My Approach
I work with individuals and couples to provide support, heighten awareness, and bring clarity to foster understanding and forward movement. I offer deep attunement, warmth, compassion, patience, and empathy. I offer in-person sessions at my office in SE Portland, as well as telehealth options to meet remotely. Using a process-oriented approach, we will explore unconscious patterns to bring understanding to yourself and your relationships, and notice what may be looking to shift in your life, and what support is needed at this time. In addition to talk therapy, I use a variety of methods including dream analysis, art making, role-play, and authentic movement. I also offer energy healing, auric reading, and mediumship. I work well with those who have had challenging relationships with their families, and I guide and hold space for those to nurture and heal their familial wounds.
My Background
I hold a Masters of Arts in Process-Oriented Facilitation and Conflict Studies from the Process Work Institute. I worked as a Community Therapist at River’s Way Community Clinic, 2018-2019, and have been working in private practice in Portland, OR, since 2019. I have 17 years experience in energy work, clairvoyance, and auric reading, completing two trainings in 2009 and 2010.
I founded the online magazine NAILED in 2012, and have published two poetry collections (Fall Ill Medicine (2012), and The Dots Don’t Connect (2003)).
