Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Therapists in Eugene, OR

Are you struggling with unresolved trauma that is now affecting you in ways you can’t ignore? You may notice that your past trauma is affecting your current life. You may notice that your personal identity, family system, mood, and traumatic experiences all interact. If you're navigating the ways trauma can interact with mood, relationships, and the corresponding reckless behavior and identity deconstruction that can arise along the journey, I would love to help. I have extensive experience working with complex trauma in first responders, military members, and veterans.

Clients often come to me to work on perfectionism, relationships with emotionally immature family members/parents, boundaries, grief/loss and existential concerns. My approach is direct, caring, and humanistic and reflects values of collaboration, transparency, and trust. Therapy is an investment in your growth and personal development, the foundations of which are a solid relationship between the therapist and client. As a clinical social worker, an understanding of the systemic nature of mental health concerns is a key part of my practice.

Would you like to be living a more meaningful, authentic life? Many of the people I see struggle to prioritize themselves for a variety of reasons.

Whether you are looking to increase insight, improve your relationship, or become a better version of you, therapy can be a very useful tool. I will work collaboratively with you to identify your unique needs and provide a place for you to pursue the changes you seek.

I am passionate about co-creating narratives of identity and experience that clients find empowering. I believe that looking at the ways sexism, racism, transphobia, fatphobia, ableism, and other oppressions impact our lives helps us see things more clearly, and reduce the guilt and shame we carry. I cater mostly to clients who believe they are “too sensitive,” and working to make peace with their mind and emotions. I am elated to work with anyone who would like to build self esteem, healthier relational patterns, and a more authentic life. I'm also passionate about therapeutically integrating experiences from psychedelic medicines.

It is crucial that our work be centered in your values, beliefs, background, and culture(s). We cannot fully envision where we would like to go without solidly acknowledging where we come from, and there is no homogenized way to do this. I see social justice and mental health as inextricable, and my work as a therapist is and will always be rooted in the values of accessibility and equal opportunity. I am a part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and am happy to support trans folx with gender affirming care. The best way to reach out is through email.

I have been involved in research, assessment and treatment of AD/HD for the past 25 years. Individuals with AD/HD usually experience difficulty with focus and concentration. However, they also experience difficulties with procrastination, time management, planning, organizing, and completing projects at home, work and/or in school. There may also be difficulties with delaying gratification, impulse control, memory, and feelings of restlessness. These symptoms impact work, school, friendships, family, intimate relationships, and overall quality of life. An accurate assessment of AD/HD is an important step toward getting help.

We are collectively experiencing a major upheaval in our world, and because of this we are at point where we can make positive social change.

Healing on an individual level is the first step to healing families and communities.

My work with clients is flexible and tailored to your needs. Some folks appreciate concrete coping, relaxation, non-violent communication, or parenting tools.
