Seeking counseling takes courage. But it can be a remarkable journey towards a new life. My goal as a counselor is to compassionately help my clients develop insight, courage, acceptance, resiliency, and the ability to live the joyful, meaningful life that they seek. In my counseling practice, I use an integrative approach, often with a mindfulness-based focus.
Mindfulness is an "awareness that arises through paying attention, on purpose, in the present moment, non-judgmentally." It has helped many of my clients through the difficulties that life often presents. I use other approaches as well, depending on what my clients' needs are, and what is most naturally comfortable for them.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the State of Oregon, having completed my Master's degree in social work at Portland State University. In my current private counseling practice, I work with adult individuals and couples. In a private mental health clinic, I counseled men and women individually as well as in groups and as couples.
The very foundation of therapy is the therapeutic relationship that is established between a client and a therapist. In our meetings together, I will always strive to create an environment where there is trust, support, acceptance, and safety - for you to freely talk about yourself, your life challenges, as well as your hopes and dreams.
