I believe that you are the expert on your life and experience. As your therapist, I will help you make the positive changes you are motivated to explore as we work together in this therapeutic relationship. I have a wide range of experience in helping individuals and families find solutions to life challenges using a variety of therapeutic tools including Person Centered, Emotional Freedom Techniques, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy), and Trauma Focused Therapy. My strength based approach encourages you to achieve your full potential toward a productive and meaningful life and positive and fulfilling relationships. Remember, you are the expert, I am here to facilitate the changes that you want to make.
I received my BS in Psychology from the University of Alaska Fairbanks and completed a Master’s Degree in Community Psychology with a Clinical Focus on that campus as well. I’ve been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2008. I have hours of specialized training for individuals and their supports who live with Fetal Alcohol. I also have hours of Trauma Treatment Training.
On a personal note: I followed my adult children to Oregon after a lifetime in Interior Alaska. I love spending time with family and being in nature, especially the beautiful Oregon Coast. Paper crafting and sewing are activities I enjoy in my free time.
