Do you feel like you're always falling short of your own expectations? Maybe things came easily to you as a kid, but now you're having a hard time adjusting to life as an adult. It might feel like no matter how much research or self-analysis you do, you aren't making progress. If you feel anxious, stuck, and uncertain - you're not alone. I specialize in working with highly-motivated adults who struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, and complex trauma. Safety and trust are the foundation for he...
As both a licensed professional counselor and a licensed massage therapist, I deeply value the strength of a holistic approach to healing that incorporates the mind, the body, and the spirit. I am interested in the meaning we make about our experiences, how these beliefs crystalize into our physical form, and the divinity in all of us that transcends our personalities. I have seen time and time again that the deepest pain can be transformed into the compost of our most profound joys and spiritu...
I spent 25 years in the education system, so I know firsthand how college can be an exciting, wonderful time or an incredibly isolating experience. On top of schoolwork (which that alone can be enormously stressful), you might have work, personal goals, relationship problems, family stress, pets, roommate problems, all at a time when you really want to focus on figuring out who you are and what you want your future to be like. The modern university system is not set up to produce happy, well-adj...

Hi! I’m a board certified psychiatrist in Portland. I'm experienced in several types of psychotherapy, primarily psychodynamic, supportive, and dialectical behavior therapy (I don't offer standard DBT in my solo practice, since that requires a team approach). Besides individual therapy, I also offer psychiatric eval/management to folx already in therapy, as well as second opinion and psychopharm consults. My clinical approach (both meds and therapy) is an individualized and thoughtful one, and I...
I’m a licensed professional counselor working with individuals and couples. My style is laid back, collaborative, and incorporates evidence-based practices in an approach to healing, learning life skills, and self-discovery. I believe this leads us to live healthy, fulfilling, and meaningful lives. Working with both individuals and couples, my expertise lies in anxiety, divorce and relationship issues as well as working with those going through life transitions or interested in personal or pr...
My style is warm, direct and collaborative. I aim to identify patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating that limit one’s ability to pursue their goals. These patterns are often the legacy of successful coping at an earlier stage of life, but no longer serve one’s best interest. Exploring the underlying forces can open space to make new choices, grow, and alleviate suffering....
