I am looking forward to working with adults, couples, families, adolescents and/or children (in no particular order) that are interested in art therapy and counseling. I have had 5 years experience in a residential setting with adolescents who struggle with both addictions and mental health concerns. And for another 7 years I worked with children and families in need of significant services at a non-profit organization downtown. I am now primarily working with Clients (like you!) at my private practice in SE Portland and am truly enjoying the experience.

Do you find that small, unforeseeable incidents ellicit intense emotions you’re unable to cope with? It may feel like life is a struggle. You do your best to cope with it all, but you cannot seem to find a balance. It is possible you have experienced a traumatic injury in your life, and you’re not sure how to allow yourself to truly acknowledge what has occurred. Nonetheless, it's increasingly difficult to find a peaceful moment in this fast paced world.

Suffering happens in isolation. The power of human connection and telling your story can be healing. I believe we're all incredibly resilient at our cores, though this can be overshadowed and challenged by expected and unexpected change, difficult events & trauma, and the subsequent wading & struggling through transition that inevitably follows. I can help you work through the hard parts. Expand awareness and understanding around destructive patterns and apply practices that improve your quality of life. You can manage really overwhelming feelings, reduce pain, deepen & enjoy relationships and even rediscover peace of mind.

"Experiencing moments of emotional distress due to life challenges is a common human experience. At times, however, life’s hardships can overwhelm our minds and bodies, leaving us feeling overly stressed, unwell, depressed, out of balance, and/or empty. Whether the source of the distress was a specific event, trauma or loss, a relationship dynamic, or in response to a life transition, I believe we all have the capacity for healing and personal growth, as well as the potential to create a more meaningful life.

I work best with creative, intellectual folks who get stuck in dark rumination about self-worth and past wounding, people who think, "I know better, but I don't feel better." This may show up as depression or anxiety or a feedback loop between the two. It may show up as shame or aggression. It may show up as tension in the body. It definitely means unfulfilled potential and likely rocky relationships with self and others that perpetuate a cycle of limiting beliefs. I also tend to connect well with folks who identify as neurodivergent.

Currently I have only one opening, specifically for someone interested in IFS. I will edit this profile when that changes. I especially enjoy working with individuals who have experienced "outsider status" and are on a journey to create a sense of belonging in their own way and style. Many of my patients are creatives who experience hindrances in connecting with their creative energies and seek ways to more fully nourish and honor these aspects of Self.

My focus for the last 13 years has been in medical social work with an emphasis on serving older adults and their caregivers; The last 7 of which have been dedicated to supporting those affected by cancer. I am deeply committed to understanding how one’s story, through attachment, attunement and life experience informs one’s ability to cope with unforeseen changes and variables. I believe that how one "shows up" in relationship to self and others is usually related to one's limbic response to stress, typically imparted during one's formative years. I work with clients who feel "uprooted" by their life circumstance.
