Hey there! Do you want to liberate yourself from debilitating stress, anxiety, shame, irritability, loneliness, numbness, hopelessness, and so much more that is difficult to describe with mere words, but you can feel in your body?

I am a counselor based in Portland and I offer telehealth services to adults throughout Oregon. I specialize in helping those who struggle with body shame and disordered eating, those dealing with trauma/complex PTSD/shame, and those who have chronic illness and/or pain. I use concepts from Health At Every Size®, Body Trust®, and fat liberation to help my clients forge peaceful relationships with their bodies and food. I also use experiential therapy (specifically a therapy called AEDP) to help my clients face feelings that have been too difficult to face on their own. I especially love supporting those in fat bodies and those who struggle with binge eating. I am fat positive, anti-racist, LGBTQIA2S+ affirming, neurodiversity affirming, sex positive, and kink/poly affirming. I welcome all clients to my practice, whatever their race, ethnicity, religion, size, gender, sexuality, dis/abilities, citizenship, or social class.

Hi! I'm Ash, a HAES aligned, anti-diet dietitian, fiercely committed to providing weight-inclusive and neurodiversity affirming care to all of my patients. My pronouns are she/her and I am late diagnosed AuDHD (autism + ADHD), currently in remission from an eating disorder. My lived experience with AuDHD and eating disorders has deeply influenced my work in the nutrition field and my desire to provide evidenced-based, patient centered care to heal our community.

I work with folks 18 and older on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment issues, disordered eating and body image. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative and transparent. I'm trained in somatic- and attachment-focused EMDR for processing traumatic memories and addressing the roots of anxiety and depression. My work is driven by Health At Every Size, fat liberation and social justice. I hope to help you explore and protect values that truly support your health wellness, as well as overcome barriers to living those values, such as worry, perfectionism and negative self-evaluation. I want to hold space for the reality that your eating disorder has been an attempt to get your needs met--it's just not sustainable. You, as much as anyone else, deserve health and healing.

As an RN, Certified Intuitive Eating Professional, and creator of the Food Attachment Model ™, Tiffany helps people with disordered eating finally find freedom, balance, and satisfaction. She personally struggled with disordered eating and found a path to peace. It was so transformational that she dedicated her work to helping others do the same. Her coaching is focused on secure attachment, body respect, and is a HAES informed approach. Tiffany's passion is helping people stop wasting their precious energy drained by the food and body struggle so that they can use that energy to be powerful leaders in the world. She has also been alcohol and substance free since 1998 and feels that recovery has informed all areas of her life, especially her work as a nurse and a coach. When she isn’t coaching, speaking, and podcasting, she enjoys spending time with friends and family, being in nature and creating more fun, adventure, and play in life.

I hold a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling degree from Antioch University, a CACREP accredited program. Major coursework included individual counseling, group counseling, counseling theories and skills, human development, social and cultural diversity, crisis counseling, understanding addiction, diagnosing mental health disorders, assessment of mental health disorders, human sexuality, and gender affirming care. I am registered with the Mental Health & Addiction Certification Board of Oregon as a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor – I (CADC-I) and with the National Board for Certified Counselors as a National Certified Counselor (NCC). I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in Sociology and Psychology from Portland State University. As a Professional Counselor Associate, I am currently supervised by Selin Strait, LPC, CHT, and Tever Nickerson, LPC. I have direct experience working with adolescents with eating disorders in a residential setting as an intern as well as experience working with adults with eating disorders in an outpatient setting. I completed an internship and worked for three years in a residential and outpatient setting with adults with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders. I have worked with patients who struggle with a variety of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, interpersonal conflict, parenting stress, grief and loss, and navigating life transitions. I see my job as a therapist as being a supporter of your work to know, grow, and use your own wisdom and strength to move toward your goals. I am also aware of how power, privilege, and oppression can affect our work together. I invite discussion around this and seek to lessen the impact of any imbalance. My goal is to empower you as the client to have choice and autonomy in our work together. My approach is a combination of multiple methods. I tend to think about cases through the lens of biopsychosocial, existential, attachment, and person-centered theories. In terms of skills, I lean toward dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). More importantly, I like to see what works for you as an individual and adjust the ideas and skills I bring into our sessions to fit your needs.
