Psychotherapy for stressed out parents and other human beings.

I provide heart-centered therapy to individuals and couples in the Silverton/Mid-Valley Region of Oregon. I love my work and feel passionate about helping people make positive changes in their lives. My speciality is working with new parents coping with postpartum stressors and mental health issues. I also work with clients facing a variety of common concerns such as low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship conflict.   

Approach

I believe all people have the ability to overcome difficult obstacles in their lives and move toward a state of health. I see each person as an expert in their own life and work collaboratively with clients to deepen self-awareness and connect them to their capacity for inner guidance. I believe connection is the key to healthy living, connection to ourselves, one another and our environment. My approach seeks to provide opportunities to deepen these important connections.

Maternal Mental Health

Parenting is one of the most challenging experiences we face in our lives. It can be a source of both our deepest joy and most painful suffering. The process of becoming a new parent is permanently life-altering and can challenge us in ways we never predicted. Whether you're experiencing postpartum depression and anxiety or more mild growing pains associated with becoming a parent, help is available.
