this idea is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and it's the core philosophy I use with my patients every day. In treatment, DBT concepts focus on changing things that are getting in the way of living the life you want, while accepting yourself unconditionally. The focus is to develop a life worth living. My program offers a full finality DBT which includes individual therapy, group skills training, and phone consultation.

Life can be full of stress, grief, and suffering, and as human beings, it can be challenging for us to navigate through all of the negative thoughts, emotions, and experiences that we encounter.
