Therapists in Bend, OR

Could you be making better decisions? Tired of arguing with your partner? Would you like to learn to regulate your emotions? I help empower children, couples, families and individuals with a solution oriented and mindful approach while improving relationships with self and others. We can acknowledge hurts, break old patterns, learn new communication and coping skills, heal and achieve optimum well being. Charting a course to achieve the best version of yourself. I also work with athletes to increase personal strengths and confidence while leading them to a lifetime of balanced mind body to achieve their athletic + personal goals.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist committed to helping individuals and families navigate difficult life experiences and to lead happier, healthier lives. My work focuses on assisting adolescents, college students, young adults, adults, and families. Who experience mental health concerns, difficulty with substance abuse, and issues stemming from personal or intergenerational trauma.

I believe that within each of us is a heart longing for purpose, meaning, value, and direction. I believe that we all desire to pursue our hopes and dreams but may get lost along the way. Good or bad we are impacted by our environment, family, schools, and life choices, but it does not have to end there.

I specialize in working people who are in search of their authentic self. They often have too much on their to-do list and feel a lot of stress. There is a sense that life isn't quite what they want it to be or that they are over committed to things that just aren't giving back or are not fulfilling. Most of the people I work with are highly intelligent emotionally, intellectually or both and might struggle to find where to best put their efforts.
