Depression is a mental health disorder that affects mood, including how you feel, think, and behave. Everyone feels sad sometimes, but when it starts to affect your ability to perform daily tasks and your ability to enjoy things that typically bring you happiness, you may be suffering from depression. The symptoms of depression vary from person to person, but often include feeling miserable without a clear reason why, anxiety, agitation, insomnia or sleeping too much, hopelessness, changes in eating, and/or foggy thinking. Depression may also cause recurrent thoughts of death or suicide (or even a wish that it would all 'stop' in an abstract sense). If you think you might be suffering from depression, a qualified mental health therapist can help. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s depression experts today!

I work best with folks who may be struggling with relationships or want to change their thought patterns to improve self worth. If your stuck at a crossroads in life, we can examine your options and find a path forward. I help individuals develop a greater understanding of themselves and others to improve their relationships. We all have experiences that may cause us to have negative beliefs about ourselves. We can work to let go of those beliefs and embrace and develop your strengths.
I enjoy working with late diagnosed neurodivergent adults, parents, people learning to feel their emotions, and those wanting to make a large life change. I also enjoy working with teens who need a safe space to figure out who they are as they adjust to adulthood.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

As an EMDR trained and IFS informed clinician, my specialty is the treatment of PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety and dissociative disorders in adults and adolescents. I strive to create a calming, safe space and have a more gentle approach, though I will challenge you to do very hard work at a pace that feels safe for you. Compassion, curiosity, and mindfulness are some of my favorite tools.

From just entering high school to graduating from your grad degree program, or navigating independence - there is so much to process in our emerging adulthood. You are worth listening to.

Clients find me when worried their trauma will affect parenting. They come after violating or confusing births or while planning the impossibly 'perfect’ birth. Some arrive postpartum- feeling trapped, sad, anxious, & resentful (and then ashamed by their feelings). Folx show up feeling wildly reactive despite heroic efforts to chill, or when realizing that parenting pokes at every wound they didn’t even know they carried. Therapists come to shore up when worn down by life as a parent & healer.

My typical clients seeking assessments are late-diagnosed adults who are on a quest for self-discovery within the realm of neurodivergence. Many have faced the frustration of previous misdiagnoses, while others carry a hunch based on their own research or discussions with peers. This diverse group consists of individuals who range from being comfortable with self-diagnosis to those who yearn for the validation and precision that a professional assessment can provide.

the solution of the problem is always an individual one," wrote CG Jung. We can address whatever is causing you distress, including social or interpersonal behavior patterns that have not been working, or family of origin issues. I will help you to assimilate and integrate the problems, and/or otherwise painful emotions. Together we will help you move toward psychological wholeness and spiritual integrity.
I work with adults of all ages who are wanting to create sustainable change on their path to achieving authenticity and wholeness. I believe each individual possess their own unique strengths and knowledge that they can access to overcome obstacles and embrace life transitions.

Asking for help is one of the most challenging things to do for ourselves, but it is one of the best ways of self-investing. When we physically do not feel well, we reach out to our doctors or nurses for support because we think that is normal. When we do not feel well mentally, it can give us a sense of not feeling normal, and while everyone's story is different, it is the same because we all have one.

You may feel entrenched in old, ineffective patterns that are difficult to break. You may feel confused or directionless due to unexpected crisis. You may be adjusting to a change in your physical, mental, or social abilities. Or you may feel that something is wrong without even knowing what the problem is. I provide mental health counseling for individuals in the Portland area so they can navigate these kinds of transitions and answer their inner call for change.
In both my work and personal life, I firmly believe in the benefits of therapy and the ability to integrate our challenges into our lives to create new and healthy dynamics. I am warm, creative, affirming, and direct as a therapist. I believe personal growth is a collaborative endeavor that requires caring, free from judgment. I work with teenagers and young adults (ages 15 - 26) challenged with co-occuring mental health and substance use disorders.
