I am currently accepting new clients for Level 1 adult autism evaluations in collaboration with Empower Psychological Services. My evaluation process is person-centered and strengths-based, focusing on your story and experiences as well as diagnostic clarity. In addition to the clinical interview, all evaluations include an in-depth feedback session, a comprehensive report, and individualized recommendations. My approach in both the evaluation process and as a psychotherapist is grounded in compassion and empathy, as well as being neurodiverse-affirming and trauma-informed.

Ever made to feel never enough? Do you fear how others would react if you were to make a mistake, share your authentic self, or reveal your family or relationship is not as picture perfect? Are you haunted by your past, worried about the future, or feel in some way “broken”? We all learn ways to cope when in an invalidating environment. Perhaps you are the supportive rock for your friends that believe you have it all together. Maybe you learned it was safest to be invisible, perfect, or take care of everyone but yourself. These strategies have at one time helped, but are now keeping you from living the life that you want.

I work with people having a wide range of concerns. Areas of specialty include identity formation, relationship dynamics, loss, and issues of spirituality (both questioning and growth). I work especially well with persons who are curious about themselves and their ways of interacting with the world. I practice relationally-based psychoanalytic psychotherapy; meaning that, where relevant, we talk about relationships in your life impacting your way of navigating the world. We have each found ways to survive our world as best we can; at some point, we may consider wanting to shift these ways because they do not work as well as they once did.

I help people who have been considered "non-traditional" in many ways, people who have been "othered", and felt like outsiders their whole lives. Perhaps you are feeling disconnected, stuck in patterns, at a crossroads, hitting a wall, desiring change or needing nonjudgmental guidance. You don't have to do this alone. Prioritizing your healing is a powerful way we positively impact ourselves and others. Together we create a supported container for whatever you bring, to facilitate deep understanding and create workable sustainable solutions. I specialize in trauma, transgender identities and ADHD. Offering ASD/ADHD assessments.

Our work together involves tending to the root of imbalance, alchemizing pain into medicine, and re-orienting artistic creation and mothers as the center of life. As a relational, intuitive, and earth-centered practitioner, I believe reality can be imagined, gestated, and birthed anew. We can meet in my office in Portland, our local forests, or virtually. May we remember healing is belonging within the village of our hearts, our communities, and our planet.

Are you having difficulty overcoming a problem, mood or behavior? If an issue is not relatively easy to change, then chances are, there is a block of some sort preventing the progression and flow of positive thoughts, feelings and behaviors. It is frustrating, discouraging and painful as an intelligent and competent person to work on a goal and not get the results you hope for.
