Couples Counseling Therapists in Beaverton, OR

Since no two people are the same, no treatment should look the same. I believe in individualizing the counseling experience to the client and their unique needs. Thus, I practice with a trans-theoretical model or across theories. I take into account your readiness for change, your strengths, and your developmental level to create a working relationship that allows for growth and resilience building. Some approaches I have utilized in the past include Wellness Based Counseling, EcoWellness/ EcoTherapy, Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy.

I am a marriage and family therapist who is focused on how a person interacts with those in their family and community groups. I believe that all people are inter-connected and problems are healed through connection with one's self and others. I like to explore how emotional injuries impact the client and their current issue. I like working to help clients heal and empower them to increase their attachment and emotional bonds for overall increased functioning and life satisfaction.

If a relationship has reached a crisis point, you may be searching for some guidance to turn it around. I enjoy helping couples and families understand each other better and deepen communication. As an individual, do you wonder why you feel stuck in the same endless loop of reactions? Do you find yourself triggered by certain situations you would like to get past? Do you believe that you are not living up to potential you know you have? Do you struggle with addiction? I may be able to help you reclaim your best self and project it out to other people. You can learn new ways to deal with situations

I am currently meeting with clients virtually and in-person at a location near downtown Beaverton. When therapy is conducted in a warm and non-judgmental environment, and an individual, couple, or a family feels safe and understood, it can be incredibly powerful in providing healing and growth from life's difficult past experiences as well as current challenges. As a strengths-based and client-centered LMFT, I work to create a safe place where a client's existing internal strengths are explored and they are able to create goals that build towards healing, growth, awareness, and positive change.

Hearts and life can become complex, and I believe your heart can be set free from all that holds it back and causes it to stumble. I am convinced that your heart is unique and exquisitely beautiful. You have a great destiny and it would be my privilege to help discover what it is. Sound too good to be true? Does your heart feel in pain? Have you been numbing that pain, exploding with anger when you wish you would “hold it in,” or isolating from relationships? Your heart has its reasons for feeling the way it does. Let's begin either in person or via phone or video. I work with couples and individuals.

You are always on the lookout for the “real” you. No matter where you go, you just feel like something is missing from the picture. You are a teen, and you feel lost going forward, clash with friends, or just feel lonely. Or you are an adult, and you struggle to give it your all. As a person in a relationship, you can’t figure out how things got the way they are. It feels like you are living someone else’s life. You hear about people being “present”, but you can’t figure out what they mean.
