I hold 20 years of experience where I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of people and fields such as, Human/ Sex Trafficking, Domestic Violence, Childhood Sexual Trauma, Sex Addiction, Veterans, Female Injustices, Cultural Injustices, and ages; ranging from 4-90.
I utilize a specialty modality single target focused model. What this means is that you will have weekly sessions for 8 weeks that focus on a single target to process. Sometimes, it can feel overwhelming & as though progress is not being made when we try to process through multiple aspects of life, events, feelings, & thoughts at once. Instead, I like to focus on a single target (aspect of life, event, feeling, thought) for 8 weeks utilizing a specialty modality (EMDR, Biofeedback, Vagus nerve, etc.) & give that single target focus all of our attention, time, energy & emotion for 8 weeks, before we move on to the next single target.

Are you ready to begin taking off the masks that you are afraid of living without but know you cannot live within? Together, we will gently remove old and new masks, allowing for the opportunity to get to know your inner Self. The Self is our inner being, our truth, our soul, our anchor, who often gets hidden away due to traumatic experiences, fears, and others’ expectations. Through witnessing how personal challenges - past and present - can impact individuals in distinct ways, I have grown increasingly passionate about helping others reconnect with life through Self-discovery.

I believe that engaging in therapy is a radically courageous act. Exploring and sharing our stories can be terrifying, and doing so may go against the messages you internalized and survival strategies you adopted. Regardless of what brings you in, therapy can help you feel more fulfilled and more richly connected with yourself and others. I know that living in this time and culture can be confusing, painful, and isolating, and believe everyone deserves a space to make sense of it all, to be deeply seen and heard, and to be supported in cultivating a more meaningful and joyful life.

We live in a fast-paced society that values productivity above all else, and it’s easy to lose focus on finding joy in the little things, and fostering relationships that bring us peace. I look at therapy as a chance to slow down and focus on connection, whether that be your connection to pleasure, to your partner(s), or to yourself. Perhaps you find yourself stuck in the same fight with your partner again and again and can’t seem to fix it. Maybe you sometimes feel like you are speaking different languages, and you just can’t find the right words to help them. Maybe trust has been breached and you can't see a way through it.

I enjoy working with motivated individuals who want to see change. I work with both individuals and couples/Poly/CNM who are navigating challenges in their lives or their relationships. Maybe you've found yourself feeling disconnected from your partner(s) or having the same fight over and over again. Or maybe you feel like something isn't working in your life but you just can't put your finger on it. I love helping clients explore where they're stuck and collaborate with them to find creative solutions.

I once saw the term "Survival of the Attached"- indeed, no person is an island, we all live in realtionship to others and our partner/spouse/co-parent can be the one person who is most upsetting to us and the one we can experience the deepest healing with. You deserve a secure, thriving, joyful relationship, one were you know exactly how to care for each other! I welcome folks from all walks of life and social locations. I specialize in transnationals: expats, mixed- citizenship status couples/families, "home" seekers, and those straddling many cultures.

You’re ready to actually do the work—not just talk about it. You’re craving a space where you can be held with compassion and lovingly called out when you’re getting in your own way. You’re not here for sugarcoating or surface-level validation—you want someone who sees through your polished self-narrative and helps you rewrite it, honestly.
My people? First-time-in-therapy men brave enough to take the leap. BIPOC clients who want someone who just gets it. Queer folks looking for a therapist who doesn’t need the basics explained. Couples who are tired of the same fights and ready to unpack the real stuff underneath.

Many of us didn't get the love, support, or connection that we deserved from our families or communities growing up. Because we're resilient, we developed creative strategies for getting our needs met (ex. people-pleasing, perfectionism, numbing-out, overanalyzing, rebelling, etc.). And these strategies worked for a while! They helped us get through complicated childhoods. But as we get older, many of us begin to notice a toll on our minds, our bodies, and our relationships.

I’m a compassionate believer in the power of individual stories. As a professional counselor intern based in Oregon, I provide a non-judgmental space where individuals can openly share their experiences and work collaboratively towards shaping their present circumstances and future aspirations.

You are not alone. Rather than being an obstacle, our bodies and our sensual nature can be integral to personal and spiritual liberation. My work is grounded, respectful and authentic. In confidential, online sessions, men gain mastery of how to generate, contain and transform sexual energy and cultivate deep presence. Women remember how to heal and reclaim their sexual power and become radiant in their ability to be love. Profound levels of respect and joy emerge within couples. As a result, we learn to relax deeply and access our life potential in a profound and powerful way.

I believe in every person's innate nature to heal. We all have a hungry heart to be happy, to be connected to others, and openly love those in our life. But sometimes we struggle to see how and need a little help.
