About

I provide counseling for individuals and couples in Oregon. I primarily focus on treatment for anxiety disorders, trauma, relationship issues, and sexuality concerns. *I offer a free and confidential 15 minute phone consultation for prospective clients.* -Approach- Difficult experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and stuck. At the same time, some of our biggest opportunities for growth and change can emerge from our darkest chapters. I provide a safe, open, and stable therapeutic environment where you're able to process and move through your concerns with the companionship of a neutral and experienced counselor. I love working with clients who march to the beat of their own drum and strive to create a life that feels meaningful, authentic, and secure. I'm passionate about working with those who want to discover a greater sense of empowerment, self-compassion, and connection. I aim to make therapy a collaborative space that highlights your strengths and embraces curiosity about the social and cultural context of your experiences. As a multiethnic therapist, I understand that identity can be nuanced and useful to explore within yourself and your relationships. I also enjoy helping clients process the impact that religion or spirituality has had on their past and determine what they want that relationship to look like moving forward. Lastly, I find value in understanding how past experiences with caretakers, family, friends, and romantic partners impacts your current relationships as well as your sense of self. As an integrative psychotherapist, I personally tailor various evidence-based treatment modalities to fit the unique needs of each individual. I have training and clinical experience in Narrative Therapy, EFT, EMDR, Behavioral Therapy (CBT & DBT), Sex Therapy, and the Gottman Method. I’m here to help you process the past, explore present opportunities, and create a future that aligns with your values and aspirations. Whether you're looking to gain tools for distressing situations or you're wanting to better understand yourself and your relationships, I look forward to supporting you in living a life that feels meaningful and authentic. -Insurance and Fees- I accept cash pay and OHP (CareOregon). I can provide you with a template of questions to ask your insurance provider to learn about out-of-network reimbursement. I provide Superbills that can be submitted to your insurance for reimbursement.
