Therapists in Salem, OR

My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and non judgmental environment in which one can develop insight, build healthy relationships, and accomplish desired goals. I see counseling as a collaborative process and my eclectic approach to therapy is tailored to meet your needs. I have over 15 years experience working with teens, children, adults, and families.

I see the therapeutic process as a collaborative journey. I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth and healing when given a safe and supportive environment and I endeavor to hold that space and listen deeply to each person's unique story. I work from a trauma-informed lens and engage in radical acceptance when it comes to supporting people on their journey. I am passionate about providing affirming and inclusive mental healthcare and specialize in working with individuals with the following identities (or those who are self-diagnosed or exploring) : Autistic, ADHD, Transgender, Gender Expansive, Queer and/or Disabled.

It is hard enough to ask for help when you know what is not working for you in life. It becomes increasingly more difficult when there is only pain and the source is unknown. I focus on helping you reach your therapeutic goals by listening and building our therapeutic relationship; and strive to create a safe environment for you to explore the source of your struggle and pain without judgment. I do this through a lens called Restoration Therapy by understanding the current pain cycle and helping you to establish a peace cycle.

Hello, and welcome. I'm so glad you're here looking at my profile. It takes a lot of courage to open ourselves, reveal our past, explore life experiences and bring our insecurities, worries and hopes out into the open. During my career, I've been privileged to work with a diverse population of clients ages 18-95, with experiences spanning the spectrum of mental health and life challenges. My approach is person centered, honoring that we're all different, and as such, have different needs. I believe judgment and shame create barriers to progress, and that looking within can bring to light insights and tools for growth and healing.

I believe that every person, regardless of diagnosis or past experiences, can lead purposeful and fulfilling lives with the proper support. We do the best with what we have, and too often life presents significant challenges we are forced to adapt to. Sometimes the patterns that were helpful to get through our childhood present major challenges later in life. Our symptoms do not make us abnormal and are not part of a fundamental flaw that needs fixing, they are a normal response to extraordinary circumstances. Problems do not exist within one person but are the result of a person’s context, family patterns, and learned behaviors.

Welcome! If you are here, then you have taken an important first step in prioritizing your mental health. When everything feels like a hot mess it can be overwhelming to know where to start taking better care of yourself. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space that allows for us to explore the reasons you are feeling stuck as well as uncovering your inner resilience. I draw from different treatment modalities that are rooted in both somatic and cognitive approaches. I am trained in IFS, EMDR, Clinical Hypnotherapy, CBT, and DBT. I have been practicing for 20 years with individuals & families.

Now accepting Aetna, Cigna, Optum, and Unitedhealthcare. Also Canopy/Cascade Centers EAP and Optum EAP. Accepting new clients! I have 7 years experience and specialized training to assist individuals struggling with pornography and out of control sexual behavior. I am also trained to use EMDR for clients struggling with trauma memories, PTSD, and panic attacks. I can assist clients in all other general mental health areas, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and conflict management.

Hello! In my years of experience, I have found that my primary method of working with others is to come from a person-centered point of view. We work together to better understand your point of view. I've worked with folks who struggle with anxiety and depression, life stressors, and those who may have a history of trauma. My goal is to come alongside you during your journey and help you discover ways to cope with what has been going on in your life, and to help you address any unhelpful patterns of thought or behavior that may, at times, get in the way of you achieving your personal goals.

I specialize in working with adults and children who experience trauma. Trauma can interrupt healthy development in the brain and body in profound ways, particularly during formative years. I can assess, diagnose, and intervene with mental health disorders, addictions, chronic stress, and crisis using treatment plans that target my client's unique goals. Risk assessment is an important aspect of trauma-informed care for clients with urges to harm themselves or others. I may involve my team of professional colleagues in treatment as needed, including LPCs, skills trainer, and yoga & movement instructor.

Is life getting you down? Are you struggling and don't know where to turn? Or maybe you just want someone to be on your side as things get rough. I welcome clients who need help to get things back on track, no matter what the concern. I welcome all clients who are interested in working through life, together with their therapist. I am here to offer you support and healing during life's good and rough times. I currently only see clients through telehealth.

Life has its challenges. Whether you're struggling with a specific problem, a personal issue, or challenges in your couple or family relationships, working with a caring and competent counselor may provide insight and new perspectives that lead to greater contentment, confidence and well-being. Sharing personal concerns may be difficult and challenging. You may find the confidential and professional help you need by working with a trusted counselor.

It sounds "cliché" but I focus on meeting each client where they are from the very first therapy session. If you aren't sure what your exact issues, needs or goals for therapy are, you are not alone. I work with clients to identify key issues impacting daily life and contributing to their primary symptoms, develop treatment goals and objectives tailored to address the identified issues in a realistic way, and spending sessions working together to facilitate positive change.

“I consider it an honor to work alongside others as they navigate the journey toward healing and change. My hope is to improve emotional health as a part of overall wellness. I believe that each person has a unique set of needs, life experiences, and strengths that deserve a tailored counseling approach. What may work for one person in therapy might not work for another. My objective is to help identify and work toward therapeutic goals at a comfortable pace in a way that best fits each person.

Life can be difficult and overwhelming for all of us at times. And finding help can be another added challenge when you aren’t sure what you need. We can figure that out together.

You already possess the ability to reach your full potential. My job as your therapist is to listen, walk alongside you, and help you move toward this potential. People seek therapy because they desire happiness. Let's begin by discovering what happiness looks like for you. Do you feel unheard, dismissed and over-ridden by a parent or partner even though you are an adult? Do you feel as though attempting to set new boundaries for yourself is next to impossible because important others will simply disregard them? Therapy can help you learn to fully validate within yourself what it is you feel and believe, and what it is you consider to be important. Peace, authenticity, and balance are springboards to happiness. My goal is to offer you individualized help in overcoming the obstacles that are blocking that happiness. Taking a step, reaching out for some help, will lead you to the change and growth you are hoping for. And whether you are seeking thriving relationships or simply greater contentment, I will help you tap into your own innate strengths to bring about a fuller, happier life.
