Making the decision to start therapy is a profound investment of your time, energy, and vulnerability. If you are looking for a blank-slate clinician who simply nods and listens, we might not be the best fit. I offer a highly engaged, malleable, and unflinching partnership.
My approach is rooted in the belief that while the work of untangling our lives is deeply structural, the room itself doesn't always have to feel heavy. I bring a grounded warmth to my practice—which means knowing how to sit quietly in the gravity of a difficult truth, but also knowing when to break the tension, exhale, and find the light in the sheer complexity of being human. I won’t just sit in silence while you do all the heavy lifting; I am an active collaborator who adapts to exactly where you are.

I am accepting new patients of all ages, from children to adults, both for cash pay and insurance with same-day availability.

Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming at any stage—whether you’re navigating adolescence, adulthood, relationships, parenting, or the transitions that come with aging. Anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes can disrupt how you think, feel, and connect with others. Therapy offers a supportive place to slow down, feel understood, and develop effective tools to move forward with greater clarity, balance, and confidence.
Life doesn’t come with a roadmap—and when stress, anxiety, grief, or major changes pile up, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or alone. Therapy offers a place to slow down, feel understood, and begin finding your way forward with clarity and confidence.
I provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can explore what’s holding you back, build resilience, and reconnect with your inner strength. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change so you can feel more confident, grounded, and at peace.

I feel comfortable working with children, adolescents, and adults.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Oregon
Searching for therapists in Oregon starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want support with. Oregon has a wide range of therapists across urban and rural areas, and available options can vary by location. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with your concerns so you can choose someone whose training matches your needs.
Your search may look different in Portland, Eugene, Bend, or a smaller community. Some people prefer in-person sessions with a therapist nearby, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility or access to a broader set of Oregon therapists. Beyond specialty, it helps to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can also show how each person describes their approach, session style, and areas of focus before you book.
The cost of therapy in Oregon varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates before your first session. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your plan and location. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
