Welcome to my practice. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in Oregon with over 20 years of experience helping individuals heal from their past, cope with present difficulties, discover their strengths, and move toward a healthier, more fulfilling future. My practice is grounded in humanistic & person-centered philosophies, predominantly Gestalt therapy and Compassion-Focused therapy. These approaches promote self-compassion, a reduction in suffering, emotional balance, and self-awareness of one’s present needs. Within this therapeutic framework, I use an integrative and collaborative approach that tailors evidence-based interventions with your unique needs and personal circumstances. Most importantly, I am committed to providing treatment that is inclusive, respectful, and non-pathologizing. I work to create a safe, nonjudgmental space for people to grow and heal by treating people as persons, not as problems.

With inclusion, equity & diversity as foundational values, I strive to offer culturally relevant care and am a BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and non-binary affirming provider.
