My Approach to Helping

I have deep respect and compassion for those embarking on the journey of healing and self-growth. I believe therapy should be collaborative and I offer a safe presence that supports the process of change. My practice is an experiential, somatic, and mindful process that allows clients to safely explore their experience. Based on clients' individual needs, my approach draws from Neurobiology, Attachment Theory, Hakomi, EMDR (Trauma), and Family Systems. Throughout the process of therapy, the client and I will work to transform wounds and unhelpful patterns into resourced and empowered ways of being.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I moved to Portland, Oregon in 1998. I attended Portland State University and graduated with a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Early in my studies, I was fascinated with the ways in which the brain and body influence one another. This inspired my year-long internship at M.E.T.A., a mindful and somatic based clinic in Portland. I am trained in Attachment Therapy, Hakomi, ReCreation of the Self, and EMDR for healing trauma. My practice is also informed by neurobiology, which is the science behind how the brain and body coexist.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Hakomi External link

    I completed a year long internship at META (Mindful Experiential Therapeutic Approaches of Oregon) in which we were trained in Hakomi, and continued my practice to become a Certified Hakomi Therapist. Hakomi is a gentle, mindfulness-based therapy that helps you understand how your thoughts, emotions, and body patterns are connected. By slowing down and paying attention to present-moment experience, we explore beliefs and habits that may be shaping your life.

  • Attachment Theory External link

    I have been trained in Experiential Attachment Psychotherapy and PACT (Psychobiological Approach To Couples Therapy). Experiential attachment therapy focuses on how early relationships shape your patterns today. Through present-moment, relational experiences, we explore emotions, body responses, and connection, helping you build safer, more secure ways of relating to yourself and others.

  • Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) External link

    I have been trained in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy through Eagala. I work with individual adults and couples in this modality.

  • Somatic Therapy (Body Centered) External link

    Hakomi is a Somatic Based Practice, and I also have training in Somatic Experiencing as well as Polyvagal Therory
