Therapists in Oregon

I've specialized in helping folks through tough times for over two decades. Through a warm, down-to-earth, collaborative approach I'll partner with you to achieve your goals and find inner peace. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a focus on mindfulness and your unique strengths, I can help you understand and modify your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. My areas of expertise include managing anxiety, reducing stress around relationships, family, work and life transitions, improving self esteem, setting boundaries, living with infertility and childlessness, adults with ADHD and living with neurodiverse children and partners.

I ground my work in respect and compassion which contributes to the foundation of trust, self-acceptance and courage necessary for you to successfully overcome your challenges and create the life you want to live. Through the cultivation of mindful awareness and the implementation of stress management and emotion regulation skills, I will teach you how to calm anxiety, transform distressing feelings, access inner wisdom and review your behaviors and beliefs so that you can learn to commit to those which align with your values. This work will help you realize your personal, professional and relationship goals.

My top priority is that you feel welcomed to show up as you are without fear of judgment. Through gentle honesty, compassionate accountability, and transparent collaboration, I try to create the conditions for a genuine connection because I believe that a trusting relationship is the most valuable part of therapy. Working with challenges like trauma recovery, neurodivergence, anxiety, depression, and more, my work is guided by a creative, flexible, and warm approach to therapy.

Are anxiety and low self-worth regulars in your life? The process of recognizing old stories, beliefs, and patterns can be overwhelming. It can bring up confusion, fear and grief. Changing old ways, that once kept you safe, can feel ungrounding and chaotic. Shifting what you've been familiar and comfortable with is deeply challenging and takes a great deal of strength and vulnerability. I believe healing, growth and change are lifelong practices, and transformation requires time, space, patience and self-compassion. Therapy can offer a safe and caring relationship that supports you in doing this life changing work.

By introduction I am a proponent of using life as the best teacher. For over thirty years I have learned through many personal experiences with family mental illness and crisis that telling our stories is crucial to healing. Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) is my chosen counseling approach that aids you as the client to discover solutions in your journey of therapy. Collaboratively my goal is to be a guide in your personal work to healing. I aspire to include Mindfulness techniques and integrating various interventions best suited to the individual to create a safe haven for positive change and growth.

I am passionate about helping people change by finding deeper joy in their lives. If you seek healing, growth, a process through conflict or shifting painful patterns, if you desire to pursue wellness, spiritual connection and mind body integration, if you are curious about recovery work, creating beauty, the Enneagram, an INFP, or unique in more than one way, then I look forward to hearing from you. You want support from a therapist that’s creative in their process and flexible in approach, committed to helping develop the skills to cultivate love, purpose and deep joy in life.

As we begin to move on from the after-effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; financial, social/political tensions, anxiety about health concerns, the lack of social contact, etc., life can get overwhelming. These issues bring deep impacts on our emotional well being. Have you been through a recent life change and need help adjusting? Have you been experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, irritability and stress? Do you need orientation and effective skills in parenting, your interpersonal relationships, communication, assertiveness or mindfulness? Are you dealing with a chronic illness?

As your individual therapist, I partner with you as you work through the challenges that may be impacting your life such as trauma, anxiety, stress, depression, family conflict, cultural/ethnic identity and stage of life issues. Together we will explore all aspects of wellness and work through the things that are getting in the way of you building the life you want.

I earned my Master's degree from a holistically oriented clinical mental health counseling program at Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts - one of the most comprehensive programs of its kind. Since earning my degree I have provided counseling across a variety of settings including non-profit and for-profit organizations, government agencies, hospitals, employee assistance and now in private practice. Locally here in the Rogue Valley I have worked for both Asante and Jackson County Mental Health. At the latter location I trained the RN staff in counseling skills and fellow counselors in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Currently not accepting new clients. Have you found yourself saying, "I've got to stop doing this", only to do it again? Do you feel stuck, unmotivated, sad, anxious, or are you plagued by painful emotions/memories? I've worked with hundreds of people who have struggled with similar concerns. Working together we've found ways to get unstuck and onto a path of increased self-esteem and happiness. Whether the issue is putting unhealthy food or substances into your body, managing emotions, or not effectively communicating, I'm here to help you identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck and gain control.

As a therapist informed by resilience and trauma, I support individuals, couples, and families coping with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions with a client-centered approach. I believe in our potential to be better versions of ourselves and strive towards our ideal self. Together, we'll develop a meaningful and effective treatment plan to help you address unresolved issues and achieve happiness. My aim is to help you live the life you desire by enabling your transformation and fulfillment. It is my honor to join other humans on their journey to achieve wellbeing and identify their ideal self.

I am a white, bisexual, non-binary, non-monogamous, and neuroqueer therapist working at the intersections of oppression, grief, trauma, liberation, and pleasure. I strive to create an environment where all parts of you are welcome. I serve individuals needing support to better survive and thrive while living in a world full of trauma. Together we can co-create a brave and curious space for you to ground into what matters most to you. I work to hold a space that centers your dignity and wholeness, inviting in the wisdom of your body, your mind, your life story, the earth, your ancestry, and your cultures of origin.

I once saw the term "Survival of the Attached"- indeed, no person is an island, we all live in realtionship to others and our partner/spouse/co-parent can be the one person who is most upsetting to us and the one we can experience the deepest healing with. You deserve a secure, thriving, joyful relationship, one were you know exactly how to care for each other! I welcome folks from all walks of life and social locations. I specialize in transnationals: expats, mixed- citizenship status couples/families, "home" seekers, and those straddling many cultures.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and a licensed school psychologist. I hold a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Long Island University in Brooklyn, NY. Urban and rural, inpatient and outpatient work settings have taught me about the many challenges an individual may face including experiences of oppression and injustice, as well as a deep appreciation for the richness of the human experience. My style is described as warm, analytical and collaborative, balancing deep emotional work with elements of humor and lightness when appropriate. I aim to help clients address the root of complex challenges, in a safe and supported way.

It is a great honor to travel alongside a person who has decided to embark upon a path of discovery, whether wanting to understand issues regarding relationships, what drives reactions, achieving growth and healing, coping with grief & loss, or the aging process. I believe that we are all capable of transforming old beliefs into new freedoms, and of moving beyond the patterns we have developed in the past as a response to our surroundings. If we choose to work together, I am committed to working collaboratively with you to help you achieve your goals.

My favorite thing to do is support people. Being human can feel difficult and confusing at times. Communication can feel even trickier. I support my clients with lovingkindness and unlimited compassion. I am vibrant and down-to-earth. I definitely want all of my clients to feel safe, heard, and grounded. I specialize in transitions, anxiety, depression, sex, couples, parenting, divorce, insecurities, etc. I have a special place in my heart for the perinatal community. I have been working with new families for almost 20 years.

As a therapist with 40 years of experience, I've helped hundreds of people overcome their challenges. Whether it's anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, difficulty finding the right life partner, or loss and grief resulting from a separation or death, I have the counseling skills and experience to help you solve your problems. You don't have to feel stressed from repeating old patterns that no longer work. Counseling with me can bring more joy and fulfillment into your life. I'm also specialized in and love working with couples. In addition I am trained in EMDR, a protocol for resolving trauma.

I am a licensed provider with over 22 years of experience. I provide in-person and telehealth with individuals and couples of all ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientations, ranging in age from 18 - 65+. My philosophy stems from a belief that life is an ever-changing process that provides the opportunities for individuals to develop into their own person; however, due to trauma or other painful or problematic issues, we may become stuck. My approach is warm, interactive, collaborative, and individualized drawing on different therapeutic models which may include mindfulness, psychodynamic, EFT, CBT, DBT, and EMDR approaches.
