When you or your relationship are suffering, it can feel impossible to create lasting change. Throw stressors of big decisions, work, family or past/present trauma into the mix and it’s no wonder we feel lost at times. I want to join you right in the middle of your greatest struggle. In your time with me, you’ll find the empathetic guidance needed to process unheard pain and sort out misunderstood anger. Together we can transform damaging patterns within yourself or relationship into connection and confidence. We start where you are, doubts and questions included, and discover how your steps toward positive change will continue.
I see individuals, couples and families, working through relationship distress, past/present loss or trauma, depression, anxiety and parenting issues. My style is relational and nonjudgemental, encouraging you to be truthful with yourself and others. My approach is integrative, so you can connect mind, body and soul in an empowering way that fits you.
Every part of your experience is important to me, including race, faith, family, gender, sexual orientation! In addition to my special training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and trauma treatment, your investment in therapy means you get me-My full presence, support and deep commitment to your wholeness. Note: Oregon clients-online sessions only.
