Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Bend, OR

I’m a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with clients across the lifespan. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from the University of Arizona and have experience caring for individuals in outpatient, intensive outpatient, and higher-acuity mental health settings. My background includes treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, OCD, mood disorders, and substance use. I take a thoughtful, practical, and individualized approach to care, with the goal of helping clients feel understood, safe, supported, and comfortable being honest when feeling emotionally vulnerable.

I believe that each of us carries more wisdom about our own life than any therapist ever could. My job isn’t to hand you answers, it’s to walk alongside you as you find them. Whatever brought you to this page: a child who’s struggling, a family stuck in the same painful pattern, a relationship that needs tending, or a version of yourself you’re trying to understand, please know that we'll work together and uncover the wise part of you who can help. I work with children, teens, individuals, and families, and I especially love working with parents and kids together.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, life transitions, and mood-related concerns. My goal is to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported.

I take a personalized approach to care, recognizing that mental health is influenced by many factors, including life experiences, relationships, work stress, sleep, physical health, and daily functioning. I work collaboratively with clients to better understand their symptoms, identify treatment goals, and develop a plan that supports stability, clarity, and improved quality of life.

You don't have to keep carrying it all alone.

Do you find yourself constantly overthinking, feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, or putting everyone else's needs before your own? Maybe you're successful on the outside but silently battling stress, self-doubt, burnout, or the weight of past experiences. Perhaps you're struggling in your relationships, navigating a major life transition, or simply feeling disconnected from the person you want to be.

If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone—and you don't have to navigate it by yourself.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor serving clients throughout Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor serving clients throughout Oregon. I provide individual therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic stress, burnout, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, low self-esteem, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, and difficulty setting healthy boundaries.

My passion is helping people move beyond simply surviving. Together, we'll identify the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, strengthen your emotional resilience, and help you develop practical tools so you can experience greater peace, confidence, and fulfillment in your daily life.

Whether you're facing a difficult season, healing from childhood wounds, working through relationship struggles, or learning how to manage anxiety that feels impossible to quiet, therapy can become a place where lasting change begins.

Hello! I am a Marriage & Family Therapist, licensed in OR and CA, and have a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology. I offer holistic psychotherapy to adults with an accepting, calm, and compassionate approach. Many of my clients are busy people with multifaceted lives, and deal with anxiety, trauma, life transitions, depression, grief and loss, and relationship concerns. Other clients reach out with work or career worries, creative blocks, spiritual matters, or for personal growth. I work from a Jungian perspective, so at times might incorporate dream work, symbolism and synchronicity into our work together. Ultimately though, I will meet you where you are and incorporate the tools best suited for you.
