About

We are in unprecedented challenging times that are filled with grief, confusion, and sorrow. Together we can allow ourselves to feel these truths and navigate how to deal with the overwhelm. You deserve compassion, support, and guidance. It will be great to work together to navigate the waves of the ocean of life.

My philosophy is that in every stage in life there is an opportunity for personal growth and acceptance of self. Together we will evaluate the options available to you, discuss how to navigate family dynamics, create appropriate plans and strategies, and learn about self-nourishment. Exploring and establishing healthy habits can help one find balance and feel success.

I can help you build healthy habits with yourself and others, and guide your journey to finding your own life’s meaning. Making sustainable positive changes and getting to deeply know oneself can provide powerful impacts throughout one’s life. By using an integrated psychotherapy approach and applying appropriate theories, methods, and techniques, this can assist you with leading your life in awareness, accepting of self and others, and creating more fulfilling relationships.

I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. I earned my B.A. in Psychology and Business from the University of Oregon. In 2011, I moved to Portland to be surrounded by the beautiful nature of the Pacific Northwest. After a career in Fundraising, I worked as an Activities Associate at a local nursing home which confirmed my passion in working with the older adult community. I earned my M.S in Counseling Education and a Certificate in Gerontology from Portland State University. Currently, I am only doing telehealth as I reside in Germany.

It would be an honor to work with you!
