Hi! My name is Dominique. I grew up abroad and have engaged with people from all corners of life. I have a collaborative approach, listening to individuals process through their struggles, empowering change while developing strategies to implement change. We all have a need to share a story and I enjoy listening to stories providing an opportunity of a dynamic ending. Some of my areas of interest are life transitions, anxiety, trauma, coping skills, relationship issues, and stress.

Only accepting IHN and cash online clients. Do you sometimes feel like your own mind is against you? Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, existential angst, lack of motivation, or interpersonal alienation and difficulty getting your needs met? I have a whole bag of tricks that I've developed in my 15+ year career that may help; and what I've found helps most is the therapeutic relationship itself. My goal as a counselor is always to be a mental health ally, to be present and focused. To help you figure out concrete and actionable goals to help you grow more towards being the best version of yourself.

Are you coming for help with adjusting to a life transition, healing trauma, grieving a loss, coping with a diagnosis, or not quite getting to what your life is all about? Our work begins with my deeply listening to what brings you into therapy. Deep listening can be so healing in itself. I am strength-based, collaborative and practical.

As a social worker, my focus is on the "big picture" — including environment, past experiences, and future expectations. I assist clients in coping with life transitions, managing anxiety, depression, attention deficit, sleeplessness, chronic health conditions, caregiver role strain, or accommodating a traumatic loss. We can help you find more fulfilling work and relationships. I am licensed and provide tele-visits to anyone in Arizona and Oregon. I sometimes offer in-person appointments if desired.

Everyday we make choices from the very mundane like what we have for breakfast or which shirt to wear, to the life changing like taking a new job, getting married, or moving somewhere you've never been. However easily these questions (and others) may be answered by some, there are many who have difficulty because the answers are not always so clear. Counseling can help in these moments of uncertainty. Whether it is a few hours of voicing your concerns or several months of assistance, a counselor can help you tackle life challenges more easily.

Hello, thank you for stopping by my page. Making the decision to begin therapy is not easy. But it can also be a powerful experience, a healing experience and an opportunity for personal growth. You might have been experiencing anxiety or depression for a long time, or you may be dealing with a difficult life event, such as family, relationships, or school. I will support you in developing self-awareness, self-compassion and skills to overcome the various barriers we face in our lives. Therapy is a unique, collaborative environment, which I strive to make safe, welcoming and non-judgemental.

MARCH 2024: OPEN to new clients. Would you like more balance, peace, understanding, health and happiness in your life? Better communication? Tired of guilt, blame, confusion, and tension? I want to help you move forward and to find more satisfaction, connection, and fun. Complete respect, safety, and confidentiality are assured. LGBTQIA+ super-comfy, also psychoactives support and harm reduction. (Apologies: Insurance not accepted.)

Welcome! All of us come to a time in our lives where we want to talk to someone. In a safe place to process our thoughts and feelings, while using self-compassion and nonjudgment. To come to a deeper understanding of our behaviors, emotions, and ideas, or what the root may be. We then develop our sense of clarity and pleasures in life. We cooperatively define the direction of your counseling session and goals. We are all unique in our humanity, as our situations and experiences are all different yet the same. And at the beginning of each day, we can all conclude "I am enough".

We all become (at some point) shackled to a stuck version of ourselves. Being vulnerable enough to choose something other than our perfectly practiced persona can seem ~impossible. Is your ~asker too broken to learn another way? It takes courage to recreate, redefine, and let go of what doesn't work! "I Don't Know," become very important words when we choose to sail the rough seas...and yet, the risk can be so beautiful. It becomes excruciatingly clear that the pain of staying where we are, must become more acute than leaping into something wonderfully new!

The best way to reach me is via email, as opposed to phone. Thanks! - - - - - - - - - - - - - I find the greatest success working with clients who over-think and ruminate, feeding negative valuations of themselves and the world around them, and who struggle with accompanying forms of worry, anxiety, and perfectionism. In providing a safe, non-judgmental space in which to build rapport, and by utilizing a conversational style, clients often feel more comfortable opening up and addressing the issues bringing them to counseling.

I enjoy working with individuals who are seeking to improve their relationships, gain support and encouragement in their parenting, discover personal empowerment, cultivate positive and healthy habits, and cope with anxiety, depression, and grief. I take a holistic approach, incorporating mind, body, and spirit into my work. If you are feeling overwhelmed, burnt-out, or discouraged, it can make a world of difference to have a space to share your struggles and to feel heard and understood.

Welcome to support for the second half of life! If you are dealing with changing health, self-reinvention, or aging, you have found a therapeutic home. Meeting is convenient: You can see me at the Sage Center, at an Assisted Living or Skilled Nursing facility, or work by video or phone - I have provided telehealth since 2005. You can expect compassion based on 40-years experience including career and retirement counseling, LGBTQ advocacy and counseling, inpatient gero-psych, work at care facilities and work with first nations people in 3 countries will allow us to get to the issues quickly and with deep understanding.

I truly believe that each of us has the ability to heal ourselves, to live a meaningful and joy-filled existence, and learn to love, honor, and celebrate ourselves. However, there are a multitude of barriers to this way of living. Trauma, self-doubt, painful relationships, grief, loss, disconnection, and loneliness can leave scars on our hearts and minds that affect our behaviors, our relationships, and how we regard ourselves.

I have been a licensed counselor since 1998. Areas of experience include working with children, adolescents and adults focusing on rebuilding and/or developing the ability to navigate life's challenges. I believe that all human beings are spiritual, biological and emotional and that healing comes from balancing these aspects of self. I use traditional talk therapies such as Contextual Family Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I also have pursued certification programs in Hypnotherapy, Neurolinguistic Programing, Professional Life Coaching and Neurobiofeedback as well as other continuing education courses required by NBCC and Oregon.

Perhaps you are going through a rough patch and could use support and guidance, or perhaps you’ve struggled for many years and would like to see things differently, live things differently and are ready to “do therapy.” You are not broken. We each of us are inherently whole and in response to internalized messages and expected roles, or difficult situations and difficult histories, ill health, extreme stressors or trauma, our lives can feel broken. My passion is to help you feel more connected to yourself and the people you love and the world around you.

I provide professional counseling and consultation in person and online for people who are struggling with anxiety, depression or various life issues. I encourage you to find your natural strengths that can help you heal. Our interactions create a comfortable place where you feel accepted and valued. My most important priority is to build that personal connection where you feel heard and respected.

I believe healing starts with being kind to ourselves. Life has a tendency to throw curve balls that trigger old hurts and make us feel small and inadequate. It’s these very moments of vulnerability that provide opportunities to learn and step into a bigger version of ourselves - if we are ready. It is my honor to walk alongside you on your journey to connecting to yourself and the world around you, and figuring out next steps. I believe in a holistic approach that involves mind, body, heart and soul, each of which provide unique information about the work that is needed at this time.

Often, we find ourselves stuck, with thoughts, feelings, and patterns that can undermine the hopes we have for ourselves and our lives. We may be struggling with depression or anxiety, a relationship, an inner critic that will not quiet, a lack of meaning/purpose, or life transitions. My intention is to create a safe, nonjudgmental, authentic space where all parts of you are welcome and where your full self is acknowledged and heard. With a deeply felt understanding of mind-body healing, I use a holistic approach that provides opportunities for greater physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
