Waitlist for new clients
I currently have a 1-3 month waitlist. For new client inquiries, please fill out the new inquiry form at my clinic's website at hmhpdx.com. I practice depth psychology, meaning that one’s whole life story is important when considering present difficulties, struggling relationships, or emotional discord. In knowing how our lives have shaped us, we can bring healing to complicated relational patterns or painful past experiences, and find greater happiness in the here and now.

Anxiety is a very common experience, and in times of real threat or danger, it is our best friend. However, anxiety can become unhelpful and maladaptive in situations when it is excessive, disproportionate to actual danger posed, or gets in the way of what we have to or want to do with our lives. This is the type of anxiety individuals typically come to see me for help, whether it is in the context of an anxiety disorder or an obsessive-compulsive and related disorder. Individuals who come to work with me want to take back what anxiety and OCD took from them in order to live their lives as they would like.

Did you grow up in a controlling religious environment? Did you receive shaming messages leaving you to feel divided on the inside? These experiences can be confusing, making it difficult to know who you really are or what you want out of life. Even though you’ve left the church where you grew up, you still feel shame, guilt, anger, and more. Your family relationships are strained because you no longer fit in with the family culture. These problems have negatively affected the way you interact with romantic partners, authority figures at work, and even with your own body.

Therapy can seem daunting; you have to become vulnerable before you will start seeing benefits. For many, this is more anxiety producing than not. You might not know what to expect. You might have had a bad experience with a prior therapist. You might feel hopeless, like no amount of therapy can help you. You can be helped. It’s likely that you have an issue in your life that is causing you ambivalence, or else you wouldn’t be seeking therapy. To have ambivalence means you are uncertain about your life in the now, and choices you must make to manifest the future you want are causing you depression, fear, and/or anxiety.

My ideal client wants to experience more connection in their lives. They want to feel more deeply connected to themselves as well as to the people they care about. However, this can feel really challenging at times, if not most of the time. We may feel overwhelmed often. We may struggle to relate with people in the way that we most want to. And we may be really hard on ourselves for it all. My ideal client wants to feel more possibility in their lives and to experience more capacity to navigate life's challenges. They want to experience more compassion for themselves. Ultimately, they want to feel more ease in being who they are.

My counseling style is accepting, respectful, and down to earth. I am direct yet in a compassionate, thoughtful way. One of my key beliefs is that we all have needs in our life such as the needs to experience a sense of belonging and acceptance, value and worth. I can help you become more aware of what needs you and significant others in your life have, how you are currently trying to satisfy those, and explore alternative means to fulfilling your needs if appropriate. This can help with improving mood, enhancing relationships, decreasing anxiety- just to name a few concerns.

I am currently accepting new clients. I am licensed in both Oregon and Washington. Are you trying to recover from childhood trauma? Or trying to adjust to the shock of being diagnosed with ADHD or Autism as an adult?
