I have worked for the past 20 years in both community mental health and inpatient treatment settings, including having worked at the Oregon State Hospital for the past 13 years. During this time I have worked with a great many individuals from different socioeconomic, racial, cultural, religious, gender identity, and sexual preference backgrounds. Examples of the most common presenting difficulties I have worked with include a wide variety of mood and anxiety disorders, as well as substance, physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. Additionally, I most often met with people who have complex and multi-layered problems, including being diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, Major Depression, PTSD, Personality Disorders, as well as Schizophrenia and Schizoaffective Disorders among others. It is a privilege to help guide and share in the journey of self growth, discovery, and healing. Let me work for you today to find balance in a complex world.
