Practicing Since: 2002
When we have experienced difficult or traumatic events, those experiences can create beliefs about ourselves, our lives, and our potential for healing that can get stuck and hold us back from the changes we need to make. Your approach to things can be different. You will feel confident and trusting in yourself. When negative thoughts arise, they won’t feel like the absolute truth and you'll be able to combat them.
Specialties
My clients want to stop thinking about all their decisions, behaviors, and words so much. They want to stop comparing themselves to others and spending the day overanalyzing every action. Instead of looking for constant reassurance and ruminating about your decisions or past events, you are able to relax and be present with yourself and others. Clients who are most successful achieving this are the ones ready to work and willing to show up over and over again to face fears.
Insomnia
This is a six- week group that teaches cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). CBT-I is the recommended first-line treatment for chronic insomnia. The first session is virtual. To determine if this program is right for you, you will be invited to have a phone screening and assessment. Interested? Please reach out: birchwoodcounseling.net 503-433-6016 [email protected]

CPT will help you understand and shift the unhelpful thoughts/beliefs that stem from traumatic events. The objective is to help you change your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You will learn new ways of processing and coping with the trauma. During this group, you will NOT be discussing the details of your trauma. This treatment focuses on exploring and challenging the beliefs that were made during and after the trauma in order to “make sense” of it.
