Education and Learning Disabilities Therapists in Oregon

Parenting a child with challenging behaviors day in and day out can be isolating and lonely. It's tough to navigate through the hard days, months, or even years, wondering if anyone else understands. But I want you to know, you can feel less alone in the struggle and things can feel better. Maybe your child experienced early trauma; maybe your child was exposed to drugs in-utero; maybe your child spent time in foster care or is adopted; maybe your child is neurodivergent; or maybe they've just always had a difficult temperament. Whatever the reason, I'm glad you're here.

As a psychologist, I evaluate and treat patients through a variety of methods, most typically being psychotherapy or talk therapy. Patients usually visit me because they have been experiencing depression, anxiety, stress or anger for a significant period of time and are seeking help.

I believe that children and adolescents, as well as adults, must be given a variety of tools to understand, express and integrate their life experiences. Utilizing play, art and other expressive media offers clients opportunities to learn – not only about themselves, but also about their relationships to others and to the world. Play and art are also storytelling tools: powerful ways in which we make sense of our experiences, with the opportunity to rewrite that story. Whether working with children, adolescents or adults, I rely on a variety of therapeutic tools to help clients understand and process their experiences.

"Our action may be impeded... but there can be no impeding our intentions or dispositions.

Most of us have difficulties being able to live the life we would like to live. Sometimes it can be hard to see what within us is getting in the way of achieving our goals. We do not exist in a vacuum, other people play a part in why we are who we are, and it takes people to help us create lasting change. My focus is to meet you where you are and help you grow right there, to clear away what is confusing and stifling, and to help you be wholly yourself. I also specialize in ADHD skills building and Career Counseling.

I believe that when we are buried in fear, anxiety, depression, existential dread or the various forms of mental and emotional distress that lead us to seek counseling, we are primarily dealing with a loss of connection. That disconnection - from people, purpose, safety, motivation, meaning and even disconnection from our own sense of self - can have so many different causes, and each of us must chart our own path to wholeness which can feel impossible to do on our own. I am continuously humbled by the bravery of my clients as they step onto this path of healing and self discovery which is not always easy, but is always worth it.
