Specialties
I utilize PACT (Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy) in my work with couples. This approach combines developmental neuroscience, attachment theory, and arousal regulation. PACT supports couples toward a new way of engaging. When secure functioning is the foundation of our partnerships we are able to expand in profound and satisfying ways, not only in our partnerships and families, but out into the world.
Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a bilateral eye movement therapy that utilizes memory reconsolidation and voluntary image replacement to help us get unstuck and expand.. Most people require 1-5 sessions to process specific events. This is not an ongoing treatment; these are integration and expansion sessions. Many folks come in to do a few ART sessions while working with another long-term therapist.
Anxiety, Loss or Grief
This small, virtual support group (6–8 participants) offers a focused space to process the grief, anxiety, and loss connected to climate change and the uncertainty of our shared future. Alongside honoring pain and overwhelm, we’ll also explore possibility, meaning-making, and practices of joy and hope. Grounded in empathy and community, this group invites participants to let their grief move them into connection, courage, and care. Open to adult residents of Oregon and Washington.
