Oregon Regence BCBS
When work drains everything you have, relationships and family life often absorb the cost. Therapy can help with burnout, boundaries, conflict and clearer decisions.
When Work Takes All of You
Burnout can look like irritability, numbness, dread, poor sleep, procrastination, constant rumination or having no emotional energy left for the people you care about. Sometimes the problem is workload; sometimes it is a boss, coworker, culture or role that keeps you activated long after work ends.
How Therapy Can Help
Therapy can help you map the sources of stress, identify what can change, strengthen boundaries and communication, and make clearer decisions about staying, leaving, asking for change or protecting your life outside work.
The Care Map Method™: Map • Match • Merge • Manage
MAP — Understand the pattern. Identify triggers, recurring interactions, stressors, beliefs and roles that keep the problem going.
MATCH — Identify needs and goals. Clarify what matters most, what you can influence and what a healthier outcome would look like.
MERGE — Improve communication and connection. Practice clearer language, boundaries, listening and responses that reduce reactivity and support healthier relationships.
MANAGE — Create practical next steps. Build realistic strategies, routines, agreements and coping tools you can use outside the session.
Online therapy and insurance
I provide online therapy for clients located in Oregon. I may participate with Regence BCBS through Headway, depending on the specific plan and my current network participation. Insurance eligibility, benefits, copays, deductibles and coverage vary. Please verify your benefits through Headway before your appointment.
A safe place to unload—and a plan to move forward
My style is warm, supportive, practical and nonjudgmental. There is room to say the things you are embarrassed, angry, confused or exhausted about without shame or blame. We will make space for the feelings and also work toward tangible changes, clearer decisions and concrete next steps.
Ready for support?
If this issue is affecting your mood, relationships, work, sleep or sense of stability, you do not have to wait until it becomes a crisis. Use my Headway profile to check insurance eligibility and available appointment times.

Caring for My Parents Is Hurting My Marriage
Caring for aging parents can consume time, attention, money and emotional energy that once belonged to a marriage. One partner may feel overwhelmed while the other feels shut out, neglected or frustrated. Neither person has to be the villain for the relationship to be under real strain.

Caring for My Parents Is Hurting My Marriage
Caring for aging parents can consume time, attention, money and emotional energy that once belonged to a marriage. One partner may feel overwhelmed while the other feels shut out, neglected or frustrated. Neither person has to be the villain for the relationship to be under real strain.
You may be functioning well in many areas of life and still feel consumed by this one relationship or transition. When the same thoughts and conversations repeat, it can become difficult to know what is a reasonable reaction, what needs to change, and where to begin.

A safe place for support and practical solutions
Therapy can help couples name the pressure more accurately, communicate needs without blame, redistribute responsibilities where possible and protect small areas of connection. Caregiving may not become easy, but the marriage does not have to disappear inside it.
My approach is warm, relational and solution-focused. I want therapy to feel like one completely safe place with no judgment, stress, shame or blame. You can unload what you are carrying, better understand yourself and the people around you, name emotions more clearly, and leave with practical ways to move forward. My sole goal is for clients to leave each session feeling better, less alone and more supported.
