Therapy at Soul of the Lotus®
Lake Oswego, Portland, & Across Oregon
Trauma-Informed Therapy for Women, College Students & Young Adults
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or at a crossroads, therapy can offer a grounded place to land.
At Soul of the Lotus®, therapy is not about fixing what’s broken — it’s about creating safety in the body, understanding your inner world, and supporting real, sustainable change.
I offer trauma-informed, integrative therapy for women, college students, and young adults navigating:
anxiety and overwhelm
life transitions and identity shifts
burnout and nervous system dysregulation
relationship patterns and boundary challenges
grief, loss, and emotional processing
midlife transitions and awakening
This work is compassionate, paced, and deeply attuned.
My Approach
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, NCC), I blend evidence-based therapy with somatic and nervous-system-informed practices.
Our work together may include:
somatic awareness and nervous system regulation
gentle inner child and parts work
breath-based regulation techniques
insight-oriented and depth-informed therapy
practical tools for emotional resilience and self-trust
This is therapy that supports both stability and growth — helping you feel more grounded in the present while gently untangling patterns rooted in the past.
Who Therapy Is For
Therapy may be a good fit if you are:
seeking emotional support and grounding
navigating a life transition or period of uncertainty
feeling anxious, dysregulated, or disconnected from yourself
wanting a safe space to process without pressure to “perform healing”
looking for licensed, professional support rooted in compassion and depth
If you’re unsure whether therapy or another offering is the right place to start, we can explore that together.
Therapy vs. Coaching or Breathwork
Therapy focuses on emotional healing, nervous system regulation, and psychological support within a clinical framework.
Some seasons call for therapy.
Other seasons may call for coaching, breathwork, or group work.
You don’t have to know which is right — part of my role is helping you discern the most supportive path for where you are right now.
Ready to Begin?
Starting therapy doesn’t require certainty — only a willingness to take the next step.
If you’re feeling drawn but unsure, you’re welcome to reach out.
🌿 A gentle reassurance
You don’t need to be in crisis to begin therapy.
You don’t need to have the “right words.”
You don’t need to know exactly what you want to work on.
You only need a place where you can arrive as you are.
My Integrative Approach
Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. Therapy at Soul of the Lotus® is trauma-informed, relational, and body-aware — designed to support nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and sustainable change.
Our work is paced and collaborative. Depending on your needs and goals, therapy may gently integrate elements such as:
Somatic Healing & Nervous System Regulation

Why Work With Me
Therapy is more than talking — it’s about creating real, embodied change in a way that feels safe and sustainable.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, NCC) with advanced training in somatic and trauma-informed approaches, I bring both clinical expertise and lived understanding to the work. My own experiences navigating life transitions, healing relational patterns, and reclaiming a sense of inner steadiness inform how I hold space for each client.
I understand what it’s like to feel anxious, stuck, or disconnected. Together, we’ll work to uncover what’s been holding you back, release old patterns, and build resilience, clarity, and a more grounded relationship with yourself.
✨ You don’t have to do this alone. Whether you’re a college student, young adult, or woman in midlife, therapy can be a place to steady, reconnect, and begin again.
Begin Your Therapy Journey
Taking the first step doesn’t require certainty — only willingness.
If you’re ready to begin, or if you’re unsure and want support deciding, you’re welcome to reach out.

Parent - Child Sessions
Sometimes, bringing parents and children together in therapy helps foster understanding and connection. These sessions encourage open communication, strengthen relationships, and support both parents and teens in navigating difficult moments.
Parent-child sessions can be scheduled alongside individual therapy. For consistent family therapy, I can provide referrals.
