Relational. Real. Experienced.
Whether you are looking for a therapist, a clinical supervisor or a consultant I hope to provide the support that you need.
I have spent a lot of time in my career counseling children, adolescents and adults. I see couples too! Im an experienced clinician with a developmental psychology lens.
I am personally interested in resilience and have studied and taught and wrestled with this concept for a lifetime.
I spend a lot of my time training around cultural considerations as an counselor and am not afraid to bring in socio-political awareness to our time together. I am a cultural relational counselor and have trained in many types of therapy over my lifetime and use many of those approaches in my work.
I love to use creative and expressive arts in my counseing and supervision work and look forward to sharing some projects with you or new ways of thinking about your practice.
A little about me:
Im a third generation therapist from a white, middle-class family. I grew up all over the country in New Mexico, the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia), Seattle and finally landed here in Portland. I am a life long educator and learner & I am a married, queer woman. I have spent my career working with people on the margins. I tend to work with a lot of clients who grew up with trauma or who grew up without the resources that they needed.
I LOVE MAKING ART of every kind and if you work with me, we will be sure to share a laugh, even when things are the hardest.
I run groups for Associates who are working toward their licensure
I provide supervision of supervision and have a group for supervisors
I provide consultation for clinicians in any phase of the work.
I enjoy helping clinicians who have been working for a while and have fallen into some bad habits- let me help you get back to feeling excited about this work. Lets resolve concerns you have and get back online!
Send me an email if you are interested in working with me and we can see if we would be a good fit.
