Personality Disorders Therapists in Eugene, OR

It’s time to PAUSE, HEAL, and LIVE. We may find ourselves just existing or wrestling through our day, instead of really living. We may question what is our worth, or if we are living an authentic life. Allow me to share the journey of your discovery towards finding purpose and meaning. I am a passionate, grateful, compassionate, flawed, human being, seeking to contribute to the growth and wellness of any who desire to journey this thing we call life. My aim is to help you meet your goals and needs, and discover hidden strengths and values that makes life worth living by using strategies grounded in best practices and evidence-based.

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! I believe that everyone is capable of healthy change to achieve their maximum potential and reach a deep satisfaction with life. I value depth and spirituality, identifying as a follower of Jesus. This drives me to show compassion, openness, and hope to all people in a nonjudgmental environment, recognizing that every person is a human being who deserves to live a life they find worth living. My desire is to create a space where people can feel comfortable and safe to be their authentic selves as they engage in the process of delving into the human within.

It goes without saying these past few years have been an uphill battle. With the stress of a pandemic, the economic hardships facing many, and political divides deepening: it's no wonder anxiety is high. Or depression feels magnified. Or you find yourself falling back into bad habits.  But you don't have to struggle through this time alone. Empathic Counseling can help you cope during this difficult time and empower you to thrive. I work closely with clients across Oregon to help them find freedom from Anxiety, Depression, Addiction, Trauma, or that harsh voice inside you that tells you you're not enough.

It is crucial that our work be centered in your values, beliefs, background, and culture(s). We cannot fully envision where we would like to go without solidly acknowledging where we come from, and there is no homogenized way to do this. I see social justice and mental health as inextricable, and my work as a therapist is and will always be rooted in the values of accessibility and equal opportunity. I am a part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and am happy to support trans folx with gender affirming care. The best way to reach out is through email.

We are a team of 60 counselors who are accepting new patients and have a team of administrators coordinating services to get you seen quickly. --Life isn't easy or often how we hoped it to be-- We have all faced obstacles at some point in our lives and will continue to do so because of events often outside of our control. There are many circumstances that can overwhelm: Depression; Anxiety; Anger; Grief/Loss; Violence; Bullying; Trauma; Work; Family life; Divorce; Behavioral issues; Worry; School; this list is endless. Whether they are past, present or future, sometimes it is nice to have someone to support you.

You’re at war with your inner critic! It’s a constant battle to affirm your worth and value, asserting that you do matter. Sometimes you can see clearly, but sometimes you're convinced that the problem must be you. Falling down the familiar spiral of negativity and shame, caught up in the story of what a mess you are, steeped in the suffering. There has to be a better way. You're putting up a worthy fight in this epic struggle, but you have to admit you're losing. The self-doubt and internal criticism can border on self-hate, and it feels like you're flailing. You desperately need someone to help guide you out of this battlefield.

Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Oregon and have been practicing since 2019. Prior to this, I earned my certification as an Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC I) in 2014 while working with unhoused folks in a shelter in Corvallis setting providing wrap-around services to mandated and self-referred clients in addictions and domestic violence intervention. I grew up in Oakland CA, and for those who have never been, social justice and social welfare are constantly relevant topics in education and in passing

I work with a wide range of people who are experiencing difficulties with various aspects of their lives, including emotional struggles (extreme moods, sadness and grief, discouragement, anxiety), relationship problems (with partners, relatives, friends, society at large), difficulties letting go of negative past experiences or patterns, and difficulties identifying or realizing desires for the future. By providing an open space in which they can speak freely, and by encouraging and sustaining their search for their own truth and desires, I work with them to facilitate the discovery of solutions and amelioration of suffering.

However you are feeling at this moment, you have deep, natural sources of resilience inside you. My job as a therapist is to help you tap into the resources of your mind, body, and spirit, so that you can take charge of your own healing and growth. Often, the feelings, thoughts, and behaviors causing us the most difficulty right now have their roots in old coping strategies that once helped us to survive and care for ourselves. If you are struggling or stuck now, it may be because you are ready to let go of these old patterns and find new ways of being.

My specialties include helping people who are going through extreme and disorienting experiences, whether prompted externally through their relationships and life circumstances, or through the action of powerful inner forces. I also work well with those who wish to explore and transform the origins of their long-standing emotional blockages. More generally, I work with people from highly traumatized backgrounds, including diffuse and difficult to name traumas such as enmeshment and emotional neglect. Those who believe they may be experiencing spiritual emergency or dissociative symptoms are especially encouraged to get in touch.

Currently Accepting New Clients! My role as your therapist to provide a safe and comfortable environment where your views are heard, respected, and upheld as valuable and important. My approach is to stand by your side and meet you wherever you are on your healing journey. I focus on building a strong therapeutic alliance, as I recognize how difficult it is to be vulnerable with a new person and how important it is to feel connected with your therapist. Together, we will learn coping skills, process past or present trauma, and explore strategies that will assist you in reaching your goals.

I am so excited to offer both counseling and clinical supervision services within my practice. I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist. I have worked extensively in community behavioral health settings and have a wealth of experience to share with licensee's. I believe that people are resilient and that being alongside a person through their own individual journey is a sacred honor. I work with clients to strengthen and foster healing, growth, health and wellness. My theoretical framework is person centered and I tailor my interventions to the individual client.

I understand that people can sometimes struggle or feel anxious about some area in their life. Most people want to feel meaning in their life, but when stress, sadness, or anxiety gets in the way it can feel horrible. Not knowing how or what to change can feel overwhelming.

I am acutely aware of how many people are suffering deeply now – people who are strong, intelligent, and creative, and yet find themselves struggling within their lives and disbelieving in themselves. Many of our psychological and emotional problems have been worsened over time by systemic and political practices, policies and institutions which also affect us spiritually. Because these systems aren’t self-aware, they don’t change quickly, and since they are part of the cause of our problems, they can’t help us heal. I listen to understand how to heal.

I have been an LMFT since 1993. During that time I've had both education and experience with many of the issues we encounter as we pass through our lives.

I also have training and experience working with clients with sexual concerns and Active Duty Military, families and Veterans. I am currently accepting telephonic and video clients in Oregon.
