Again, I cannot stress the importance of this. As an LPC, I am working to create policy change in my state of Oregon, specifically within the treatment of mental health professionals who are not supported, respected, or adequately protected within current systems. Too often, counselors face unnecessary barriers, from delayed credentialing and inequitable pay structures to exploitative agency practices, all of which directly affect both clinician well-being and client care. My advocacy is aimed at building a system that values clinicians as essential providers and ensures they can do their work without systemic harm or obstruction.

🌲 Welcome to Conifer Counseling 🌲

I’m so glad you’re here. Conifer Counseling was created with one simple belief: every person deserves a space where they feel heard, supported, and free to grow at their own pace.

As a licensed professional counselor, I work with individuals navigating life transitions, trauma, grief, neurodivergence, identity exploration, and the everyday challenges of being human. My approach is integrative and collaborative, drawing on evidence-based practices like EMDR, CBT, and DBT, while also holding space for meaning, creativity, and the unique story you bring.

Whether you’re seeking relief, clarity, or a deeper connection to yourself, you don’t have to do it alone. Healing isn’t about rushing or “fixing”, it’s about finding steady ground and discovering new ways forward.

Thank you for joining me here. I’ll be sharing resources, reflections, and updates as Conifer Counseling grows. If you feel like it’s time to take that next step, I invite you to reach out.

✨ Being ready doesn’t always feel safe or certain. Sometimes it’s just a quiet shift, a sense that you’re done avoiding and something needs to change. If you find yourself at that edge, I’m here to walk with you.
