I have practiced and been certified in equine-assisted psychotherapy and ecotherapy through working at a nature based therapy center in Canby, Oregon.

About Me:
I was born and raised in North Carolina, and I moved to Oregon in 2015. Outside of working as a therapist, I am an artist with painting as my primary medium. I have two sweet cats, Gustavo and Marcel.
Treatment Orientation & Philosophy:
I approach psychotherapy through an existential-humanistic perspective, meaning that I will
explore with you who you are and your place and purpose in life. I will help you to understand
internal motivations and unique personal qualities that guide your decision making and
relationship patterns, with the goal to support you to move in a direction that aligns with your
values and the development of a healthy self concept, supportive environment, and positive
relationships.
I believe that as we grow in health, we learn to trust ourselves, and we begin to cultivate an
environment that promotes the natural progression of our growth. The changes we make rarely
come easily, but the rewards are worth the journey that lasts a lifetime. I know that as we
engage in this process of moving towards the level of health that we desire, we are able to
experience the pleasure of supporting others to do the same.
As a therapist, I utilize a trauma informed approach. Emphasis in therapy is on boundaries,
honesty, self knowledge, personal responsibility, and acceptance. I aim to support my clients to build skills such as nonviolent communication, meditation, and other self-soothing strategies and relationship-building skills to to promote individual psychological health, physiological health (including a regulated nervous system), and collective health in relationships and community.
