Therapists in Ashland, OR

Currently accepting new clients. We promise to return all calls and emails and if FourEight isn't the right fit for your needs, help you identify a care approach that does, free of charge. We strive to be your partner on the path to wellness!

We are all life students evolving from our collective experience, your experience has led you here. As the art/science of psychotherapy evolves, I promise to provide you with the most effective psychotherapeutic methods available. I bring compassion, humor, focus, years of clinical experience and an exceptional array of treatment tools to our session. Energy psychology (based in physics), is a relatively new, focused approach that often provides a faster, deeper resolution, than "talk therapy" alone offers. Choosing to take this journey means that you will be successful in changing your life experience!

I'm currently accepting new individual clients (not couples) for online sessions 10am–12pm and 2pm–4pm on weekdays. Email is the best way to reach me. Are you feeling distracted and weighed down by anxious and depressing thoughts? Have you experienced traumas that keep you stuck in negative cycles? Perhaps you are struggling with a chronic illness or injury that seems to limit your potential. Or maybe you are bracing against the limitations of the gender binary and want to explore your authentic gender identity and expression? In your hardest moments, you may even face existential or spiritual questions of meaning and purpose.

Have you ever felt like everyone else got the manual on how to live, while you were left figuring things out alone? Perhaps you've spent years navigating a world not designed for you while having to mask as an Autistic person, or compensate for your challenges with ADHD, sensory processing disorder, anxiety, and more. If this resonates with you, I'm here to help.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or stuck? As a stress and anxiety expert, I teach my clients coping and communication skills to increase mental and physical well being, improve relationship satisfaction and create better work/life balance. My mission is my passion: to support clients in their journey to wholeness and authenticity so that they can experience more confidence and joy across every area of life. My style is empathic, empowering and direct, with a good dose of humor :). I am also a Certified Professional Coach, which means I will give you a nudge and hold you accountable when you need it!

I now offer Psilocybin Experiencing and Micro Dosing. Research has shown and I have seen treatment resistant addiction conditions respond rapidly to psilocybin treatment, often in one session! I also provide assistance in dealing with what triggers your cravings, repair of relationships, and healing of traumas that resulted from using or may have contributed to beginning using in the first place. I also work with complicated grief from the loss of a loved one to overdose, suicide, or other traumatic losses. I have over 50 years of personal recovery.

I help adults and youth through challenging times. Together, we will break down unhelpful patterns and old fears in order for you to make meaningful changes and increase your wellness. I tailor my counseling "toolkit" toward your individual values and health goals and I strive to create safety at all times; giving you options and empowering your healing. I especially appreciate accessing depth work with motivated clients to investigate the root causes of unhappiness. As a graduate of the respected counseling program at Lesley University in Cambridge, MA, my foundation is research-driven, while also mind-body and holistically aware.

My specialty is working with folks who have a developmental or intellectual disability (DD) as well as having a dual diagnosis, and those who are close to them. I understand there are many issues confronting you. I would love to help you sort through those issues and find solutions. Sometimes just a few tips can change a situation into something workable for everyone. I am here to listen and provide the guidance you are looking for in making your life better.
