My therapeutic approach is deeply relational, grounded in compassion, and informed by evidence-based practices including EMDR, IFS, trauma-focused CBT, DBT, ACT, Motivational Interviewing, and Health at Every Size (HAES). I view emotions as important signals—clues pointing us toward deeper understanding and healing. I believe that through the acceptance of our emotional experiences, we can begin to ease suffering and uncover meaning even in life’s most painful moments.

 

In addition to my clinical work, I am a state-approved licensed clinical supervisor in Oregon. I provide supervision to associate therapists working toward licensure, supporting them in developing their clinical skills, deepening their professional identity, and navigating the complexities of therapeutic work with confidence and integrity.

 

As a therapist and supervisor, I see myself as a guide—walking alongside others as they explore, grow, and move toward meaningful and sustainable change.”
