My Lens as a Counselor
From your roots to your shoots, you are one organism. Your ancestors, body, mind, and heart are what bring you to your next moment. I am here to support you stepping into that moment in your fullest capacity to engage and respond.
Conventional U.S. society is filled with systems of oppression providing ongoing reflections of worth based on the undigested trauma of others. It is because of these systems of oppression that my feet are on the occupied and unceded lands of the Kalapuya people. Recognizing these systems, both how we are impacted, and how we participate, is an important part of understanding the context of our pain. In the counseling relationship, we examine and dismantle the context of the undigested trauma and begin to discern the essential truth of your experience.
In the process of the counseling relationship, we will partner to uncover the wisdom embodied in trauma, the courage within fear, and the power in pain. By facing, opening to, and accepting your full experience of life's many challenging moments, more meaning, contentment and agency can fill your life.
The relationship with your ancestors, self, loved ones, community and the earth can be engaging and rich. When the gift of each moment is integrated into it's context, it offers you the chance to experience joy in living.
