I provide a collaborative and holistic mind-body approach to psychotherapy. I believe that every individual has an innate capacity to heal and deepen their connection to self/others. I offer practical tools to help you achieve a greater sense of growth and well-being and find relief from the unhealthy patterns that keep you stuck. It is my goal to create a safe and compassionate environment in which your unique strengths and resources can be accessed, and the negative experiences from the past that continue to affect the present can be uncovered and resolved. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who experience relationship issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, and eating disorders. Within these modalities, I integrate Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, IFS, EMDR, attachment theory, and behavioral approaches to provide the most comprehensive and holistic care. It is my joy and honor to accompany you during this part of your journey of self-discovery and transformation.

I work with ALL people (size, gender, sex, race, ability, religion) who feel like a stranger within their own body, mind, and spirit. This may be due to loss of faith (deconstruction), identity work, existential questions, relational issues, chronic self neglect, disordered eating, trauma. Those who are hungering to be more attuned and embodied in their emotions, values, sense of worthiness but somewhere got lost along the way and are ready to find home again. My approach is collaborative, relational, trauma informed, and human. I draw on my own history/faith transition from Christianity for spiritual matters. I also draw from attachment based, IFS, mindfulness, gestalt and psychodynamic interventions. I support HAES (Health at Every Size) and I see age 18+ through mature adulthood. Each person has a story they can flourish in, no one has to merely tolerate life. My joy is to enter into and unearth that story with you. This is where renewal and transformation begins. Just as all people have the vulnerability of being deeply wounded, I believe we all have the capacity, resilience, and creativity to truly heal.

Hi, I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Licensed Dietitian in Oregon. I have experience working in higher levels of care at the PHP and IOP levels of care. My passion lies in guiding patient's towards improving their relationship with food, reconnecting with their body, and working towards removing food judgement.

I received my Master’s degree from Lewis and Clark college in Portland, OR in counseling psychology and addictions studies. Here I completed a 3 year Eating Disorder Certificate program. I have been working as a counselor in various capacities since 2006 including outpatient, intensive-outpatient, residential treatment, and acute psychiatric hospital settings. I have experience treating various Eating Disorder spectrum diagnosis including Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, Exercise Addiction and Body Dysmorphic Disorder. I also have experience treating Substance Use Disorders, and other mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, relationship issues, and mood fluctuations. My personal style of counseling is holistic in nature, as I come from a humanistic belief that every individual has the ability to change. From this approach, the individual learns how to utilize their own inner strengths to find more purpose and meaning in their life. I utilize a Health and Every Size approach (HAES) and draw from Intuitive Eating interventions when appropriate. My role as a counselor is to highlight each individual’s power to change, helping them to gain more awareness in how to live a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Our nutrition team creates positive and therapeutic meal and snack experiences, which ultimately help clients find freedom from food and discover the eater they are naturally designed to be. Since our approach is individualized, we allow personalization of meal planning for all eating disorder diagnoses, while simultaneously re-teaching, and guiding the application of the basics of appetite regulation, metabolism, and general nutrition principles. Our goal for our clients is to have a practical, life-giving, trust based relationship with food and their bodies. What does treatment at Opal look like?

As a registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN), I have dedicated my career to empowering my clients to reclaim their body autonomy by finding food freedom and making peace with their bodies. My compassionate approach is informed by the core truth that we are all born with the ability to intuitively nourish our bodies. Mixed messages around food propagated by our culture (i.e. diet culture), however, threaten to disconnect us from our body autonomy and this innate skill. Cue the self-limiting beliefs and shame and, well, you’ve got yourself a messy relationship with food! As a dietitian, I work alongside my clients to help them rediscover their ability to intuitively eat as well as work towards healing their relationship with food. Through my practical, yet empathetic approach, I can help my clients break down big, scary goals into smaller, manageable (i.e. less scary) ones. This ensures that the skills we are working on are sustainable - which is kinda the point! It is my belief that we are far more than what we eat and that everyone deserves a life free from intrusive thoughts about food.
