My heartfelt wish is to help you find your voice and expression in the world. There are so many ways we adapt to our circumstances, family, society or culture. To fit in, you might feel like you've lost part of yourself. You may feel isolated, like no one can possibly understand or even accept you. Maybe you grew up in a family affected by addiction, identify as GLBQT, or were raised in a religion that feels unaccepting. Perhaps you're an artist or unemployed and struggling with confidence. Whatever your circumstance, you can find the joy of being you. I have a special interest in helping people who grew up with, or currently have, loved ones either using or recovering from alcoholism, chemical dependency and other addictions. Three of the most prevalent symptoms that people suffer from are: feeling unloveable, harshly critical of oneself and others, and perfectionism. I am a Nationally Certified Counselor and a Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor. I am particularly interested in neurobiology, trauma informed care and alternative ways of processing and healing. I am in the process of earning a Certificate in Trauma from Portland State University.
