Believe in YOU

Therapy is an investment in you.

Our work can open possibilities for your healing, self-empowerment, and growth.

Guided Insight Approach to Therapy

We will work from a present-oriented perspective, which means from your day-to-day world and relationships. Patterns and life themes can be explored with curiosity and compassion through a structured, creative approach tailored to your needs.

I blend somatics and mindfulness in an active style and specialize in AEDP, Coherence Therapy, Parts work, and Dreamwork.

Some therapy styles suit individuals better than others, and your input is valued.

Opportunity for Depth-Focused Psychotherapy

Depth and shadow work often reveal our hidden gold and the beauty of our survival strategies. Dreamwork and active imagination offer powerful ways of engaging the unconscious, deepening the relationship with its symbols, and coming into more direct contact with the many facets of the self.

Licensure & Background

I’m a registered professional counselor associate with the Oregon Board of Licensed Counselors & Therapists (#R8762), supervised by Amy Foote (#C5226). I’ve spent the past several years working with adults in community mental health, and previously I worked as an academic and career counselor in higher education for over 15 years.

My training spans decades and includes intensive instruction in holistic, attachment-focused, and evidence-based therapy modalities.

Outside the Therapy Space

I am a long-time practitioner of yoga and tai chi as tools for daily living. I also love comedy, live music, fiction, and time in nature. I have a passion for continued training and research in counseling methodology, analytic psychology, and mindfulness.
