Stress Therapists in Portland, OR
I provide focused, time-limited psychotherapy (up to 12 sessions) for individuals who are stuck and who want to make changes in their lives. This approach allows clients to make real and impactful changes over a relatively short period of time. My work is about shifting trajectories. Working together we can shift the trajectory of your life so that it’s oriented around what is most important, most meaningful to you. I utilize empirically supported treatments, particularly Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and my work is guided by what research has shown to be most effective.

Often times when we experience distressing events, trauma or abuse in our relationships (growing up and in adulthood) we can begin to feel isolated and misunderstood. Reactions to 'day in the life' events can feel overwhelming and even debilitating. I believe individuals have the potential to change and ultimately are striving toward emotional, mental, physical and social satisfaction. I can support and guide you safely in achieving your goals by examining the connection between your behaviors, thoughts, body sensations and feelings, moving toward a more flexible, less rigid state of mental health.

Relational Therapy for Individuals and Couples- Restoring balance for deeper intimacy and increasing the potential for stable and secure relationships.
We are born into relationships and throughout life we are embedded in environments that shape who we become, this means we develop ourselves in relation to others. Often patterns of relating cause us to turn away from people that are important to us, creating conflict, unfulfilled experience, and negative feelings. Because behavior is learned, change is possible.

Leadership Skills, Performance Enhancement and Life Coaching. I am confident in the ability of the individual to change. We all face many difficult challenges in life, but these can become opportunities for growth and personal development. Most of us have never really learned the optimal skills and strategies to deal with these challenges. After 30 years working with individuals from a great variety of economic, educational and cultural backgrounds, I have found that identifying and letting go of our old, unproductive coping strategies, and replacing them with new ways of engaging with the world, allows us to live in a more rewarding and productive fashion.
