You’re doing your best given your circumstances, awareness, & resources. Growth, and a fulfilling, meaningful life is possible when the conditions work for your unique needs. If you have ADHD/Autism, relationship, medical, or identity issues, anxiety, depression, or trauma, you may want your life back- or to feel "normal” for once. From the heavy depths of despair to the bubbly heights of playfulness, what makes life absurd, beautiful, & tragic will be acknowledged, not ignored. “Weird” celebrated, not shamed. I’ll help you embrace the unknown, adapt to change, & move forward.

I believe that recovery is a process which requires active, continuous involvement from the client, the therapist, and the entire treatment team. According to this belief, the four stages of recovery are hope, empowerment, self-responsibility, and establishing a meaningful role in life. The individual most responsible for a successful treatment outcome is you (the client). With your consistent effort and willingness to engage with your therapist the kind of change you are hoping for can and will occur.

Tengo muchos años trabajando en español y me siento muy conectada con gente de la comunidad Latina. Todos necesitamos alguien que nos comprendan, valoren y apoyen. Yo pienso que cada persona tiene la capacidad para recuperarse de experiencias y situaciones difíciles. My philosophy of therapy includes helping you appreciate the inner wisdom, resiliency, courage and strengths that you already have. I have the hope of a better life for you enjoying a fulfilling, joyous and satisfying life until you can envision that reality for yourself.

As we all go through life trying our best to stay afloat and happy, sometimes asking for help can seem like the hardest thing to do. I believe that people have within themselves the ability and strength to enact meaningful change in their lives. By working in a collaborative manner with a client-led and person-centered approach, finding motivation and unearthing hidden strengths can lead to positive change and new outlook on life. By utilizing new coping skills and building a therapeutic alliance, we can work other to overcome those previously insurmountable waves of life. My Practice is Taking New Patients for Psychiatric Care!

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. Couples, individuals and teens are the majority of my practice. We work on relationship problems, divorce and co-parenting, anxiety and depression and parent-child problems. 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. Telehealth has been extensively researched and found to have similar positive results as face-to-face.
