About

Free & confidential phone consultations available for prospective clients.

I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) providing trauma-informed therapy in Oregon for adults and couples. I work with clients seeking support for anxiety, OCD, relationship concerns, perinatal and postpartum mental health, sexual health, and major life transitions. Services are available via telehealth for clients located in Oregon. Sessions are held Monday–Thursday. -Approach- Facing difficult experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and stuck. Yet these challenges often hold the potential for profound growth, transformation, and self-discovery. I offer a safe, open, and stable therapeutic environment where you can explore your concerns with the support of a neutral, experienced licensed professional counselor. I especially enjoy working with creative and highly motivated individuals who are striving to live a meaningful, authentic, and secure life. My passion is helping clients cultivate greater empowerment, self-compassion, and connection. I aim to make therapy a collaborative space that highlights your strengths and embraces curiosity about the social and cultural context of your experiences. As a multiethnic therapist, I understand that identity can be complex and meaningful to explore, both within yourself and in your relationships. I’m passionate about supporting clients through significant life transitions such as shifts in life or relationship roles, parenthood, career changes, relocation, or closing one chapter to begin another. I also enjoy helping clients explore the impact of religion or spirituality on their past and define what they want that relationship to look like moving forward. Lastly, I find value in exploring how past experiences with caretakers, family, friends, and romantic partners influence current relationships and one's sense of self. I’m here to help you process the past, explore present opportunities, and create a future that aligns with your values and aspirations. Whether you're looking to gain tools for distressing situations or you want to better understand yourself and your relationships, I look forward to supporting you in living a life that feels meaningful and authentic. -Areas of Focus- Anxiety and panic Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) Relationship and couples therapy Sexual health concerns Perinatal and postpartum mental health Life transitions and identity changes Religious or spiritual exploration Attachment and relational patterns -Therapy Types- As a relational and integrative licensed therapist, I personally tailor various evidence-based treatment modalities to fit the unique needs of each individual. I have training and clinical experience in ACT, DBT, EMDR, ERP, EFT, Sex Therapy, and the Gottman Method. -Insurance and Fees- I accept United, Optum, Aetna, and out-of-pocket payment.
