Shout out to the 10-24 year-olds in Southern Oregon! Your voice and your truth deserve to be heard and respected.

It would be an honor to be invited into your life story and to help you embody your most authentic and healthy self.

I strongly believe that all humans can reach an optimum state of health. An essential part of achieving this often involves addressing limiting habitual patterns of behavior or belief systems as well as learning skills to optimize healthy relationships. I seek to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment in which clients can identify their own answers and achieve tangible results. This can occur both in individual sessions as well as with the collaboration of family members. My practice has lead me to work with youth, young adults, adults, and families facing some very challenging life situations and internal struggles.

I now offer Psilocybin Experiencing and Micro Dosing. Research has shown and I have seen treatment resistant addiction conditions respond rapidly to psilocybin treatment, often in one session! I also provide assistance in dealing with what triggers your cravings, repair of relationships, and healing of traumas that resulted from using or may have contributed to beginning using in the first place. I also work with complicated grief from the loss of a loved one to overdose, suicide, or other traumatic losses. I have over 50 years of personal recovery.

Most therapy issues stem from issues with control (ie. phobias, controlling others, being "a control freak," feeling controlled by others, uncontrolled thinking, uncontrolled behaviors, etc.). Being out-of-control is extremely uncomfortable, unpredictable, and unavoidable. In therapy we discuss different ways to relate to the concept of control by increasing psychological flexibility. Psychological flexibility is the ability to adapt to the inevitable uncertainties of life. With Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), I assist you in identifying your "stuck" points and making the necessary pivots towards living a life you love.

When you are moving in the right direction, the Universe cooperates. Most of us have set set goals or developed expectations for how we want to live our lives, but sometimes we get stuck along the way. We tend to think that we can sort out these complications on our own or by talking to a close friend. Therapy is an opportunity to tell your story to a professional asking the right questions, providing unbiased perspectives, or shining light on a dark place. I encourage clients to focus on the issues keeping them from experiencing contentment and satisfaction in life.

I believe that individuals have within them the capacity to achieve and maintain a state of positive mental health. Each person has a primarily unique and genuine outlook on life and in that tools inherent within to live a healthy existence. My role as a professional therapist is to guide and collaborate; to help the individual discover, foster and access the unique coping tools within.I strive to help the individual explore possibilities for change and help find positive direction,meaning and purpose in life.

I have a safe compassionate healing environment with you in mind. With over 20 years experience, I provide a sacred place to confidentially explore whatever you may need to. I will help you overcome the bonds that hold you back from your goals and from fully enjoying life. I believe in an inherently miraculous and powerful inner self. With cutting edge counseling services that keep you in charge, we will move forward together to overcome whatever challenges you struggle with. From mindfulness to hypnosis, practical (cognitive behavioral) and compassionate exploration, for brief or longer terms, together we will overcome.

Life can be difficult! But you don’t have to do it alone. Gen Z- you are in the driver's seat here and I am here to sit beside you, to help you navigate the twists and turns along your journey. With empathy and understanding, we can explore life struggles, anxiety, depression, past hurt, future goals, and more. I hold a safe space for you to process anything that life throws your way. My experience working with youth in various settings of teaching, counseling, and telehealth, has given me an understanding that Gen Z has their own set of challenges to navigate, different from other generations.

Are you feeling "stuck" or "shut down"? Perhaps you're feeling like you are on a never-ending "hamster wheel" and are having trouble making sense or finding purpose in your life. Maybe anxiety or depression are preventing you from engaging with yourself and the world in the way that you would like - more connected, more open and less "closed off." I can offer a safe space for you to process these and more life issues you are facing, freeing you from the burden of bearing them alone and perhaps learning new strategies to cope with life's stresses. Normally you're pretty good at overcoming obstacles but are finding it challenging.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious and struggling to hold on to hope? Are you feeling stuck in unproductive patterns in relationships and finding change difficult. I can help. My goal in therapy is to support you to attain, healing, growth and lasting change. I can help you feel stronger and more confident. I work with most issues and diagnoses. I use many different modalities and therapeutic approaches which are tailored to your needs and the issues you would like to work on.

Thanks for your time. I provide support for clients while holding the belief that we experience life in the context of mental, physical, emotional, spiritual and social dimensions that are inseparable; those aspects that makes someone a whole person; the people we are, the product of our personal and social interactions and contributions to them; that which makes you, and that which makes me—we; that we are equal, interconnected and are more alike than different. I think about healthcare from an integrative approach; that historical, contemporary and complimentary/alternative forms of medicine are not mutually exclusive.

I have been in the pursuit of helping people achieve a richer life and closer relationships for over 30 years. Through those years I have continued to add intense training and expertise in psychology. I work from a supportive, non-judgmental position which gives you the freedom to design goals, get feedback, and try out new thoughts and behaviors that help you achieve success. I hold a Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology from California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) at Alliant International University (www.alliant.edu). I am a licensed Psychologist in the State of Oregon.

Eva’s aim is that you’ll gain a sense of self, as you process & cultivate strategies to counteract distressing situations & emotions during your sessions. She’ll aid you in setting and attaining your therapeutic goals. She has experience working with individuals who struggle with trauma, substance use, anxiety, and depression, just to name a few. Eva offers both in-person & virtual sessions. She utilizes talk therapy, with a person-centered & strength-based approach. She integrates varying techniques and interventions to personalize sessions, and if necessary, will incorporate case management skills to locate needed resources.

I believe that the first step to healing and growth is in our admission that we need help. Asking for help is not always easy when trust may have been violated or when society tells us to be strong and hold it together when the storms of life occur. When this happens, we tend to feel alone in our emotional pain and suffering, thinking and believing that no one understands what we are going through. We all need a safe place to uncoil, work through our difficulties and feel good about ourselves and our relationships with others.
