My goal as a therapist is to provide an empathetic non-judgemental space for you. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is a catalyst for growth and healing. I draw from a range of modalities including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, client-centered therapy, and grief therapy.

I am a licensed clinical social worker. I hold a bachelor’s degree in social work from Portland State University, and a master’s degree in social work from Western New Mexico University. I have experienced working in a variety of medical settings including hospital, emergency room, hospice, and youth residential mental health. Though I enjoy working with all ages, I especially enjoy working with ages 5-13, older adults, and those experiencing grief. I consider it a privilege to witness and support your growth, as together, we navigate the intricacies of your inner world and work towards your personal goals.

During my free time you’ll find me at the beach with my two labs, or at a live-music concert.

I earned a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work from the University of Nevada-Reno. I am a Clinical Social Work Associate and have over 10 years of experience working with people of all ages struggling with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, phobias, life changes, domestic violence, PTSD, compassion fatigue/burnout and anger. My passion is working with those living with chronic illnesses, as well as caregivers, with a focus on wellness and developing coping skills that are sustainable for long term use. My years of experience in medical social work, chronic care management, and dialysis have given me a unique perspective and expertise in the emotional and physical adjustments associated with health changes. My style is down to earth, relaxed, supportive and compassionate. Treatment is evidenced based, using a strength based and person-centered approach. Modalities such as Solution Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Art/Play Therapy are examples of some of the modalities used and are individualized to each person. I believe that therapy is a collaborative effort and look forward to speaking with you.

As you begin to have a healthier relationship with yourself, it will be easier to take ownership of your life and manage it more productively. I use a variety of methods, depending on the needs of clients. These methods include cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, art therapy, family systems therapy, grief work, journaling, guided imagery, coping and psychoeducation.

I graduated from the University of Oregon with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology.  I then obtained my Master of Social Work from Washington University, in St. Louis. My background and experience have enabled me to develop skills in many areas of therapy, including helping people with anxiety, depression, social skills, High Functioning Autism, ADHD, chronic and acute illness, grief and loss. I have over twenty-five years’ experience as a social worker.  My career has been split between counseling people of all ages in the health care setting, counseling children in schools, and adults for depression and anxiety. I have extensive experience working with adults who experienced loss or reduction in quality of life, a diagnosis of a terminal illness, anticipatory grief, acute illnesses and change in life due to illness or injury. I have successfully worked with children 4 and up with grief, trauma, illness, physical impairments, depression, anxiety, high functioning autism and ADHD.  I also have undergone skilled training for assessing and counseling of clients with suspected dementia, memory loss, or traumatic brain injury.

My approach to therapy is flexible, customized and eclectic.  Each person is unique and will benefit from a variety of modalities.  I deeply believe all systems within a person need attention and care. We will look at all aspects of your life, recognizing your existing strengths and abilities.  Together we will improve your life from the inside out.

I believe in the potential of all people regardless of their history, past or upbringing. Helping clients to build self-awareness around their flaws and strengths is a journey that is imperative to personal growth and self-love. Entering therapy takes courage and following through can be hard work. My role is to help my clients reap the rewards to this work in all aspects of their lives by allowing therapeutic work to be something that carries a high return. I am truly honored to be on that journey with my clients in order to witness individuals truly blossom and step into a successful life of their own making.

I offer strengths based counseling services as well as CBT, trauma work and DBT in areas of addiction, anxiety, depression, anger and ADHD.

The real work can only begin in an environment that is safe, compassionate and understanding. I am aware of that component fully and strive to build an authentic alliance with my clients.

If you are unsure about counseling or how it can benefit you, you are not alone.

Asking for help can be a difficult step for many of us especially in a culture that conditions us to believe that seeking help equates to weakness. I whole-heartedly believe that our pain is here to show something that we need to see in order to grow. I believe our stories, when examined, exist to help us evolve, to help us understand ourselves and to teach us how to be more kind and compassionate to ourselves and others. I am here to hear, validate, reflect and create space for my clients to tell their story and to become the narrator that they were always meant to be.

I believe you are the expert in who you are and where you have been. My role as a counselor is to guide your process to deeper self-awareness through access to resources, ideas, and a safe space to explore your journey. Utilizing behavioral, motivational, mindfulness, narrative, and solution-focused therapies, we will build a roadmap guided by a person-centered and trauma-informed approach.

