Life's challenges are influenced by more than just our thoughts. Our environments, relationships, life experiences, and access to resources all contribute to the way we view ourselves and the world around us. My approach to counseling recognizes that emotional distress is often connected to situational and environmental factors. These factors contribute to anxiety, stress, self-doubt, trauma responses, and undesirable patterns of thinking. Together, we will work to identify these influences, build practical coping strategies, and create meaningful pathways toward growth and resilience.
My areas of focus include ADHD, anxiety, stress management, emotional regulation, motivation and goal setting, athlete mental performance, career planning, academic stress and burnout, self-esteem, life transitions, resilience building, and personal development. I serve Oregon communities - Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas, Lane, Marion counties and more.
Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply seeking greater balance and fulfillment, I am dedicated to creating a supportive environment where you feel valued, heard, and empowered to move forward with confidence.
