Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Portland, OR

I spent 18 years as a firefighter and EMT, showing up for people at their most vulnerable and helping heal their physical wounds. Now, I bring that same dedication to helping people heal their emotional wounds as a Licensed Professional Counselor with Love Focused Counseling. I've been in the mental health field since 2012 — from residential care to private practice — and I founded my practice on one belief: the most important relationship you'll ever have is the one with yourself. When that relationship is strong and stable, you can show up fully in every other area of your life.

I have a virtual private practice since the pandemic started. I graduated from Lewis & Clark College with a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2017 and have been practicing for 8 years. I have specialized in treated OCD and Grief & Loss in both adults and children.

When I am not at work, I take care of my large plant collection, listen to audiobooks, practice drums and spend time with family and friends.

I believe that the healing space happens when someone feels safe, seen, and respected. My approach is warm, direct, and grounded, while also being able to challenge and empower my clients. I bring both clinical and real-world understanding into sessions. So, whether you are feeling stuck, over-whelmed, or just ready for a change, we will move at a pace that not only honors you, but provides you with the tools you will need to continue on your personal healing journey.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience in mental health care, supporting individuals across inpatient and outpatient settings. Through my work, I have cared for clients with a wide range of needs, including chronic and severe mental health conditions, and I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate symptoms while trying to maintain daily life.

My care philosophy is centered on partnership. Treatment is not about taking over your care, but about working with you to explore your symptoms, goals, and values. Together, we develop a treatment plan that feels respectful, personalized, and empowering. If you have concerns or hesitations about medication, we will discuss all available options openly and thoughtfully, moving at a pace that feels right for you.

I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, OCD, and other mood and thought-related conditions. During the initial session, we focus on understanding your concerns, reviewing your history, and identifying practical steps toward improvement. Care may include psychiatric evaluation, medication management when appropriate, brief psychotherapy, education, and ongoing support.

I believe mental health care should feel supportive, clear, and collaborative—not rushed or overwhelming.

You do not have to face these challenges alone. My role is to help you reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and regain balance so you can function at your best and move forward with confidence and stability.
