hello and welcome!
I'm Jackie, and I offer therapy to individuals and couples in Oregon.
​It isn’t always easy to reach out for help, but I’m so glad you’re considering taking that brave step. You’re in the right place. Let’s talk more.

As a therapist, my passion is working with individuals and couples navigating conception, pregnancy, and postpartum concerns - with a particular focus on the process known as matrescence: the physical, emotional, relational, and identity shifts that accompany becoming a mother. I believe that this transition should be held with reverence, care, and most importantly, support - for you, your relationship, your baby, your body, your spirit, and your identity.

I work with individuals contemplating parenthood, navigating their relationships with their families of origin and intergenerational inheritances, moving through conception, pregnancy and birth, and navigating postpartum. I enjoy supporting couples through all of these stages as well, helping you and your partner plan for pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting with intention, build stronger communication and relationship skills, explore themes from your families-of-origin as you build your own family, and prepare your bond for the beautiful but often challenging shifts that come with new parenthood. I'm supportive of the many varied shapes that family can take and honor that diversity in all its forms.

In addition to working with perinatal clients and couples, I also specialize in grief and loss, family of origin wounds, and relationship and intimacy challenges more generally.
