You can expect warmth, laughter, tears, and curiosity in our sessions.
I provide online counseling to individuals 14yo+ in both Oregon & Washington state struggling with self-esteem issues, anxiety, life transitions, emotional abuse, identity questions, grief and loss, and depression. Clients who work well with me are prepared to commit to personal growth and healing by showing up for themselves.
At the heart of my process, I use sensitive-inquiry and mindfulness-based practices to nudge you toward an integrated relationship with yourself. I will encourage you to feel deeply, tune into the physical sensations of your emotions, and find meaning-making systems. Self-compassion is a primary emphasis in my work. My approach involves empathically engaging with your past, present, and future to increase self-empowerment and identify new paths toward thriving. The process of therapy is a collaboration between the client and clinician, but you will be the ultimate agent of change in your life.
Outside of my practice as a therapist, I love spending time outdoors, with friends, crafting, reading, playing with my dog, and enjoying good food and coffee.
