What I Specialize In

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 14 years of experience providing evidence-based mental health care to individuals and families. My clinical focus includes Perinatal Mental Health (Pregnancy and Postpartum), Trauma Therapy, and OCD. I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) and specialize in supporting clients through the emotional challenges associated with pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, fertility issues, and early parenting. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just not like yourself, know that you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to stay this way. Whether you're in the thick of postpartum, preparing for birth, coping with loss, or just trying to hold it all together, I’m here to help. Feel free to reach out!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Whether you realize it or not, there are unique aspects of who you are today that work in your favor: your life experience, your skills, your belief system, perhaps even your ethnicity or family history. We will identify these and use them as resources to help you heal. I also believe that therapy is a two-way-street. We will meet each other halfway, each of us actively participating in the process, to reach our shared goal of overcoming your challenges, whatever they may be. A cognitive behavioral approach is one that takes into account how your thoughts affect the way you feel about yourself, other and the world. And how these affect your behavior. Together, we will create a treatment plan that best fits your needs, goals and personal style.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) External link

    Together, we create a treatment plan that best fits your needs and goals. I use a collaborative, strength approach that include a family-systems, cognitive behavioral framework. I use a wide range of interventions depending on your personal style, age and interests.

  • EMDR External link

    EMDR can help you heal and move on with your life. With EMDR therapy you can really put your past behind and start enjoying your present, feel safe and more calm.

  • Mindfulness-based External link

    Mindfulness-based interventions can help you regulate your nervous system, feel calm in your body and stay grounded.

  • Anger Management Therapy External link

    Anger management therapy can help you connect with yourself, your needs and your feelings and find alternative ways to heal and cope.

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Postpartum External link

    As winter sets in and the school year ramps up, many Portland moms feel exhausted, anxious, or not like themselves while juggling kids, routines, and responsibilities. You’re not alone. I’m a Portland-based therapist (LMFT, PMH-C) with 14+ years of experience in mental health. Now, specializing in Postpartum Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, and OCD. Together, we’ll ease overwhelm, lift your mood, and help you feel grounded, supported, and more like yourself again.

  • Pregnancy (Prenatal Mental Health) External link

  • PTSD External link

    Memories, nightmares, and stress may intrude into your daily life, making it hard to sleep, focus, or feel safe around certain people or situations. You deserve to feel grounded, confident, and able to enjoy the present. EMDR therapy can help you move forwards with your life. Reach Out!

  • Panic External link

    If panic and anxiety spike as the holidays approach—juggling gifts, gatherings, and nonstop mom duties—therapy can help you breathe again. Portland’s dark, rainy winter often makes overstimulation and overwhelm even worse. I’m a Portland-based therapist (LMFT, PMH-C) specializing in pregnancy and postpartum anxiety, panic attacks, and trauma. Together we’ll build tools to calm your body, ease racing thoughts, and help you get through the season with more steadiness and support.

  • OCD External link

    If you’re racing through Portland’s rainy holiday season trying to make Christmas perfect for your kids while intrusive thoughts, worry loops, or “what if” fears won’t stop, you’re not alone. OCD often gets louder during stressful, high-pressure times—especially for moms who put themselves last. As a Portland, OR therapist (LMFT, PMH-C) specializing in perinatal OCD and anxiety, I help you quiet the mental noise, break out of compulsive cycles, and feel more grounded, present, and in control.
