Therapists in West Linn, OR

I have 30+ year experience providing therapy for adults and specialize in treating health care professionals. Carl Jung said, "Only the wounded physician heals... and then only to the extent he has healed himself." We become healers because of our wounding. My approach is integrative and aims to get to the root of your suffering, while finding deeper meaning & purpose in your role as a healer and beyond. I use a combination of traditional and non-traditional healing modalities to create real change. I am described by my clients as unapologetically human, which often gives others permission to "take off the mask."

Deep healing is a slow, intentional, & subtle process. In supporting your healing journey, my desire is to see you move from constriction (pain/trauma/symptoms) into expansion (pleasure/liberation/alignment with self). I believe we do this by recognizing the barriers in our lives, finding the ways in which trauma has been stuck & stored within the body, & gently moving through stagnant pain by establishing safety & recalibrating the nervous system together. Therapy is a beautiful co-creative process where we get to support the life you envision; one that honors your most sacred self!

Have you and your partner been sweeping things under the rug? Increased stress, broken trust, and life transitions tend to shine a spotlight on the elements of our relationships we've hoped would go away or tried our best to ignore. It can cause us to act in ways we never thought possible. When our relationship has become the source of distress we often create a negative story of our partner that is difficult to re-write. Once our mind views our partner as a source of hurt and pain, it's hard to see them as anything but potential danger.

Do you struggle with feeling misunderstood or like an outlier among others?

Greetings. I am a clinical psychologist specializing in geropsychology and neuropsychology.

I work with individuals across the lifespan from 16-60+ who are motivated to improve their lives. For many of my clients, they have tried things on their own and made it as far as they could with the tools and skills they had, and when those tools and skills began to fail or began to cause more harm than good, they sought help just like you are right now. Whether you want new coping skills, new perspectives, someone to connect dots that you may not see, or someone outside of your life to listen to you, I encourage you to continue your pursuit of therapy.

I am actively taking new clients. If you are seeking help with trauma, an eating disorder, struggles with food, your body, or anything in between, there are options other than what we have been taught. Our culture and our world often create an environment for people that encourages self denial. A wide variety of traumas often leave people with chronic feelings of fear, trouble with sleep, relationship distress, and dependence on something that might harm them.

I view counseling as an opportunity for growth in personal health and self-discovery during times of transition, change, and unknown certainties. The counseling room is a place of openness with no judgement. I come from a Person Centered Theoretical background, meaning there is unconditional care for every aspect of your experience. I support clients in evaluating their thought processes, the actions that follow, and if that is meeting their needs or not. I also provide Clinical Supervision for associates, and Supervision of Supervision.

Human Nature has adapted, grown and embraced change throughout our history. As an adult, or couple in a relationship, you can explore tools to meet your specific needs. By identifying old triggers and tapes, you can let go of what you have outgrown. Your previous strengths can carry you from who you have been, to who you choose to be. With this old resilience, you can allow change and expand your experiences. You can step forward toward a new vision of you. Choose a "do-over". Learn to accept your changes with self-compassion and a renewed curiosity for self expression. Move from resistance to acceptance to simple joys.

By becoming more aware of the choices available, as well as the means to employ them, you will have an opportunity to learn strategies to more effectively cope with the issues you're facing. Through working together we will find constructive methods to alleviate the pain of the various stressors that affect your life.
