All clients come with a unique set of goals and ideas of what they want to get from therapy. All clients are ideal because they are unique. They have the goals, the wants, the issues to be resolved and the drive to do that. The clients want to have a sense of power and peace in their lives, they need a little help to get there.

All of us face experiences in our lives where we can benefit from the support and connection that therapy provides. Scientific evidence demonstrates that a strong and consistent therapeutic relationship is restorative, healing and emotionally regulating. As a therapist, I believe in connecting with clients, human-to-human, and I regularly feel a deep sense of understanding for those with whom I work. There is so much noise around us that it is often difficult for us to hear our own truth. I offer a compassionate, heart-centered space to help you to deeply trust your own inner strength and core values.

Hypnosis puts you in touch with your inner resources, allowing you to bring more of what you want into your life. Hypnosis is safe and gentle. It is the fastest and most effective way to make positive changes in your life; either physical, emotional or spiritual. Hypnosis has been scientifically proven to enhance your immune system, reduce tension and stress, lower your blood pressure, improve your entire circulatory system, improve focus and concentration, elevate your feelings of self-esteem, and release you from addictive behaviors. I have been practicing hypnosis and guided imagery in Eugene, OR for 30 years.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or shame? Do you feel like something is off, but you can't quite put your finger on it? Are you ready for change, but not sure how to approach it? In our lives we can come to a point where things feel bleak and we are unsure change can happen. During those times we can feel alone and as though we have to figure things out by ourselves. These struggles can be a heavy weight that no one should carry on their own.

As a transpersonal counselor, it is my goal in working with women to approach and integrate their highest human potential. Inside each of us is our highest self, and together my clients and I work toward what is their own, unique potential. I find that holding the space for my clients to reach a place where they believe in themselves, encourages them to step into those experiences that may be holding them back. Together we walk through fear, anger, sadness, shame, guilt, or grief. Whatever feeling, emotion, or problem that brought them to me together on the other side we find the potential that was hidden inside.

Many of my clients would agree that what they look for in a counselor is someone who "has been there themselves." They look for someone that has the education and experience to successfully assist them. I have that combination of personal experiences and educational background. My goal is to help you feel better, cope with life, and get on the path to a more happy and productive life. I will teach you to identify, solve, and cope with problems. I am Psychedelic's friendly.

Silver Lining Recovery Counseling
Drug & Alcohol Counselor, CADCI

Anxiety and Depression can be side-effects of a substance abuse issue. Seeking help and admitting we have an addiction takes an act of extreme bravery and courage. Our society tells us if we are overcome by addiction, that we are weak willed and have character defects. However, I don't believe that. I believe every person is born with unique gifts that are innate to them, but are veiled when we are chasing our addiction. Together, through meditation, guided imagery and self-discovery we will quickly chart a course of recovery from whatever has got you hooked (food, drugs, alcohol, smoking, technology, etc)

Alcohol Use Therapists
Are there specific medications for alcohol use?
There are oral medications approved to treat alcohol use disorder—such as disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone, which also comes in an injectable form. These medications do help people reduce their drinking as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone helps reduce cravings, disulfiram can make a person feel sick when they drink, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
How do alcohol recovery or rehabilitation programs work?
In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other patients in recovery; in outpatient programs,individuals live at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff can also include people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other tools for recovery.
How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.
How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for alcohol use reduce the amount of alcohol they intake. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
