I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 9 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and couples through life’s most challenging moments. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and mindfulness-based healing. My approach is person-centered, allowing you to guide the pace while I offer evidence-informed interventions that help you explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals in a safe, supportive space.

I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness-based work to support emotional growth and resilience. I am also trained in EMDR to help clients process trauma and move toward lasting healing.
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you do not have to walk this journey alone. Together, we will explore the parts of your story that need attention, compassion, and clarity. I will meet you with warmth and encouragement as you take meaningful steps toward becoming the healthiest version of yourself.

Teen counseling helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst teens include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and problematic relationships with food.
Teen counseling works by using multiple techniques, tailored to fit the teen’s unique needs — based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks teen therapists in Oregon have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.
Signs that teens might need Teen counseling can be very subjective, as they are experiencing many changes and can have intense reactions to them. As parents, you know your child best and are best equipped to judge whether certain reactions are standard behaviors for your teen or whether they might be hinting at a larger problem. Even so, there are a few common signs and events that often point to a need for therapy, such as experiencing divorce or loss, grief, consistent low moods, teens distancing themselves and becoming isolated, losing interest in hobbies, excessive anger or irritability, substance use issues, and suicidal ideation, among others.
Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Oregon, OR offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of teen counseling depends on your teen’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, teen counseling sessions will last for several months.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
