I believe change happens when people feel heard, support, and empowered. Through a collaborative and compassionate approach, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to explore their personal experiences, thoughts, and feelings. I tailor therapy to each person's unique needs, drawing on their strengths to foster growth and support clients towards reaching their goals.
I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, where we work together to identify your strengths and navigate challenges. Because each person is unique, I tailor my approach to meet your specific needs and goals. I integrate a variety of evidenced based therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Collaborative Problem Solving, skill-building and mindfulness practices. My goal is for your to gain insight, learn tools, and feel empowered both in and outside of the therapy room.
My educational background includes a Masters of Education from Lewis and Clark College and a Bachelors of Science from Oregon State University. I have completed additional training in Solution Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Behavioral Therapy, and Collaborative Problem Solving. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Oregon.
