I have worked in community mental health and social service agencies, providing program management and design, advocacy, case management, parenting support, counseling, and group therapy to adults, teens, children, and families. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oregon and Washington, D.C., and have been in private practice for over two decades, providing individual psychotherapy, play therapy, adolescent counseling, couples therapy, and parent consultation. I also offer clinical and business consultation to both seasoned and newer therapists who seek guidance on the ins and outs of private practice. I pursued a career as a therapist because I felt a natural inclination and ability to support people in navigating difficult times. I continue to be deeply curious about the human experience, which is both beautiful and heart-wrenching. I believe it’s important to explore both conscious and unconscious factors that impact relationships, mental health, and the healing process. I have a warm, compassionate approach, but I can also be direct and often use humor. I draw on both my professional training and life experience to create a space where clients can find greater self-regulation, develop healthier connections with themselves and others, gain new skills, and increase self-compassion. I love this work.
