Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Sellwood-Moreland, Portland, OR

As a therapist who has been in practice for 9 years, I have a wealth of both experience and knowledge. I draw on my clinical experience to help my clients learn the skills to enhance their quality of life, break old patterns, and accept themselves in order to move past unprocessed shame and live in the present moment. I am effective at getting to the heart of the issue with my clients and in using evidence-based practices to provide structured, concrete skill building, as well as to create a validating environment. I would describe my therapeutic style as compassionate, understanding and efficient.

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence based treatment designed to work with individuals and families affected by all specialties and issues listed on my page. Treating challenges like anxiety, depression and OCD, requires a collaborative and supportive process tailored to each individual. With the right treatment it is possible to see significant changes in symptoms so you can spend more time pursing what is most important to you. I offer telehealth based appointments within the states of Oregon, Vermont, and New Hampshire and offer in-person appointments within the Portland, OR area.

Welcome! I am here to support your growth, exploration, and healing. I love this work! I'm passionate about building therapeutic relationships rooted in humor, warmth, and non-judgement. I know finding the right therapist can be overwhelming, so please let me know if you have any questions.

Therapy is different for everyone but across the board I offer a compassionate and collaborative experience; together we will diligently work toward your own specific goals, needs, and healing. Most of my clients are looking to improve the health of their relationships, learn how to properly set boundaries, address a trauma history that is negatively affecting their daily life, or more generally address symptoms of anxiety and depression as a whole.

I ground my work in respect and compassion which contributes to the foundation of trust, self-acceptance and courage necessary for you to successfully overcome your challenges and create the life you want to live. Through the cultivation of mindful awareness and the implementation of stress management and emotion regulation skills, I will teach you how to calm anxiety, transform distressing feelings, access inner wisdom and review your behaviors and beliefs so that you can learn to commit to those which align with your values. This work will help you realize your personal, professional and relationship goals.
