I love helping people find and identify the different parts of themselves and how they present different roles and faces depending upon the situation or environment. I enjoy providing space for learning how to mesh these roles and faces together to create who the person is and how to be comfortable with that. The more we understand the parts of ourselves and know who we are, the more we know how to cope with life and what life throws at us, the more we understand to adapt, grow, and heal. This helps us understand and honor ourselves better. I’d love to be able to help you identify who you are, so you can be who you want to be.

I am not your conventional psychotherapist. My journey into the world of mental health is uniquely shaped by my background as a ski journalist and lived experiences of grief, loss, tragedy, and trauma. Driven by a desire to bridge my passion for storytelling with holistic healing, I use my sincere interest in the human experience in the therapy setting to treat adults, couples, and families living with shame, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, addiction, and life transitions and questions. As the Sufi poet Rumi once wrote, “The cure for pain is in the pain.”

I enjoy working with clients who are experiencing difficult life transitions, adoption, sexual trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, and those who aren't quite sure what category they would fall into. Once you walk into the room it is up to the therapist & the client to figure out how the therapist can facilitate personal life growth.In session we will learn to Express ourselves through art, nature, our bodies and minds. We may take a walk, create something abstract or sit and talk; the therapy adventure is yours and I am simply a therapist to guide you towards stability, growth and your highest potential.

Accepting new clients! At some point in our lives, we recognize that what we're doing isn’t working. We wake up and realize this isn’t the life we want to live. We don’t want to keep existing with so much stress, anxiety, anger, or isolation and crave connection, acceptance, and genuine happiness. We want things to be different, but don’t know how or where to start. I work with people who want to redefine their lives and reduce suffering, and help them get there. I work with individuals, couples, and those looking to integrate past psychedelic experiences to create lasting, positive change.

Van Der Kolk (2014) wrote "The Body Keeps The Score" where he explains we know about significant neurological changes in the brain due to trauma (above symptoms), but we also know interventions that really work, particularly EMDR & somatic (body) interventions.
When the body holds the physical symptoms of chronic stress and traumatic stress, life can become overwhelming, relationships difficult, and feeling comfortable in your own shoes may become uncertain. You need help to see the path forward and the skills to control and calm yourself in those high-stress moments that come out of nowhere. You want to feel in control of yourself and you want to respond to others in a way that you feel good about, remembering without regret, and feeling strong enough to build the connections you value.

EMDR and somatic attunement invites your body into this process, strengthening your own intuitive, adaptive nature to transform trauma so it no longer haunts.
Accepting clients for our clinic only - Are you struggling to find purpose or you feel out of place like this world wasn't built for you? Maybe you want things to make sense, but your emotions just don't. Or your thoughts have a mind of their own! You're trying your best to adapt to a world that doesn't support all your needs. These are not personal failures. Don't blame the flower when it wilts! With tender attention and care, you'll become the gentle gardener of your soul. Therapy is a creative space for us to learn how to do just that. I'm wholeheartedly with you as you gain a richer understanding and appreciation of yourself.

Through somatic techniques and evidence-based therapies, you’ll be guided to reconnect with your body's wisdom, embrace self-compassion, and empower yourself to live a life aligned with your values.
Are you wanting to reclaim your authentic self? You want to be more in control of your anger and emotions, not be taken for a ride again and again. You "know better" yet are frustrated that you keep doing the same thing. Or maybe you're in a relationship that's disconnected and you want to revive the love and intimacy? These can be challenging issues to face alone. Unfortunately, many people learn to tune-out or dissociate in these situations, which can cause more difficulty and lead to feeling stuck or hopeless. I focus on integrative practices that address your mind, body, spirit and emotions - it's not all in your head.

While our thoughts and emotions are important, equally of value are the somatic sensations experienced within the body.
The journey towards therapy can feel overwhelming. You may find yourself feeling alone, scared, misunderstood, or completely stuck. Having someone by your side to explore the parts of yourself that prevent you from living the life you desire can make a world of difference. I offer a compassionate and supportive presence. It is my intention to help guide my clients towards developing a healthy and strong sense of self, and an understanding of the feelings and emotions that emerge during the counseling process. Being human involves not just the mind but also the body and soul. I am licensed in both Oregon and Washington.

Accepting clients for our clinic only - These days, it can feel like life is moving too fast for us to keep up. This is made all the more challenging when we struggle with such things as unhealthy relationships, intense negative feelings, poor self-image, or trauma. You may worry that getting help means enduring an uncomfortable process that may not result in any notable change. I believe that therapy does not have to be painful to be successful. That it can be infused with moments of laughter and insight. It is about determining why we are stuck as well as figuring out how to create and maintain practical positive changes.

I specialize in working with couples in all stages of their relationships - from those who are dating or engaged, to newly married or navigating life with children or facing issues related to blended families, to those who have been together for decades. I also work with individuals navigating divorce, helping them process the challenges that come with that journey so they can come out on the other side in a healthy way. When clients arrive at the first session nervous or ambivalent about whether counseling can really help, I focus on putting them at ease and building confidence in their own ability to create the change they want.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
