Get To Know Me
In what ways does your personality influence your approach to therapy?
So much! I feel that it's important to allow myself to bring my personality into my work, in order to ensure I am being an authentic human. It's important to me that we make a human connection, I'm not a therapy robot! So, you can expect some humor, a relaxed but engaged environment, cultural references and unique metaphors.
In what ways do your life philosophy and treatment philosophy overlap?
I think it's impossible to separate the two. This is the reason I chose to become a social worker, to help others and to act on my values of social justice and equity.
How does collaboration with other providers play into your work?
I feel so fortunate to have a large community of social workers and radical mental health providers that have so shaped my work and approach to this work. I really value mutuality and sharing power, I have learned so much from others- especially those of other professions and education levels. Truly, the best teachers have been the folks I've been able to work with.

Professional Background
LicensureOregon, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, L10397
Education
Portland State University, Master of Social Work, Clinical Social Work, 2017 — I chose social work due to the holistic approach, helping me view individuals and their struggles in the context of our broader society and culture. I specialized in Clinical Social Work, interned doing mediation for couples going through divorce and child custody issues, and a second internship working with young people experiencing a first episode of psychosis. I also studied abroad for several months in Ghana, doing community social work with the psychiatry unit at a local hospital.
Work HistoryKnowing I would likely want to become a therapist, I specifically chose to become a social worker because I appreciated the holistic and macro perspective this background gives me in service of the individuals I work with. I have experience working in many different environments, with diverse individuals from various walks of life. Some of the settings and populations I have worked with include supporting transition-aged youth in their independence goals as they experience significant mental health challenges, mediation for couples working toward divorce and child custody agreements, director of an outpatient clinic for those experiencing mental health and substance abuse challenges, management and therapy services at a residential supported housing facility, and working with those experiencing a first episode of psychosis or extreme states. I have never been a traditional outpatient therapist, meeting with folks in an office. Most of my work has been conducted in people’s homes, going for walks or getting coffee. I am continuing the non-traditional approach of telehealth, as I find it helps me reach more people and allows me to wear sweatpants and slippers to work.
If you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Reach out today to schedule a session.
