Starting a therapeutic journey that explores change is a big decision. One of the most important parts of this endeavor is to be paired with a mental health provider that is right for you. I'm here to help clients navigate a sense of self, life goals, and relationships.
Many of my clients are struggling with anxiety, depression, suicidality, mood disorders, body image, eating disorders, codependency, and strained relationships. We work together in a supportive environment to move through these experiences by gaining insight through introspection and building coping skills. I have extensive experience working with healthcare professionals and first responders. With a trauma informed care lens, I utilize a multitude of modalities depending on a client’s specific needs. I specialize in working with complex trauma histories, as well as those who struggle with impulsivity, behavioral patterns and addiction.
I have facilitated group therapy for many populations including; LGBTQIA+, Healthcare Professionals/ Service workers, and those struggling with addiction. I've provided lectures at recovery centers in regards to relationship dynamics as well as LGBTQIA+ education, and was a panelist on the subject of "Imposter Syndrome" for the 2020 Assemblage- focusing on women and diverse communities in business. I earned my master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling with a focus on addiction and social justice at the Lewis and Clark Graduate School of Education and Counseling and am able to see clients who reside in Oregon, and Maine.
I believe therapeutic relationship is one where collaboration is essential to helping you on your path to growth and self-actualization. I'm passionate about helping people explore their needs and find their voice. It would be an privilege to join you on your journey.
