Couples Counseling Therapists in Oregon

We often experience the most conflict with those to whom we are closest. This can cause strain and disconnect in our most valued relationships. While this can cause strain at any time, it can be especially prominent during pregnancy and the first few years after children are born. Parenting can be incredibly rewarding…. and one of the most challenging times in our lives. It can also be an opportunity for change and growth. Individual, couples, and family therapy can help you reconnect with others, deepen and strengthen your ability to support and nurture your relationships, and your children.

I believe every client can reach an ideal state of mental health. Clients can expect to experience mental, emotional, and spiritual health in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space. In addition, clients can expect to find compassion, comfort, and forgiveness for personal and relational pain. A client who struggles with fears, anxiety, loneliness, depression, or other mental, emotional, and spiritual struggles can expect support, help, and resolutions. Through a collaborative and therapeutic relationship, clients will discover for themselves the power, freedom, and beauty of their true-selves. There is always hope.

You may feel isolated or overwhelmed by close relationships. Despite your efforts, you may feel like you're stuck in cycles that feel intractable.

Whether you are experiencing exasperation, grief, disillusionment, boredom, loneliness or something else, we can work to foster flexibility, empathy, vulnerability and resilience.

Her approach is typically a good fit for those interested in developing a longer term treatment with an interest in depth work, value a direct approach, and for those wanting "more." She addresses wants and needs, personal values, and increasing agency, compassion, and radical acceptance.
