Are you overwhelmed with Worry, Sadness, Uncertainty? Do you feel stuck in self-defeating patterns? How would your life or relationships be different after Therapy? There can be effective ways to manage and gain better understanding of the issues, feelings and questions facing you. The first step is getting your support, your safety net... someone who sees you and hears you and understands that your pain is real. Together we can identify issues, enhance your coping skills, develop strategies for depression, anxiety, trauma or relationship troubles.

We all desire meaningful, close relationships to bring happiness in our lives. Developing a trusting and supportive therapy relationship can be an important start getting there. Feeling connected in relationships is an essential aspect of our emotional well-being. My passion over the past 29 years, is helping clients develop relational mindfulness through exploring thoughts, feelings, past traumas, and early attachment patterns. My work is attachment-informed, IFS informed, and emotionally focused. Together, we'll explore how to build greater self-compassion, acceptance, and strong emotional awareness.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 26 years of experience. I provide couples, Individual, and Family Therapy. My modalities include EMDR, CBT, DBT, Hakomi, and PACT Level 3 for couples therapy. I am considered a Trauma expert and provide trauma-informed treatments. Many of my clients struggle with PTSD, depression, anxiety, addictions, chronic pain, medical trauma and relationship issues. My approach is collaborative, preventative, educational and inclusive.

I work with individuals, couples, and families in a dynamic, related, and grounded style. My work is about supporting my clients in learning how to relieve their own suffering, relate to others more effectively and efficiently, and living the life they want to live. Much of this work is around transitions in life: puberty, education, individuation, relationships, work, self-identification, and grief. My work with couples and families is grounded in the Psychobilogical Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) and I am a Level II certified PACT therapist. I work with adolescents, adults, all genders, races, sexual orientations, and spiritual beliefs.

With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I have found psychotherapy to be a powerful means to create lasting and meaningful change in lives.

I am now in two offices, seeing Clients in Oregon and Colorado.

Deep down you feel unworthy and unloved, often seeking external validation or busying yourself to distract from truly dealing with the root of your issues. You may be challenged by quiet moments with your thoughts before swirling into negative self-talk, anxiety, overwhelm, or shutdown. You desire to be more in control of your emotions but whenever you attempt to "figure things out" the spiraling and over-analyzing begin again, getting you stuck. On the outside you function just fine, but internally you are your harshest critic and believe you are a flawed human. Sometimes we need the guidance of another to remind us of our magic.

I offer a collaborative approach that combines humanist and post-modern ideals with narrative therapy. We will explore your personal narratives, challenge limiting beliefs, and work towards growth and freedom. I welcome clients of all backgrounds, genders, and ages, especially older adults and those with chronic pain. If you are looking for a safe and supportive space to strengthen your relationships, overcome limitations, or embrace personal growth, I invite you to schedule a consultation. Let's co-create a new narrative that empowers you and your relationships.
