Obesity Therapists in Clackamas County, OR

Trying to figure out how to take care of yourself and live a balance life can feel like an uphill battle. I will work with you on understanding what is causing difficulties in your life and how to approach these challenges. I am a HAES (Health at Every Size) aligned therapist and have specialized training in helping those who struggle with their relationship with food, body, & movement.

So, your relationship with food has brought you here, but maybe you’re unsure if what you consider some form of overeating warrants seeking professional help. You don't have to suffer from anorexia and/or bulimia to "deserve" treatment and support. People who are enduring binge and emotional eating are often blamed (by themselves and others) for their use of food. If this is you, you may believe you have no "will power" and your relationship with food/body is your "fault". You aren't yet aware there are reasons (always other than will power) that explain your experience with food/body. You are not to blame.

Hello my name is Jules (she/her). I am currently accepting new clients in Oregon. It is important to understand systemic oppression as it affects marginalized communities, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA plus, as cultural events and generational trauma affect our mental wellbeing. Another perspective relevant to my practice is the inclusion of feminism and a sex positive belief system. A component in my practice is eliminating stigma behind mental health issues and creating a dialogue that further removes us from the concept of “normal.”

I believe the therapeutic process is about us journeying together on the path of wholeness and healing. It is in the context of a safe, consistent, secure therapeutic relationship whereby trauma can be processed and adaptively stored, where overwhelming emotions feel safe to be expressed, where that which happened to you becomes part of your story, and no longer the one that defines you. It is my belief that as you do this courageous work of healing, you are then able to experience internal power and strength that once felt unavailable to you. I believe that every human being possesses worth and value and the capacity to heal!

As a therapist, I consider it an honor to be a part of my clients journey as they develop insight, create change, and identify goals. Life can bring up challenging and painful situations that can make us feel lost or stuck. It is easy to forget how to cope when faced with challenging circumstances. However, I believe it is in our human nature to be resilient and get back on track with the right support. My goal is to support you and provide you with the tools that you can utilize to create the happy and healthy lifestyle that fits you.

Are you struggling with compulsive sexual thoughts or behaviors that interfere with work or relationships? Do you have a secret life? Are you married to or partnered with someone who lies, cheats or betrays you? Are you re-experiencing the pain of a trauma or abuse history? I can help you gain relief from sadness, loss and grief. End the cycle of one-night stands, hook-ups and failed relationships. You can redefine your goals for healthy sexuality and find a way back to your true values, making your life worth living. Seek help. Therapy works if you are willing to work on your recovery.

Nothing has been more exciting and gratifying for me as a therapist than the moment I can see someone recognizing the patterns and thoughts which have been keeping them from the happiness and joyful life they deserve. Those moments can be the spark that starts a whole new way of thinking and living for someone. In a world that is often rich in negative emotions and destructive behavior, every new spark that can help change the way a single person feels and acts can help others too. Every great journey begins with a single step.

The body and mind are greatly connected and intertwined, which is why I believe in a holistic approach to mental health care. I am happy and honored to provide you with a non-judgmental, safe space for you to tell your story, set your goals, and become the person you were meant to be.

Brene Brown states, "Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do." Saying that going through divorce or loss of any kind can throw us for a loop is a gross understatement. Learning to navigate these difficult life transitions can make the difference between feeling stuck and actually healing. A part of you may feel angry and a part of you may feel scared, lost, alone or disconnected. Let’s figure out together how to thrive in this next season.

It's my goal to help you achieve healing and strength through emotional support, unconditional regard, and specialized techniques. I am a proactive and hands-on therapist.

I am currently accepting new clients. Helping people achieve a higher quality life with more joy never gets old. Working with full spectrum eating disorders, ranging from people who are grappling with bulimia, anorexia, binge eating, compulsive/emotional eating, to orthorexia. I address body image concerns by helping clients gain insight in order to develop effective coping mechanisms. My practice includes working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, difficult life transitions, feeling "stuck" or seeking a higher quality of life, social phobias, and obsessive compulsive issues.

Psychotherapy can be a tremendously helpful and rewarding experience for those seeking assistance. It can serve to alleviate anxiety and depression as well as help individuals to feel less conflicted and better able to reach their potential in work and relationships. As a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, I believe it is important to form a safe and reliable alliance from which we can collaboratively work on achieving your objectives.

My career as a licensed professional counselor, Lewis & Clark adjunct faculty member, and clinical supervisor, have allowed me to help clients set achievable goals with realistic objectives. I understand the challenges of transition and the importance of navigating change while remaining true to one's personal core values. My work has centered on eating disorders, addiction, depression/anxiety and divorce/relationship recovery. By providing a safe place for healing and growth, clients will begin to understand that opposing feelings are often a normal part of the recovery process. My hope is to support you as you awaken to the miraculous.
