I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels safe, collaborative, and deeply human. My style is warm, compassionate, and direct, and I work to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being gently challenged toward growth. I draw from an integrative, holistic framework that includes psychodynamic exploration, systems therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, EMDR, and humanistic-existential approaches. This allows me to tailor therapy to your unique needs, whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, attachment wounds, emotional dysregulation, burnout, self-worth concerns, or major life transitions. I have worked extensively with individuals facing complex trauma, personality-related challenges, adoption, migration, and recovery from human and sexual trafficking. For organizations, I also provide Mental Health and Psychosocial Support services.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience helping children, families and adults navigate life's challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution-focused, and I tailor therapy to each client's unique strengths and goals. I also have experience supporting individuals coping with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns and complex medical challenges, helping them build practical skills and create meaningful, lasting change. I especially enjoy working with adults, including women who are pregnant, postpartum or adjusting to motherhood.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree in Couples and Family Therapy. I have extensive experience working with children, teens, adults, and families across a range of concerns. My specialties include anxiety disorders, trauma and PTSD, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, and child and adolescent therapy with parent coaching. I enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, navigate difficult emotions, and build healthier relationships and coping strategies.
As your therapist, you will find that I am warm, compassionate and direct. You'll quickly see that I am not here to judge you and am here to support you to explore yourself and your beliefs. Over time, we'll work together to rewrite stories that are no longer serving you. I will help you feel empowered to come back to feeling content and like you're treating yourself with the kindness that you show other people. I have worked in a variety of settings, including outpatient, community mental health, community college and private practice. I have over 10 years of experience providing therapy to help adults and adolescents feel better within themselves.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Portland
Finding postpartum therapists in Portland starts with knowing which kind of support matches your needs. Postpartum concerns can include more than depression, such as postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also search for a therapist for postpartum depression, a postpartum depression counselor, or a prenatal depression therapist. As you compare options, look for therapists who list perinatal mental health, postpartum support, or the Perinatal Mental Health Certification, known as PMH-C, in their profile.
Portland has many therapists across neighborhoods like Northeast Portland, Southeast Portland, and downtown, which can make the search feel broad at first. For new parents, practical fit matters too. An unpredictable schedule, infant care, physical recovery, and commute time can shape whether in-person or virtual therapy works better. Review each therapist’s bio for details on appointment availability, therapy style, experience with therapy for new moms, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before you book.
Therapy in Portland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before starting care. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, so you can compare fit, coverage, and availability in one place.
