Therapy for breaking patterns.
Insight & change. Choose what happens next.
Difficult life experiences, heartbreak, and struggle can take a toll on the mind and heart. I focus in helping people become more free from old reactive ways.
Honesty, gentleness, and new possibility.
Many of the patterns that shape life were formed long ago and continue to influence how we think, feel, and respond.
Therapy offers an opportunity to bring these patterns into awareness, see life with greater clarity, and create more freedom, choice, and possibility.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in both acceptance and practical change.
About Shira
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Oregon providing individual therapy for adults.
My work combines depth psychology with practical approaches that help people better understand their thoughts, emotions, patterns, and choices.
I earned my Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Lewis & Clark College and have been in private practice for over 13 years. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in the belief that greater self-understanding creates more freedom, clarity, and choice.
I integrate concepts from Jungian psychology, symbols, and the unconscious with tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches, helping people develop greater insight, freedom, and choice.
