Therapists in Oregon

For over 30 years, I've had the honor of assisting couples, families, and individuals of all ages, as they identify, clarify and find constructive coping strategies to deal with issues relating to anxiety, depression, grief, anger and relationships. As a Marriage & Family Therapist, I especially enjoy working on issues such as affair recovery, attachment disorders and phase-of-life challenges. Whether you are struggling with a relationship in your life, overwhelming anxiety, or some other problem, I would be honored to work with you. I prefer to work with those who have clear goal goals, and who are solution-focused.

My approach to counseling is collaborative and my goal is to develop caring, respectful relationships with my clients. I believe everyone can develop new skills and strategies in order to be successful. My therapeutic interventions are holistic and integrative and the specific treatment strategies I utilize in my practice include those drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused, Mindfulness Based, and Play Therapy. My practice focuses on promoting healing and resiliency in children, families, and adults. My work is greatly influenced by attachment and developmental theories, brain and trauma research, and the practice of mindfulness throughout the lifespan.

As a mental health therapist, and clinic director at Senua Counseling Clinic, I work from a client centered, integrative approach. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), client centered treatment, and solution focused therapy. I also believe that we need to work together, as a team, to help you achieve your goals. The body and mind are greatly connected and intertwined, which is why I believe in a holistic approach to mental health care. I am happy and honored to provide you with a non-judgmental, safe space for you to tell your story, set your goals, and become the person you were meant to be.

Sometimes life's challenges can be overwhelming, and you may seek counseling to regain your life balance, energy, and happiness. I facilitate clients' exploration to promote wellness, personal growth, and positive life changes. I work together with clients to develop strengths, reach goals, and to foster emotional healing. I offer insightful support to your growth in developing healthier coping strategies, identifying effective problem-solving skills, and improving communication skills. Everyone's situation is unique so together we will design the best plan to find healthy solutions to life's challenges.

Each one of us possesses problem-solving strengths. In times of transition and stress, these strengths can seem dormant. Therapy can uncover and further develop a personal resiliency. Having someone there to guide us on our path, through the brambles of life can be helpful. I believe therapy is a collaborative endeavor and my goal is to meet you where you are, with your life experience, self-awareness and intention.

Life is CHALLENGING--especially for Highly Sensitive People (HSP) in over-stimulating environments! I work with HSPs, Creatives & the Gifted to uncover the root-causes of distress and reconnect with inner resources for healing and creating change. Often our most persistent struggles are caused by parts of ourselves that we are not fully aware of. I help you safely access the wisdom of even wounded, scared, immobilized or angry parts. By compassionately listening, you discover your richest experiences & hopes, greatest passions & gifts. THEN walking away from habits that don't work, and into the life you want, becomes possible.
