Family therapy and counseling in Eugene, OR

I specialize in helping my clients feel more connected in family and love relationships. You may be a parent struggling with irritability and boundaries, a married person feeling resentful or overwhelmed by conflict with your partner, or someone feeling burdened by guilt or expectations in extended family relationships. These kinds of struggles can create feelings of isolation and loneliness, or the sense that you've developed a short fuse alternating with feelings of hopelessness. Problems in important relationships can lead to an impaired sense of self-worth, overwhelming guilt and shame, or a hypercritical inner voice.

My ideal client knows something isn’t working—even if they can’t name it. They may feel anxious, numb, overwhelmed, stuck in patterns, or burdened by trauma, addiction, grief, or shame.

I work best with people ready to explore discomfort, face what’s been avoided, and commit to real, lasting change.
