Therapists for college students near 97201

I help clients recover from anxiety and depression and improve social relationships. I offer an insight-oriented approach. I also do EMDR and parts work. These modalities are helpful for trauma recovery and changing unhappy patterns. My goals are for clients to feel supported and understood. I recognize that each person has their own, internal wisdom. I like to understand and honor this wisdom as I work with you to build better mental health.

Finding a therapist who shares important parts of your identity or life experience can make therapy feel more accessible and meaningful. My experiences as an Indigenous and queer trans man and outdoor adventure athlete have shaped my journey and the way I understand healing. I take a relational approach grounded in Indigenous perspectives, with a belief that growth and healing happen through community and connection. I work collaboratively with people to explore patterns and relationships while considering how our cultural, social, and systemic contexts shape who we are and how we experience the world. My goal is to cultivate a therapeutic relationship where you can be curious and vulnerable without having to leave important parts of yourself at the door. My practice is rooted in Relational-Cultural Theory, with elements of mindfulness and ecotherapy. I work with individuals, couples, and groups, and I also offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) and gender-affirming care. I may be a particularly good fit if you're navigating questions of queer or cultural identity, healthy masculinity, grief, relationships and polyamory, sleep and restorative practices, or the ways risk, challenge, and growth show up in your life. I'm also interested in working with people who feel most themselves outdoors, whether that's through running, climbing, paddling, cycling, or other forms of adventure. Before becoming a counselor, I spent years in bike shops and punk houses and later worked in engineering, business, and leadership. Those experiences shaped my appreciation for people who don't always fit neatly into conventional systems or expectations. Outside of therapy, you'll usually find me running in the forest with my dog and partner, fixing things, making adventure gear, or strength training. I currently offer affordable telehealth counseling in Oregon, Washington, Oklahoma, Montana, Alaska, and Rhode Island. My standard session fee is $30 with sliding-scale options available.

Maybe you’ve been holding it together for a while, but lately, you’re just… tired. Between school, relationships, family, work, and trying to figure out who you are and what you want, it can feel like a lot to carry. Maybe anxiety, panic, depression, past experiences, or difficult relationships are making things harder than they need to be. Or maybe you’ve gotten really good at showing up for everyone else while feeling disconnected from yourself. You might be wanting to feel more like you again—to enjoy things, feel more present, have healthier relationships, and not feel like you’re constantly stressed, overwhelmed, or on edge. I work with adults who want to better understand themselves and make meaningful, lasting changes in their lives. I’m EMDR certified through EMDRIA, with a particular focus on trauma, attachment, and relationships. I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can be honest, feel understood, and not have to figure everything out on your own. Building a safe, trusting relationship is at the heart of my work, and I bring that same sense of connection and collaboration into EMDR. EMDR can help us work through experiences that continue to affect how you feel, think, relate to others, or see yourself—even if you wouldn’t necessarily describe those experiences as “trauma.” Sometimes it’s a difficult childhood, a painful relationship, a loss, chronic stress, or experiences that left you feeling unsafe, unseen, powerless, or disconnected from yourself. My approach to EMDR is individualized and collaborative. There’s no expectation that you should jump into the hardest topics right away. We’ll pay attention to what your mind and body need, build a sense of safety and stability first, and move at a pace that feels manageable for you. You’re always part of the conversation about where we go and when we’re ready to get there. Alongside EMDR, I draw from attachment-based, somatic, and parts-work approaches. Together, we can explore not just what you’re struggling with, but why certain patterns keep showing up—and what might help you create something different. My goal isn’t simply to help you feel less anxious or overwhelmed. It’s to help you understand yourself more deeply, feel more connected to yourself and others, and have more freedom in how you move through life. And you don’t have to have it all figured out before you start therapy. You don’t need to know exactly what’s wrong or what you need. We can start wherever you are, make sense of what you’ve been carrying, and figure it out together. You deserve a space where you can show up as you are—not as the version of yourself you think you’re supposed to be. Call, text or email me today to set up a free 15 minute chat so we can learn a bit more about each other and see if we'd like to work together to get you feeling better. I'm looking forward to connecting with you :)

I use a client centered approach, which means you will be in the driver's seat regarding the areas of your life that you want to discuss, and I will be your co-pilot, helping to navigate the terrain and offering you tools and wisdom along the way. My counseling approach is collaborative, genuine, and relational. I approach counseling with an unconditional positive regard for my clients. My clients would describe my style as down to earth and relatable. I strive to create an atmosphere that is safe and free of judgement so that you feel comfortable discussing difficult topics. My areas of focus are helping people experiencing chronic pain, identity exploration, support during transitions and times of stress, support with navigating the complexities of relationships, and trauma recovery.

Wanting to implement change in your life or relationships can feel challenging and overwhelming. Acknowledging that we are in a place where talking to a therapist seems helpful is an act of courage and also provides some relief that we are taking steps to help ourselves with the difficulties that arise in life. I believe we all story our lives against the backdrop of our personal discourse, family discourse, and societal discourse. Some of the stories we identify with have been beneficial yet others have been less helpful or even hinder us to reach the happiness and contentment we seek.

I primarily support LGBTQIA+ and/or BIPOC adults who struggle with being their full, authentic selves navigate challenging systems and relationships. Clients often come to me worried that by making meaningful changes in their lives, they are being selfish. They might find themselves in work environments that are unsupportive, relationships they feel unfulfilled by, and friendships that seem unbalanced. It's a frustrating cycle, and they want their lives to be different, but are unsure how. After working with me, clients find themselves feeling more able to care for themselves, find joy in being with others, and feel more at peace with themselves. I approach therapy collaboratively and value humor, identity, and compassionate honesty in the therapeutic relationship. I also provide Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems treatment for trauma and provide letters for gender-affirming medical services. I know how frustrating it is to be unheard and unseen.

I have a social justice orientation and am affirming of all genders, sexualities, body sizes, and differing relationship structures. If any of the above spoke to you, let's chat!

Reach out for a free consultation, and maybe therapy is the tool you need to move forward.

I enjoy working with folks who are navigating issues of anxiety, depression, ADHD, perfectionism, emotion regulation, grief, stress management, or relationship dynamics & communication skills. Therapy can also be a great place to receive support from a neutral person not already involved in your life, potentially to help develop self-awareness, self-confidence, or explore your future goals & plans. I especially enjoy working with University students who are pursuing their Masters or PhD degrees in Graduate School, though I also work with many Undergrad students adjusting to college life as well. Additionally, I have experience with student athletes & the intersection of mental health with sports performance.

I love helping people learn how to have healthy boundaries with others, their work, or some other habit they are concerned about. If you want to understand yourself better and possibly learn to make healthier choices based on your values, I would love to work with you. Therapy is sometimes the first positive step that represents caring for yourself. It is an acknowledgement that you are worth the effort. I am an ally regardless of race, culture, physical ability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, immigration status, political affiliation, sexual orientation, or spiritual beliefs.

The negative effects can be long-lasting, confusing, and persist without treatment. If this is a familiar for you, call me.
