People who work with me are often in a liminal space, coming in for work around themes of death, dying, grief, fear, anxiety, confusion, anger, trauma, and a sense of being checked out from the fullness of life. They feel the tension between remaining where they are and the desire to expand into more.
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.
Loss or Grief
Next Workshop: Saturday, June 13, 2026 You are invited to honor the fullness of your inner life at the height of the light. Through creating personal altars with clay, we'll explore joy, growth, intention, and the quieter presence of grief. Working with clay offers a grounding and restorative process that supports reflection, expression, and gentle healing. https://sellwood-community-house.jumbula.com/2026Spring/SummerSolsticeAltarsHoldingGriefJoy
