Philosophy and Culture of our practice: TPA Oregon
We believe that psychotherapy should be centered on YOU - values, beliefs, relationships, worldview. This is refreshing in our times, where therapy often seems centered on particular cultural views instead.
With over fifteen years of experience in private practice, program management, and supervision with metro area agencies, as well as rural county programs, I lead our small group practice. My passion for supporting growth and transformation centers on my clients as well as staff in our practice.

Life is exhausting when dealing with emotional pain! Individual pain takes many forms, such as anxious thoughts, the sadness of depression, loneliness due to grief, or the fear from past traumas. Unintentionally, couples hurt their partners. Communication challenges can cause feelings of weariness, loneliness, and resentment. Emotional wounds from an infidelity can cause loss of appetite or sleep. I provide healing help, no matter what is causing distress. Let’s take the journey together, so you can again find enjoyment and peace. My mission is to help you build the life and relationship you desire!

Life can be challenging. At times it can be filled with obstacles that seem insurmountable. Anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, work, low self-esteem and trauma can make one’s life even more difficult to navigate. Learning skills to help you through these challenges can be key to helping you overcome them. I work individually with middle school aged children through adults, including those within the military community. I also work with couples, partners, families and groups. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and relationship challenges.

If life came with an instruction manual, you might be wondering why you are missing a few pages. Too many “shoulds,” too little time for what actually matters, and somehow you’re still expected to keep it all together and fill a gratitude journal. Therapy is a place to pause, take a breath, and start piecing it back together—messy, honest, and human.
In our work together, I will never pretend to be an expert on your life and experience. What you will find is curiosity, honesty, and compassion. Together, we’ll explore patterns in your life and relationships, and make room for more authenticity, joy, and connection.

I enjoy working with clients struggling with feelings of disconnection from their lives, values, and goals using true connection, warmth, and authenticity as a foundation for change. My clients value me as an attentive listener, but I do not shy away from non-judgmental reflection on patterns that may be misaligned with their goals. I can address trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions using a variety of tools tailored to each person's need. I work with older teens and adults, and I have experience working with folks of diverse sexualities, gender, cultural backgrounds, body sizes, and non-monogamy.

Humor. You may feel stuck, uncertain or nervous about your life right now. While I take this very serious I find that people enjoy being able to talk to a "real" person. From what I hear I'm "real" largely because of my sense of humor. The goal is not to have fun but to find your healthy self. I just believe that being a good clinician doesn't mean you have to be "clinical". Sometimes laughter is the best medicine, or if nothing else, a great vehicle! Let's roll up our sleeves and move forward toward getting better.

Kids learn and communicate through play, and I’ve seen how powerful it can be in supporting growth, emotional expression, and healing. Using a child-centered approach, I follow each child or teen’s lead, honoring their unique personality, interests, and pace. Through play and following their lead, I create a safe, supportive space where young people can explore and process difficult emotions.
I work collaboratively with clients and their parents or caregivers, recognizing their vital role as co-regulators in a child’s emotional development. I offer guidance and support to help strengthen these relationships beyond the therapy room.

Hi, I’m Sarina. I support kids, teens, and adults who are overwhelmed by big feelings or busy lives to feel more grounded, joyful, and connected to themselves by offering warm, trauma-informed therapy that blends creativity, mindfulness, and a little bit of nature-based magic.
I work with children (5+), adolescents and adults who often feel like they have to be “on” all the time — high-achievers, perfectionists, deep feelers, and those whose bodies have carried too much through chronic illness or medical trauma. If you're feeling anxious, stuck, burnt out, or just plain tired, therapy can be a place to breathe, reflect, and reset.
