Life doesn’t move in straight lines.
When anxiety stirs, old traumas surface, or the world asks more of you than you have to give, it can feel like you’re wandering without a map.
At Healing Arts Therapy PDX, we help you listen beneath the noise, meet the parts of yourself waiting in the shadows, and walk your path with clarity, strength, and a deeper sense of connection to who you truly are.
If you’re reading this, something inside you is already asking for change.
These questions can help you recognize the patterns you’ve been carrying for too long.
Do you keep yourself small to keep the peace?
Do you say yes when your whole body wants to say no?
Are you stuck in patterns you’re finally ready to break?
Do you lose yourself in relationships and forget what you want?
Are you exhausted from carrying everyone else’s emotions?
Do you struggle to trust your voice after years of being dismissed or gaslit?
Are you trying to build a life that feels true—but don’t know where to begin?
Do you question what’s healthy in love—monogamous, poly, queer, or anything in between?
Are you learning to set boundaries without the guilt that follows you?
Areas we support
At Healing Arts Therapy PDX, we offer trauma-informed, compassionate support for the parts of you that feel overwhelmed, unseen, or stuck in old patterns. Using somatic practices, direct and gentle inquiry, and deep shadow-work exploration, we help you reconnect with your truth so you can move through life with clarity and intention.
Identity, Self-Worth & Life Transitions
We explore the shifts happening in your life—whether it involves divorce, redefining identity, or releasing old conditioning—and reconnect with what feels true and authentic for you. This work supports you in reclaiming your voice, strengthening self-worth, and creating a life that aligns with your values.
Therapists
We hold space for therapists who are doing their own inner work while holding so much for others.
Whether you’re navigating countertransference, burnout, boundary fatigue, or the emotional echoes of your clients’ stories, this is a place where you can stop performing and simply be human.
Through somatic practices, reflective inquiry, and deep shadow-work, we help you explore what’s coming up in your body, your relationships, and your professional identity—so you can reconnect with your clarity, integrity, and the parts of you that brought you into this field in the first place.
Couples and Family Therapy
Relationships come in many forms, and each deserves thoughtful, affirming support. We offer couples counseling for traditional and nontraditional relationship systems, including married and unmarried partners, LGBTQIA+ couples, blended families, polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous relationships, and partners navigating separation or changing relationship structures. Together, we can explore communication patterns, strengthen connection, repair trust, navigate conflict, and create agreements that honor each person’s needs, values, and boundaries. Our approach is inclusive, nonjudgmental, and grounded in respect for the relationship structure that feels authentic to you.
Religious Deconstruction (Ex-Mormon)
We support individuals untangling the layers of religious conditioning, high-demand systems, and the emotional aftershocks of leaving Mormonism.
Whether you're grieving community loss, unpacking internalized beliefs, navigating family tension, or reclaiming your identity outside the church, this is a space to explore without judgment or pressure.
Trauma & Nervous System Healing
We work together to understand how past experiences live in the body and shape current patterns. Through somatic awareness, nervous system regulation, and trauma-informed approaches, we gently unwind survival-based responses and build a growing sense of inner safety, grounding, and self-trust.
Neurodiversity-Informed Support (ADHD & Beyond)
We approach neurodiversity from a strengths-based and validating perspective, honoring the unique ways your brain works. Together, we explore emotional regulation, sensory needs, identity, and practical tools that support your rhythms—not the unrealistic expectations often placed on you. This work helps create systems and understanding that feel supportive and sustainable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect in the first session?
The first session focuses on getting to know you, your goals, and what brings you in. We’ll talk about what’s working, what isn’t, and what you’d like to shift. You’re welcome to share at your own pace—there’s no pressure to disclose more than feels right.
How long are sessions?
Sessions are typically 50 minutes, unless we decide that extended sessions would be more supportive.
Do you offer online or in-person sessions?
I offer secure telehealth appointments for individuals located in Oregon.
Do you work with couples or families?
We offer couples counseling for traditional and nontraditional relationship systems, including married and unmarried partners, LGBTQIA+ couples, blended families, polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous relationships, and partners navigating separation or changing relationship structures.
What are your fees?
Session fees are $180, depending on the type of session and financial accessibility options. We also offer limited sliding-scale spots.
What is your cancellation policy?
I ask for 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule. Sessions canceled with less notice may incur a cancellation fee.
How often will we meet?
Most clients start with weekly sessions and adjust as needed. We can tailor frequency to your goals, support needs, and capacity.
How long will therapy take?
Therapy is different for each person. Some attend for a few months to work through a specific issue; others stay longer for ongoing healing, integration, and growth. You set the pace.
Do you give homework between sessions?
Sometimes! If it feels supportive, We may suggest mindfulness practices, journaling prompts, body-based activities, or readings. You’re always free to decline or adapt them.
