I view therapy as a collaborative process that allows clients to explore the internal conflicts, relational patterns, and life experiences that shape their current struggles. My approach integrates psychodynamic therapy with cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness-based interventions, as appropriate, and is always tailored to the unique needs of the individual. I am particularly interested in how early experiences, unconscious processes, and core beliefs influence one’s emotional life and relationships in the present.
In my work, I strive to provide a safe, thoughtful space where clients can reflect on their inner world, examine longstanding patterns, and develop greater self-understanding. I believe that through this process of exploration, clients can achieve lasting personal growth and greater alignment between their values and goals.
Before entering the field of counseling, I spent over a decade in public relations and marketing. That professional path provided valuable experience, but ultimately led me to pursue work that felt more connected to my enduring interest in human development and psychological well-being.
I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in both Alabama and Oregon. I am currently pursuing a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology at Pacific University in Hillsboro, Oregon. My clinical experience includes work with adults and adolescents addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relational difficulties, life transitions, and career challenges. In addition, I completed clinical training in the UAB Psycho-Oncology Residency Program, where I provided counseling to patients and families navigating cancer diagnoses and the complex emotional challenges that accompany serious medical illness.
