Therapists Beginning With V in Oregon
At heart, I think my work has to do with finding mercy-first for oneself, and then for others. Perhaps you are suffering because of long-held negative beliefs or expectations. Maybe you grew up in a household that negated your humanity, or had to keep secrets, or deal with trauma without help. Some part of you knows there's more to life. Together, we will reverently look at symptoms like depression, anxiety, insomnia, anger, passivity, and other life, work, or relationship issues through the lens of psychotherapy, somatic patterns, the nervous system, dreams, symbols, and language.

Sorry, I am not currently accepting new clients.
I have been a clinician for over 40 years and offer energy psychotherapy and counseling to adults & teens, primarily for healing from trauma. Energy psychology is a gentle approach to resolving problems. It often offers a quicker and deeper resolution than talk therapy alone can provide. I also work with anxiety, depression, and many other problems.

Psychotherapy is often described as ‘the treatment of mental disorders,’ but that is only one of many reasons a person may seek services. Psychologists have the unique knowledge & expertise to draw connections between past relational patterns, individual brain chemistry, heritability of symptoms, emotional awareness, & thought processes/behaviors that perpetuate impairments in functioning. Psychotherapy isn’t a matter of asking a question & receiving advice - but rather learning the skills to make sense of life & building the confidence to take control of it.

You work so hard to become a professional and then Wham, out of nowhere you begin to experience anxiety or a feeling that maybe you don't know what you are doing after all. Your supervisor's communication feels like sandpaper and you get emotional without apparent reason. The work just doesn't feel like what you expected and you just feel out of sorts. You begin to realize you are using substances and some pretty unhealthy behavior just to cope. I mean it was fine in college but now it keeps you from feeling good. You need support from someone that gets it. You just need to get back on track.
