ABOUT
ME
Originally from Marin County, California, my journey in psychology began in the late 1990s. I earned both my BS and MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Portland State University, where I also confronted intense personal challenges. Seeking change, I turned to therapy—breaking free from limiting beliefs and unhelpful patterns while discovering levels of self-awareness and compassion I hadn’t known were possible.
Mindfulness and somatic techniques became essential tools in my daily life, supporting continued growth in mind, body, and career. Today, it’s both my passion and privilege to help others develop these same skills—to witness their healing, resilience, and transformation unfold.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in neuroscience research. I’ve worked at Oregon Health & Science University in both the Center for ADHD Research (Department of Psychiatry) and the Developmental Brain Imaging Lab (Department of Behavioral Neuroscience).
