Now accepting clients in Oregon and ID for HIPAA-secure in-person therapy and telehealth options. I work with individuals seeking greater fulfillment, emotional balance, deeper connection, and a stronger sense of purpose in their lives. Together, we explore how thoughts, emotions, and life experiences shape patterns such as anxiety, depression, grief, fear, low self-esteem, emotional disconnection, and overwhelm—and how these experiences impact the body as well as the mind. My approach is compassionate, insight-driven, and focused on helping you build awareness, healing, and meaningful change: Respectful always and challenging.

You may notice yourself reacting in ways that don’t reflect who you truly are—repeating patterns that leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted. Past experiences may still shape how you relate to others or to yourself, even when you long for something healthier and more fulfilling. You want relief, understanding, and a sense of safety in your relationships and within yourself. We can help, you don’t have to navigate this alone.

Hi, I’m Jae, a therapist who believes that healing happens in relationship, not in isolation. Whether you're here because you're overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or just longing for a deeper sense of connection with yourself or others, I want you to know: you don’t have to do this alone. In fact, none of us should do life's hardest parts alone. Therapy with me will grow your capacity to understand what's going on inside, to be supported, and to trust that it’s okay to let someone in. In the process, you will learn to increase your coping skills, learning to regulate and care for yourself more easily.

Seeking therapy takes courage. Many people arrive feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or struggle with patterns that are hard to change. Beneath that struggle is often a deep desire for clarity, stability, and hope. Therapy provides a thoughtful and supportive space to talk openly, understand what has been shaping your experiences, and begin moving toward meaningful change. My goal is to help clients make sense of what feels confusing, strengthen what feels fragile, and move forward with greater confidence and direction.

I work with a variety of clients, all having one thing in common: They are unhappy with the direction their life has taken and seek insight so that their lives can change. Whether they are wanting to process a life event and only want to come one or two sessions, or whether they want to make a long-term connection with a counselor, I tailor my therapy to my clients' needs. My approach is interactive, engaging my clients in conversations that help them process past or present events, so that they can find their own path to healing.

I believe it is an honor to be trusted with a person's deepest emotions. I am here to offer you a space where you feel supported, understood, and challenged to explore those difficult and seemingly hard to reach places within yourself. I will foster a trusting relationship where, together, we can identify the strengths you already have, in order to cultivate change, growth, and healing. I approach therapy through an experiential lens (understanding, accepting, and experiencing emotions that guide our behaviors).

You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m a queer therapist based in Portland, OR, and I specialize in working with adolescents. With over 10 years in higher level of care settings I’m experienced navigating eating disorders, trauma, identity, depression and anxiety. Many of the people I work with feel disconnected from their bodies, stuck in patterns around food, or overwhelmed by internal pressure they can’t quite name. Often, there’s a deeper story underneath—of trying to cope, to feel safe, or to find a sense of control in a world that hasn’t always felt affirming. In our work together, we slow things down and get curious.
