About Clearer Skies Counseling, LLC

I opened Clearer Skies Counseling, LLC several years ago in response to multiple requests from colleagues and patients I worked with in the Emergency Department at OHSU to provide ongoing therapy.

Since that time, my work in the community has become more important and central as I have seen clients heal old wounds, explore new skills and paths and recover themselves in amazing ways- I am constantly impressed by my clients! I have found that I am especially skilled in working with folks experiencing the impact of trauma and stress on their daily lives-  whether from intense work or life transitions and adult survivors of abuse. My work stems from a place of seeing strengths and offering grace. I truly believe that people have the capacity to heal and- while therapy is no guarantee of happiness- my clients tell me they feel lighter after every meeting.  I'm told I bring a calm and centered presence to difficult and intense moments. I work with folks that are kind, courageous and willing to self examine in order to heal. You may not feel like this is you, but if you're here- it probably is.


I have expertise and additional training  in trauma, grief/loss and family systems therapy and look forward to talking to you more about your needs!
