Services
Each person holds within themselves the ability to heal. We have all experienced pain, grief, and hardship, and we all have the capacity for great resiliency. You have gotten to where you are today because you have worked to be here. When humans are provided with the support and connection they need, they can achieve the growth and peace they are searching for.
What we offer
Growing Peace Counseling offers mental health counseling to individual adults in Oregon. My goal is to create an environment that radiates warmth, comfort, and safety. All that I do as a counselor is with the intention of facilitating growth and healing through support and empowerment.
My therapeutic style often shifts to meet each client's needs, but my primary approach is compassion-focused. This approach encourages the manifestation of self-love and self-acceptance, and combats guilt, shame, and hate that stems from trauma. In addition, I incorporate emotion-focused therapy, Brainspotting, relational-cultural therapy, and parts work.
Who we serve
Growing Peace Counseling has a special interest in diversity, social justice, and advocacy. As such, I enjoy working with clients who identify as multicultural and/or LGBTQ+. I have experience in trauma work including intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and childhood/family of origin trauma. I also have interest/experience in working with neurodivergence, self-esteem issues, anxiety, depression, stress-management, personal growth, relationship concerns, and food/body issues. If you don’t find yourself on this list, don’t fret. I would love to meet with you to see if we are a good therapeutic match.​
How we bill
At this time, Growing Peace Counseling is contracted with PacificSource Commercial plans, PacificSource Community Solutions (OHP) (excluding Legacy), Samaritan InterCommunity Health Network (OHP), most commercial Providence plans, and most commercial Anthem/Regence/ BlueCross/BlueShield plans. I also accept private-pay clients and have an adjustable fee scale based on need and availability.​​​
I see all of my clients through telehealth. This usually looks like live, two-way video and audio connection. As such, I am able to work with clients throughout the state of Oregon, and clients have the convenience of attending session in their own safe and private space.
