Female Therapists in Medford, OR
My approach to therapy began with a passion for working with individuals affected by past trauma. Throughout my professional development, I have integrated a humanistic/existential approach to treatment, incorporated spirituality as appropriate, and discovered the effectiveness of applying a theoretical orientation based on client presentation rather than therapist preference. In my career I have been fortunate enough to train in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) which added a much-needed behavioral component to my approach, and I have found this treatment modality (as well as CBT) to be helpful for clients across the board.

Sometimes stress gets stored in the body and no matter how much we try to talk ourselves out of it, we still feel stuck. This kind of stress (often tied up with anxiety) benefits from a biological approach, along with traditional talk therapy. I use EMDR and other non-invasive somatic/biological methods in conjunction with talk therapy (i.e. CBT, ACT) to help people build resilience and feel better. I believe that with some tailoring and practice, everyone can learn to rewire their brains and make great strides in creating healthier, happier lives.

Are you suffering from low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, trauma? Feeling overwhelmed by the stressors of the world? Feeling disconnected from life and don't know what to do to change and get the quality life you deserve? Tired of feeling angry and misunderstood? We all want and need to be understood; to build our own version of what our quality life looks like: independence, a sense of self that includes compassion and love, and to be free from both mental and physical suffering.

I fully believe that clients do well if they can! This being said, sometimes life becomes too difficult to manage and maneuver on our own and we need a little support and guidance. The therapeutic process is based on a clients strength, their drive, what coping skills they have, and what they know already works for them. The therapeutic process takes time, it is hard, but given enough support and strength, the process is worth it. My focus is on helping clients, families, and couples create an environment that is positive and healthy all around.

Scheduling new clients soon! I believe youth have powerful voices, and valid important things to say that often go unheard. I work with families that have mutual goals and desires for conflict resolution and effective communication strategies to promote client care. I value recognizing strength in wisdom and reflection of life's narratives through relationships. I see creative thinking pathways, schemas, and expressive arts as essential to understanding ourselves, others, and the world around us. If you are wanting to move towards your goals and build confidence through experiential counseling techniques, please schedule a consult.

As a therapist, I understand how overwhelming and challenging life can become at times. Finding a therapist that’s the right fit for you is important. My goal is to seek to understand you and your needs so that I can support you in moving towards your desired goals. I believe that each client has the gifts and strengths they need to be successful. When we hit “stuck spots” it can be challenging to recognize those gifts. I see myself as a life coach, marriage counselor, parenting coach, and personal therapist. I believe that everyone deserves to be treated with compassion so that therapy can be a safe space to heal and move forward.

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here. Life can sometimes leave you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or lost. If you’ve experienced trauma, you may feel like no one else can understand the weight you are carrying. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, flashbacks, or relationship difficulties. Trust and connection may seem like a tall order and doing it alone can leave you feeling exhausted and hopeless. Trauma isn’t just what happened to you – it’s how your brain processed and was reshaped by what happened. As a therapist specializing in trauma, I understand how deeply it can affect your identity, wellbeing, and sense of safety.

Hi there, I'm Courtney, and I'm here to provide a safe and supportive environment for young individuals to feel understood & valued. I primarily see clients ages 10-24, and their caregivers. Most individuals I work with have experienced painful life events, thus changing the way they interpret and react to their environment. Trauma & grief can alter the mind to "keep us safe", even using unfavored behaviors or emotions to do it. This can create a cycle in which clients feel "out of control", and because the brain has taken over to protect them, they are. We work together to regain control of the inner systems with healing & empathy.
