You are exhausted from always putting yourself last—caring for others while quietly running on empty. Part of you knows something isn’t working, but that voice is often overshadowed by a strong inner critic telling you to push through. You’ve read the books, tried to think your way out of it, practiced acceptance, and pushed through a lot of pain. You may talk with friends or family, but hold back—worried about being too much or a burden. Underneath it all, your feelings are asking for space and understanding. Therapy can be a place to finally turn toward that inner experience with support, rather than continuing to carry it alone.

I believe the way to success in therapy is to find a therapist that is a good fit for your needs. Therapy is a relationship. One that works best when open, honest, and collaborative. I am invested in the client as an individual but also as a part of a greater system. I work from a systemic lens and believe deeply that our interactions and habits are greatly influenced by those around us and our previous experiences. My work with clients is done with the consideration of one’s identity, family history culture, and the world around us.
I also provide licensure supervision to pre-licensed therapists in Oregon.

Hello! I am a licensed counselor specialized in working with ADHD, OCD, anxiety and trauma. You may be in transition, questioning something in your life, and you want to understand yourself better. I help clients process and explore their authentic selves, including unpacking patterns of masking—hiding or suppressing who you are—which often contribute to stress, anxiety, and burnout. Using evidence-based approaches including IFS, CBT, and EMDR, I work collaboratively to create a safe space where clients can process experiences, develop coping strategies, build resilience, self-understanding, and meaningful connections.

Do you have to explain yourself to be understood because of your race, your culture, or the assumptions people make about you? You don't have to do that here. At Resonance, we offer relational therapy for BIMPOC, multiracial, and LGBTQ+ clients who are done shrinking and over-explaining.
We understand how oppression, cultural dislocation, and generations of lived experience shape who you are and how you move through the world. Whether you're navigating anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, racial trauma, multiracial identity, grief, or loss, you are not alone.
Reach out, we'd love to connect.

Life can take you on some interesting twists and turns. It's useful to have a skilled co-pilot by your side. It would be an honor for me to be present with you, to listen deeply and support you in knowing yourself more fully and moving towards a more fulfilling life.
My presence is personable, responsive, and playful. I encourage authentic expression, awareness, and embodiment.

I specialize in working with those weighed down by persistent stress. I view "stuck" patterns not as flaws, but as survival strategies that have outlived their usefulness. These can be hard to change especially when you’ve come to believe unhelpful labels, like being lazy, stubborn, or sensitive. I work with people tired of these narratives and wanting change.

We can all react to situations and make things worse rather than better. Where we end up nurturing our anger or hurt or our pain rather than finding a path to repair. At those times we need support to build new paths in our brain and new responses that help us move towards rather than away from healthy or new adaptive patterns.. The change begins with believing in our own self worth, rather than something acquired. This work allows us to develop relational integrity and build human connections that are lasting and healthy. It also helps us face those situations that have overwhelmed our coping and feel intolerable.

Pregnancy and childbirth can be filled with excitement, but it can also be a time of anxiety, stress, sadness, fear, and panic. Maybe something just doesn't feel quite right. Maybe you feel completely overwhelmed. Perhaps you and your partner just can't seem to get on the same page. Anxiety, depression, irritability, and rage during pregnancy and after childbirth can be alarming, but it is not uncommon. The good news is, these are treatable conditions. I understand you want the best for your child and might feel like you aren't able to provide what they need. We can work together to change that.

I have been in practice for 35 years and work with individuals and couples . I have experience with client’s struggling with depression and anxiety, PTSD, work related issues, family trauma as well as life development concerns and goals.

People come to therapy for many reasons. Most often, the primary reason is emotional pain and the desire for change. As humans, we stubbornly cling to patterns of thought and behavior that are not helping us live the lives we most want to live. I am a therapist with over 20 years of experience in mental health. I want to work with you in a collaborative approach to build awareness and skills to create a life that is meaningful to you. I bring to the therapy space active listening, an empathic and compassionate presence, strong clinical skills, and trauma-informed practices.

The path to parenthood isn't always the one you imagined. Maybe you're deep in an IVF cycle, exhausted and emotionally wrung out. Maybe you've experienced a loss — or more than one — and you're trying to figure out how to keep going. Maybe you're pregnant after infertility and surprised to find that hope and fear are living side by side.
Or maybe you're building your family in a way that doesn't fit the standard script, and you want a therapist who gets that without needing it explained.
Whatever your path looks like, you don't have to walk it alone.

My approach begins with where you are feeling overwhelmed. We can feel tethered to the past, unsure about the future and not fully present in the now. I work with adults (18+) who are struggling with their identities within their personal beliefs, their relationships and our adapting environment. I will support you in building your understanding of your sense of self, explore your personal/professional boundaries and how that has impacted your relationships, learn your personal power of communication and work to have you be seen, heard and feeling safe in all areas of your life.

I work with love and its absence. I specialize in sexuality, pregnancy, the body, and analyzing dreams. I often work with those who seek a creative path.

Does this sound familiar? You start talking about something small, like weekend plans or a chore, and somehow it spirals into that same old fight. Before you know it, you're both frustrated, nobody feels heard, and you're wondering how you got here... again. That distance between you keeps growing, and despite loving each other, you can't seem to break the cycle. Whether you're a couple preparing for marriage, navigating midlife challenges, or entering retirement, or an individual seeking clarity during life transitions, you want to move beyond feeling stuck. You're looking for practical tools to create meaningful change.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and honestly pretty weird. Talking to a stranger about the heavy stuff isn't most people's idea of a good time. But you don't have to figure it all out on your own and I'd love to help. I work with teens (12+) and adults who are dealing with worries, stress, low mood, ADHD challenges, and the impacts of past trauma. I also work with couples dealing with disconnection or fights that never seem to get resolved. Therapy can help you find new ways forward with more clarity, connection and hope.

Are you frequently bothered by memories that just won't go away? When you face something new in life, are you afraid you can't handle it? Do you beat yourself up over mistakes that you have made? Do you find it difficult to say No to a request, or to ask for help from others? Do you feel burned out and frustrated with family or work relationships? Many of us have gone the route of self-help books, but these have limited value since they aren't tailored to our individual lives. My work with you is.

We get thrown for loops all the time, some are small and we bounce back, others are bigger and we may need help to navigate them. Many of the folks I see are at the top of one of these bigger loops; maybe you just received a new chronic illness diagnosis or are in chronic pain that is taking you away from what's important to you, maybe your sexuality has shifted and you're struggling to make sense of it, maybe you're ready to unpack a trauma that's taking from your life, maybe you want to make a change with substance use that's not working anymore. The challenges we face can seem insurmountable and you don't have to go it alone!
