Many people start therapy because they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—from themselves, their relationships, or their life. You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, relationship issues, emotional disconnection, burnout, or patterns you can’t seem to change, therapy can help you understand what’s going on beneath the surface and create meaningful, lasting change.

I use an integrative, emotion-focused approach grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), attachment theory, and nervous system regulation (polyvagal theory).

This means we don’t just talk about problems—we work with the emotional patterns, past experiences, and internal dynamics that shape how you feel and relate to others.

I have experience and love doing the work of:

• Couples therapy and marriage counseling

• Discernment counseling (for couples who believe they are on the brink of a divorce/breakup and need guidance on whether or not to end things or what steps would need to happen to reconcile. If a breakup is chosen as the right path, I also help couples do so with love, respect, and loving boundaries for healthy co-existence as co-parents or friends!)

• Childhood trauma and attachment issues and how they impact people’s relationships today and their ability to cope, regulate, and feel their emotions

• Parts work or inner child work to help heal childhood trauma

• Anxiety, burnout, emotional disconnection, and poor self-care

• Nervous system regulation

• Learning to navigate neurodivergence with the self or in relationships

• Sex and intimacy issues

• Overthinking and intellectualizing everything

• Skills and tools for personal growth in mental, emotional, physical, and relational health

• “Fixing your picker” - meaning helping to understand what unhealthy patterns you repeat in relationships, choosing the wrong partners or wrong relationships, and how to improve your ability to attract and pick healthy, secure partners and build healthy, secure, long-lasting relationships

My work focuses on helping you build emotional awareness and nervous system regulation, improve your relationships, and feel more connected and secure in your body and with yourself.

I currently only offer online therapy, available throughout Oregon.

Online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions and offers flexibility and accessibility.

Couples therapy is a collaborative process where we work to understand the patterns you and your partner get stuck in—especially during conflict or disconnection.

Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and deepening emotional and physical intimacy.

Rather than assigning blame, we help both partners feel heard, understood, and more connected.

Therapy is not a quick fix—it’s a process of deeper, lasting change.

The length of therapy depends on your goals, but many clients work with me over several months and sometimes for years to fully understand and shift long-standing emotional and relational patterns.

I work with both individuals and couples.

Individual therapy focuses on your internal experience—your emotions, patterns, and self-relationship—while couples therapy focuses on the dynamic between you and your partner.

This is very common—especially for people who are insightful and self-aware.

In therapy, we gently work to move beyond intellectual understanding and into emotional experience. This helps you not just understand your patterns, but actually shift them.

We go at a pace that feels manageable, building your ability to connect with and process emotions over time.

Trauma-informed therapy recognizes that past experiences—especially overwhelming or painful ones—can shape how your nervous system, emotions, and relationships function today.

Our work focuses on creating safety, building emotional regulation, and processing experiences in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming or re-traumatizing.

Attachment-based therapy explores how your early relationships with caregivers influence how you connect with others as an adult.

Understanding your attachment patterns can help explain challenges with intimacy, trust, and communication—and give you a path toward more secure, fulfilling relationships.

Yes. Therapy is confidential, with a few legal exceptions (such as risk of harm to yourself or others), which we’ll review together at the start of our work.

Finding the right therapist is about fit.

You want someone you feel comfortable with, understood by, and able to build trust with over time. The relationship between therapist and client is one of the most important parts of successful therapy.

I offer consultations so you can get a sense of whether working together feels like a good fit.

Therapy can help you:

• Understand your emotions and patterns

• Improve communication and relationships

• Heal from trauma and past experiences

• Reduce anxiety and emotional overwhelm

• Build self-trust and confidence

• Feel more connected and fulfilled

Getting started is simple.

You can reach out to schedule a consultation, where we’ll talk about what’s bringing you in, what you’re looking for, and whether working together feels like the right fit.
