First Choice Health | FCH Therapists in Corvallis, OR

I am NOT currently taking clients right now. Most people are interested in improving their lives in some significant manner when they engage in therapy. Based on your needs and preferences, I offer short-term/solution-focused therapy, as well as longer-term "depth therapy." I focus on clinical assessment and move toward providing strategies and skills for symptom reduction for anxiety or other mood issues, assist you in building on current strengths, and help you find new ways of coping with the changes and challenges life throws at us.

My goal is to help clients discover what works best in their individual situation to feel in control of their lives and "back on track." In many cases this can be accomplished through a solution-oriented counseling approach, with warmth and respect for clients as unique individuals. Clients often examine and make choices regarding new ways of thinking about themselves, others and the world. In addition, I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and eye-movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR) therapy to assist clients with PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, low self-esteem, or an abuse history or trauma.

The heaviness of walking through this life can get to be too much to bear sometimes. Working 40+ hours per week, raising kids, tending to relationships, cooking healthy foods, making sure you get enough exercise, etc., etc. It's a lot. It's easy for things to get off track. To feel exhausted down to your very bones. And when it is time to rest, it's hard to shut off the spinning thoughts about the future, money, climate change, health issues, past wounds....you name it.
