LOOKING FOR GUIDANCE?

I'M HERE TO HELP. 

There are times when we all need some extra support.   Are you stressed-out?  Do you have trouble sleeping?  Are you feeling anxious or depressed?  

Wondering why your relationships just don't work out?  Looking to change old habits that seem to make your life  unmanageable, but you're not sure how to begin?

Perhaps you've experienced a loss, or unexpected life event, that has left you feeling angry, hurt, sad, lonely, or confused.  

You may be hoping to get more enjoyment out of your life - to feel happier and healthier.   

DISCOVER FRESH SOLUTIONS AND LEARN A NEW WAY OF LIVING

Join me in a therapeutic partnership and we will work together - in a friendly, safe, comfortable, and confidential setting.

We will discuss your current needs and develop a personal plan designed to address your goals.  You may learn new coping skills and practical strategies to promote positive results for you. 

I am happy to assist you in this process - and to share with you my years of experience working with clients in the Portland area to address a variety of issues.

Change and healing come from within and without.  By actively participating in therapy, you can achieve greater self-understanding, self-mastery, and renewed energy to improve your quality of living. 

AN INVESTMENT IN YOU

You make a valuable investment, when you make a decision to begin counseling. You may find yourself both challenged and rewarded, as you open up to new opportunities, and as you explore possibilities for transformation and empowerment. 
   
The length of time that you will spend with me in counseling depends upon your needs.  You may choose to engage in short-term therapy - or find that you benefit by participating in longer-term counseling. 

If you have prior experience with a therapist, we will discuss what worked and what didn't - and how I can be most helpful and effective in providing my services to you. 

PROFESSIONAL AND EXPERIENCED
 
My approach to counseling is based upon a blend of Best Practices strategies that are client-centered and motivational - as well as solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral - centered upon your strengths and adapted to your unique needs. 

To enhance the therapeutic experience, I make use of Guided Visualization,  Hypnotherapy, and Relaxation techniques for my clients who wish to explore these options.

I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology, as well as National Certification and State Licensure as a Professional Counselor.  I am also a State and Nationally Certified Alcohol, Drug, and Gambling  Addictions Counselor. 

I participate in continuing education to maintain my level of expertise.  I abide by all ethical standards of my profession and licensure. 

MY SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE FOR:

INDIVIDUALS - COUPLES - GROUPS
DAYS - EVENINGS - SATURDAYS

You may be interested in scheduling Individual Sessions, exploring Couples Work, or looking for the additional support of a Group setting.  

I will be happy to discuss any of these options with you, to answer your questions, and to create a service plan that best suits your current needs.  

I combine my life and work experience with my professional background and training to provide quality services for you.
