As a therapist, I'm down-to-earth, welcoming, and creative. I believe in radical self-compassion and acceptance, and in meeting you where you are without judgment. I honor where you’ve been because there is a lot of wisdom you’ve cultivated throughout your life, even if it doesn’t always feel that way. I trust and highlight your unique insights and I bring gentle, encouraging challenge to areas where you might feel stuck. I'm interested in dreams, archetypes, stories, and legends as frameworks and vehicles for healing, self-understanding, and meaning-making, and love to incorporate these aspects into therapy work. I'm a psychodynamic therapist who sees the therapeutic relationship and what occurs within it as paramount, and within that frame, the specific modalities I work with most often are parts work/IFS-informed, Jungian, and Narrative approaches for individuals, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Gottman with couples.

Outside of being a therapist, I'm a mom, a writer, and a photographer. In my off-time you'll find me hanging out with my daughter and partner, attempting to make progress on the stack of books on my nightstand, traveling to new places, making art, cooking, and spending time in nature.

Education, Training, and Credentials

I'm a registered Marriage and Family Therapist Associate in the state of Oregon (R8044) with a masters degree in Marriage, Couple, & Family Therapy from Lewis & Clark College. I have specialized training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International, as well as completing introductory training in the Within & Without Therapeutic Mindful Photography method for grief. I also am trained in the Four Blinks version of the Flash technique, to treat and process trauma. I have been working with clients since 2021 and have worked with children and adolescents, families, couples, and individuals across the age spectrum, both in community mental health settings and in private practice. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in the nonprofit world and volunteered working in emergency shelter with women and children fleeing domestic violence. I am supervised by Jessica Thomas, Ph.D, LMFT.
