My work is grounded in acceptance, authenticity, compassion, creativity, trust, humor, and safety. Transformation can be messy, intimidating, confusing, and even scary. It can also be exciting and beautiful. I will support you through this journey to find healing and access to the kind of life you want to live. I see my role to be a facilitator, guide, and collaborator with you on your path to inner wisdom and self-discovery. I value building a strong therapeutic relationship from which we can explore that which no longer serves your well-being and develop skills and insights that do. I specialize in Restoration Therapy, mindfulness, gestalt and somatic practices, attachment, resilience, and self-compassion. 

I am currently pursuing a master's degree in mental health counseling at Naropa University. As a student of mindfulness and transpersonal studies, the modalities I offer support you to become more aware of thoughts and behaviors through such practices as mindful attunement, breathwork, and meditation techniques. I welcome spirituality of all kinds, and in session, we might explore dreams, higher power, mysticism, or other ways you find meaning. As a former environmental educator, I also deeply believe in the restorative powers of nature. Whether through adventure, play, gardening, or simply sitting by a creek - experiences in and with nature offer opportunities for us to come to a broader perspective and witness our resilience. My background, experience, and values weave together into a therapeutic approach that is embodied, curious, and creative. If this resonates with you, please reach out to set up a consultation.

In my spare time, you can find me exploring Oregon’s backcountry with my dog Sitka, reading a book by the creek, seeing live music, or slowly drinking a good cup of coffee, preferably in the mountains.
