It is never too late to have a healthy and flourishing relationship.
Welcome! I am accepting Oregonian clients online. And I see couples and individuals who come to me for many reasons: frustration, sadness, grief, worry, irritability, responses from past trauma and struggling to get along even though they really love their partner. Individuals who work with me have numerous unique needs and goals and the same is true for couples. But overall, people want inner freedom which opens their horizons and also grounds them in love, harmony and peace. People want to live in the present and have optimism about their future and feel connected to their loved ones.

Waitlist for new clients
I specialize in depression and anxiety, chronic pain, multicultural assimilation, crisis of meaning, grief, and loss, relationship difficulties, parenting issues.
I have had the privilege of witnessing people undergo the slow, extremely subtle and remarkable journey of healing and self-transformation. This process of psychological growth is astoundingly complex, multilayered, circular and even mysteriously numinous in its unfolding. My philosophy as a therapist is primarily on core transformation rather than merely symptom management and needless to say, I strongly believe in the centrality of the therapeutic relationship as a significant healing agent. Moving towards our wholeness necessitates the courage to first move into the wounded parts that we all have as members of the human species.

The issues my clients typically face and experience are trauma, loss, and grief. Many of the clients I see have gone to therapy in the past and have experienced poor results or are those who have never been to therapy before and find that for the first time that they need someone to talk to about issues that they are experiencing.

I know that the quality of the therapy relationship is the key factor in successful therapy.
Real transformation often begins when you're suffering intensely. The intense suffering breaks through your hesitation to change at a core level. You don't have a choice anymore. Dark material surfaces: emotional and physical trauma, religious trauma, loss, anxiety, spiritual crisis, meaninglessness, depression, and illness. Imagine that the symptoms you're suffering from are calling you home to a new way of living and being. I bring a high level of clinical experience, training, and compassion to my work. I am truly interested in you, how you got to this difficult point, and how to connect you to your authentic self.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
