Business Philosophy
At Cambium Counseling and Consulting, I’m passionate about helping relationships grow and thrive. Inspired by the cambium layer of a tree—the part responsible for growth and repair—I focus on strengthening the core of your connections, whether in couples, families, or organizations.
Just as trees need balanced nourishment to flourish, I believe relationships require the right mix of support, tools, and care. My mission is to be a beacon for relational living and empowerment, guiding you toward deeper connection and healing. My vision? Leading a global shift toward greater interconnectedness.
What I Stand For
I’m grounded in three core values:
Centered on Integrity: Like the heartwood of a tree, integrity is at my core.
Leading with Courage: I’m not afraid to branch out and tackle tough issues.
Fostering Joy: Because life's too short not to celebrate the beauty of connection.
I’m here to help you repair what’s been hurt, nurture growth, and cultivate relationships as strong and resilient as the mightiest trees. Let’s grow together!
About Me
I'm a relationship counselor and leadership coach dedicated to co-creating a more connected and vibrant world. With over a decade of experience, I've guided individuals, couples, and families through the complexities of their relationships.
My passion extends beyond counseling; I also lead engaging workshops for organizations like Bonneville Power Administration, BombBomb, and Women in Science PDX. Recently, I've tackled topics such as "The Happy Secret to Better Work" and strategies for overcoming Imposter Syndrome.
Background and Training
I hold a diverse educational background:
M.S. in Community Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wyoming
B.A. in Business Administration (Entrepreneurship emphasis) and B.A. in French Language from the University of Oregon
My continuous growth is reflected in my specialized training, including:
Nature-based therapies
Substance abuse recovery
When I'm not empowering others or leading workshops, I enjoy playing outdoors with my adventure spiritual partner, Scotty and our 3-year-old son. This blend of expertise, education, and personal passion enables me to foster positive change. I look forward to connecting with you!
