I’m a Professional Counseling Associate seeing clients in Oregon.

I specialize in working with creative individuals, both those who have an active creative practice and those who like to think outside of the box. I know that each person navigates an intersection of oppressive systems and I give them space to bring their specific perspectives and identities into the therapeutic relationship. By honoring clients' innate resiliency and collaborating to develop relevant and effective treatment plans, I aim to meet each client where they are at and join them on their unique path to healing.

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, OCD, relationship challenges, and the struggles associated with being an artist. You can expect me to be kind, thoughtful, curious, and open minded. I use creativity in therapy and draw upon theoretical frameworks such as CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness and parts work.

I work with individuals who are relatively stable and able to engage in weekly outpatient therapy. I am not the best fit for those currently navigating active suicidal thoughts, psychosis, or frequent crises, and I recommend connecting with providers who specialize in crisis stabilization or more intensive levels of care.

I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Antioch University in 2024 and a Master’s in Painting from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2015. I spent many years working in creative industries and academic environments. When I’m not playing music or painting, I enjoy cooking, projecting movies on the wall, reading, and walking with friends.
