My Approach to Helping

I have undergone numerous trainings in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and collaborative problem solving (CPS) and meet with a consultant weekly to ensure model fidelity. I’ve found these to be extremely helpful tools but of course everyone is different. For that reason, I work to adapt a unique approach depending on the client’s wants and needs. In general, I try to build a strong genuine relationship where people can feel safe and understood.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I hold a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Lewis and Clark College. My undergraduate work was in psychology and creative writing and I have been passionate about personal development and mentorship for over twelve years. I have five years’ experience working with individuals across a wide spectrum of presenting concerns. My practice is further backed by extensive academic study of counseling theories, trauma informed care, psychopharmacology, couples counseling and substance abuse.
