About

I am here to support clients in improving their overall well-being, whether it's in reaching their goals (personal, relationship, career, etc), developing coping skills, or processing difficult situations. I offer individual and couples counseling via Telehealth for residents of Oregon. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, LGBTQ+ issues, gender issues, and SMART goal setting. I provide person-centered, trauma informed, and evidence based individual and couples therapy, adapting my approach to help you meet your needs. My collaborative, culturally sensitive and empathetic approach aims to ensure you feel heard, understood, and empowered to reach your goals in a way that works best for you. I am here to support, empower and be a resource for you. Take the first steps towards your goals, positive change and growth by scheduling an appointment with me today.

"I use predominately Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, utilizing elements of Reality Therapy, Strengths-Based, Positive Psychology and Mindfulness adapted to and based on client need."
