Grief counselors and therapists in Bend, OR

I'm an LCSW with expertise in brain and behavior and additional specialty in addiction

I’m warm, down-to-earth, and genuinely invested in the people I work with. I want therapy to feel like a safe, comfortable conversation where you can show up exactly as you are—even on the days when you don’t quite know what to say.

I use empathy, honesty, and humor in my sessions, and I’m not afraid to be direct when I think it will help you grow. I’ll validate what you’re feeling, but I’ll also gently challenge you to look at patterns, consider different perspectives, and recognize the things that may be keeping you stuck. I’m not the kind of therapist who will simply nod for an hour while you do all the work.

I believe you are the expert on your own life. My job is to listen, help you make sense of what you’re experiencing, and give you practical tools to create meaningful change. We can talk about the hard things, celebrate the wins, laugh when we need to, and work together toward helping you feel more like the person you want to be.

I am an outcome-driven therapist who will work with you to start feeling like your best self. If you feel like you are stuck in the same patterns that aren’t working anymore, I will help you to explore new ways of approaching goals and relationship patterns and actually implement them into your daily life. I have over 10 years working in healthcare settings including 7 years in clinical mental health settings. Outside of therapy sessions, I enjoy being in nature, spending time with my dog, running, cycling, and creative pursuits.
