Therapy for Connection, Healing & Change

Individual and couples therapy in Portland, Oregon and virtually throughout Oregon and California

There are times when life can leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about what comes next. Therapy can offer a space to slow down, make sense of what you're experiencing, and reconnect with the parts of yourself and your life that matter to you.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process. Together, we can explore the patterns, relationships, experiences, and stories that shape how you see yourself and your life, while reconnecting with your strengths, values, and sense of purpose. My role is to offer thoughtful guidance and support while creating a space where you can be honest, curious, and fully yourself.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I have experience working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. I am particularly drawn to helping clients navigate grief and loss, relationship concerns, sexuality and intimacy, trauma, parenthood, and periods of significant change.


My work often includes:

  • People experiencing disconnection in romantic, family, and other relationships

  • Couples and individuals exploring sexuality, intimacy, and sexual preferences

  • People facing grief and loss

  • Parents navigating the demands of career, creativity, and family life

  • People moving through periods of change, uncertainty, or major life transitions

  • Artists and creatives

  • People affected by trauma

FAQ

Do you offer virtual sessions?

I offer virtual sessions throughout Oregon and California, as well as in-person sessions for clients in Portland, Oregon.

What is your fee?

My fee is $250 per 50-minute session. Typically, I see clients weekly until their treatment goals have been reached, but I work collaboratively with clients to determine a timeframe that fits their needs. I also offer a limited number of sliding-scale options and aim to find a therapy fee that works for both of us. Fees can be discussed over the phone prior to our first meeting.

What is the first step?

After you contact me by email or phone, we can set up an initial phone consultation to discuss your needs, experiences with previous therapy, and the areas you'd like to address. We can determine together whether I would be a good match for you and, if so, schedule a first session. This consultation is free of charge.
