As a therapist, I help you reach greater understanding and compassion for yourself, to heal from painful experiences, find new ways of coping with stress and interacting with others. I serve individuals, couples in the areas of relationships and sexuality. I offer couples counseling for all relationship issues. With couples, I use research-based Gottman Methods, helping partners constructively manage conflict, intimacy, and create purpose in their life together. Occasionally I consult with individuals around sexual issues and alternative lifestyles. I am able to quickly make both men and women comfortable discussing these intimate area of their lives. Special interests include: life transitions, relationship problems, loss and grief, trauma, stress and anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. I also work with individuals seeking self-growth and mindfulness, even while life is going well
My passion in counseling is helping couples both in parenting but more so in developing a life together where they both can thrive and maintain a oneness.
I received my Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Southern Oregon. More than Class education, I provide a life of experience. In my personal life, I have 7 children, my first grandson and have parented 35 foster children. I spent many years building and developing parenting successes with The Jackson County Foster Parent Association and with parents dealing with numerous issues both in parenting and relational. Whether it be the stresses in life like buying their first home, understanding their sexuality together, making life choices or dealing with relationship issues such as infidelity, growing apart, empty nesting, and much more, I have worked and lived first hand with people such as yourself.
