I have been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2014, driven by a lifelong fascination with human psychology and guided by my own innate sensitivity. Early on, I realized that having a "sensitive heart" in a fast-paced world can often feel overwhelming. I naturally gravitated toward helping individuals who feel deeply, overthink constantly, or worry that they simply "feel too much."
My Approach to Therapy I believe that effective therapy must adapt to your real life. Your schedule, your comfort, and your unique lived experience. Over the last decade of serving clients across Oregon and Utah, I’ve learned that meaningful change doesn't happen through rigid protocols; it happens through collaborative partnership and tailored care.
To support your growth, I draw from a diverse toolkit:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): To help process difficult past experiences so they lose their emotional charge.
CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy): To identify and shift the intrusive self-doubt and anxious thought loops holding you back.
DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy): To build actionable skills for emotional regulation, grounding, and managing distress in real time.
Expressive Arts Therapy: To offer a creative outlet when traditional words aren't quite enough to articulate what you’re feeling.
Whether we meet virtually through secure telehealth or face-to-face in the office, our sessions are a non-judgmental safe haven. Together, we will translate your sensitivity from a source of overload into your greatest strength, moving you toward clarity, confidence, and lasting relief.
