Family Therapy in Eugene, OR

My focus is helping people transform long-standing roots of emotional distress, especially those resulting from difficult or traumatizing backgrounds, including diffuse and difficult to name traumas such as enmeshment and emotional neglect. I work together with clients to pinpoint the inner and outer sources of distress in their lives, develop a plan to transform this distress, and provide the tools of inner transformation, enabling them to relate to their lives with greater peace, clarity, stability and agency – aiming always for an open authenticity that is fully alive and empowered.

I value therapy for the opportunity to support you in exploring the places just beyond your comfort zone with curiosity and compassion.

My approach is eclectic and strengths-based, drawing from a combination of EMDR/Flash Technique, psychodynamic theories, current neuroscience, yoga and mindfulness practices, and social work values.

I am so excited to offer both counseling and clinical supervision services within my practice. I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist.
