Welcome to Willamette Sky Counseling. As your therapist, I will support and encourage you to deepen insight, develop healthy communication patterns, explore your emotions and integrate your thoughts, feelings and behaviors in what you will hopefully experience as meaningful and challenging work. I also invite you to explore the number of wonderful therapists who work here.
Approach to Counseling: As a level one Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP) trained therapist, I work with the principles of Mind/Body/Spirit, Mindfulness and Presence, Non Violence and the wisdom of the body to to access and process traumatic and developmental experiences. SP is a holistic and evidence based approach that includes somatic, emotional and cognitive processing. The areas I may be of support to you might include anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief & loss, career, and major life transitions.
In addition to clinical work, my professional background includes 15 years working in Communications for global technology corporations in San Diego and the The San Francisco Bay Area where I developed a profound awareness of the need for transparent communication, collaborative work spaces and social and emotional integration in the workplace. It is my aim to develop and encourage these objectives with clients and the team at WSky.
While I bring a blend of academic and professional experience to inform my practice, it is perhaps my personal experience with therapy, and healing from parent suicide and loss during childhood that has led me to believe deeply in the potential of therapy, the therapeutic relationship, and empathy as a means for change. I believe that feeling whole and connected despite history or circumstance, is entirely possible. I enjoy working with people who are thoughtful, sensitive and committed to their personal growth.
