Born and raised in Oregon, I earned my Bachelor's of Psychology from Western Oregon University in 2008. Before earning my master's degree, I worked in Children's Mental Health where I learned a lot about family of origin, attachment, trauma, and became familiar with resources in the Willamette Valley. After earning my Master's in Social Work at Portland State University in 2014, I worked for 7 years at a local hospital in Palliative Care as a Medical Social Worker. I started my private practice here in Salem in 2020. I have obtained training in CBT, mindfulness, goal directed work, motivational interviewing, EMDR, and IFS (internal family systems). I specialize in working with people with anxiety, trauma, attachment difficulties, and life transitions. I do not have a cookie cutter approach to working with individuals. I prefer to get to know the person, their story, their strengths and needs, and we work together to determine a treatment plan that makes the most sense for them. I do actively have a waiting list, which ranges from 3-6 months depending on the time of the year, and only see clients between the hours of 9am and 4 pm, typically on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I have occasional Monday and Friday appointments available as well.
