You might be struggling with conditions like anxiety, depression, grief or addictions. I get it; many of us face unprecedented pressures and stressors today. I know how important it is for you to have open, genuine conversations where you feel truly heard and understood. After completing my MSW degree at the University of Kansas, I began practicing and have been licensed for 23 years. I have advanced training in Mindful Self Compassion therapy.

I understand grief, addiction and general overload from personal experience. Having navigated many difficult issues, it is my pleasure to help others navigate their own struggles. I offer online appointments throughout the week and in person appointments in Beaverton on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. I look forward to working with you for solutions.

I've built my career working in adult medicine, with a deep focus on addiction and medication assisted treatment. Anxiety and depression are areas where I find this work especially rewarding. Regardless of what brings you here, I come to every session with genuine curiosity and a commitment to building real rapport. I see clients virtually, and I keep afternoon and evening hours on weekdays so scheduling can work around your life. Strong patient retention has always been a hallmark of how I practice, and I look forward to building that same kind of relationship with you.
