Meet Chance

Chance is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Level II Certified Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner located in Portland, Oregon.

  • Deep Dreamer.
    Sun Seeker.
    Ocean Dweller.
    Whole-hearted psychotherapist.

All too often, conventional psychotherapy approaches over-emphasize the “talking” part of talk therapy and leave the body out of the therapy experience.

Chance’s approach gently invites the body back into psychotherapy as a vital part of trauma recovery and supporting menstrual related-mood challenges.

  • Attachment/Developmental Trauma
