I
hold a masters degree in professional mental health counseling from
Lewis & Clark College. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the
State of Oregon. My professional experience has brought me into contact
with a wide variety of people including adolescents as well as adults. I
specialize in supporting people struggling with difficult mood states,
and who are seeking to remove obstacles to their wellbeing. I am also a
Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor.
I grew up in a variety of places on both the east and west coast, and
now call Portland home. I bring my passion for mindfulness, meditation,
and making meaning in life into my work with clients. I believe in the
power of the therapeutic relationship and the potential for
transformation that can take place when attention, compassion, and
effort are focused on an individual.
I strive to be down to earth, nonjudgmental, and relatable.