I have been a substance use counselor for almost a decade. I returned to school to gain a license, allowing me to assist people in addressing the underlying challenges in life that lead to addiction, self-harm, and a general lack of self-esteem. I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, graduating with honors from Walden University.

Through my life, professional, and educational experiences, I have developed a skill set in addressing stress, trauma (acute/chronic/complex), anxiety, depression, family issues, grief, domestic abuse, and relational challenges. You are not alone; together, we can find our way through hardships that may be holding you back from building your desired life.

My name is Jennifer and I live in the Willamette Valley with my family and dogs. I have been working in the field for the last decade and have a strong belief that human connection and empathy for each other can help heal most wounds we have.

When I work with individuals I like to get to know you and what your goals are so that I can help support this vision. This can be accomplished through different therapy modalities; Cognitive-behavior Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and other evidence-based modalities. The most important thing in working together is that you are comfortable with the work we are doing and in control of it.

I went to school at Portland State University where I obtained my Bachelors of Social Science in 2013, and my Masters of Social Work in 2017. I have worked across the lifespan with children, adults and older adults. I have worked in correctional settings, hospital settings, and community-based settings in providing therapeutic services. Most importantly I am a person with lived experience and understand the need for someone to listen to you without judgement.

Life is like a journey through the woods. It’s easy to lose track of where you wanted to go or to get delayed by the many obstacles that appear in your path. But good support can help you make your journey through life more successful (however you define success).  You may feel completely lost and alone in the woods, want to develop a clearer vision for your future destination, be dealing with obstacles, or simply want some extra support as you prepare to take on the next leg of your journey. Wherever you are, I am here to help you find solutions and take the next steps forward.

I work with individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in addressing stress/anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, career related stress, or just coaching you on toward your best life. When in-person sessions become available, I am also able to offer aromatherapy for those who want to experience the power of essential oils to help your brain and body make positive shifts.

Prior to completing my degree in counseling from Western Seminary in 2017, I spent 15 years working in ministry using horses to help individuals and families heal and grow. I spent many years leading teams, training staff, and coaching clients to success. And in my experience, people are never one sided. We are a complex blend of heart, body, mind, and spirit. Each part interacting and impacting the others both within ourselves and with the people and environment around us. So as a counselor I want to see you go beyond surviving and to learn to THRIVE in all areas.

I am not an expert on your life. You are. I am an expert at the process of helping you assess and clarify your values, define your purpose, build on your strengths, and develop your areas of potential growth. For nearly twenty years, I have worked with individuals, families and couples to successfully navigate life transitions, overcome challenges, and create meaningful and healthy relationships.

I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds. I specialize in helping clients navigate life transitions such as career changes, education level changes, relationship transitions, etc. My ten years of counseling experience in K-12 schools and six years as a college counselor have especially prepared me to work with adolescents who struggle with social, personal and school challenges. I am also uniquely qualified to work with the parents/guardians and families of adolescents and young adults.

Therapists typically adhere to one or more theories that provides them with a framework of how to understand and improve people's lives. Thus, the therapeutic experience will be different from one therapist to another depending on their theoretical orientation. It can be important to know a therapist's theoretical approach so that you can make informed choices about choosing the best therapist for you. 

As a solution-focused and cognitive emotional behavioral therapist (CEBT), I provide a safe and healthy space to better understand your life circumstances. My role is to help you identify and clarify the changes you would like to see. Together we will assess your strengths and assets to create pathways of growth. These pathways are specific, measurable, achievable and timely (SMART). While the past can be important in creating positive change, as a solution-focused therapist, I believe that real and long-term positive changes can come from examining and understanding your present circumstances. As a CEBT therapist, we will identify systems of dysfunctional thoughts, emotions and behaviors that sustain your unhappiness and may keep you "stuck". Then, we work together to replace these systems with healthy, positive and functional systems of living. While therapy is often serious and requires work, my clients would tell you that it can also be fun.

Finally, when searching for the right therapist, it is important to know their education and training. Specifically, my training includes a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Spanish, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Counseling and Educational Psychology. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Professional School Counselor in Oregon.  Additionally, I am a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and Nationally Certified School Counselor (NCSC).  Those are a lot of acronyms and what matters most is that I am skilled counselor who cares about people living happy and healthy lives. If you've read this far and feel like me and my approach might be a good "fit", please feel free to reach out and set up a time for us to meet.
