I have practiced as a licensed psychologist in the state of Oregon since 2014. I graduated from Adler University in Chicago, Illinois, a program focusing on social justice in psychology. My specialty areas include depression, anxiety, trauma, family dynamics, infertility, and identity development. I warmly welcome the LGBT community and have experience in working through the coming out process, letters for gender affirming surgery, and relationship dynamics. I work with adults 18 and up.
I use a psychodynamic perspective in therapy, meaning that I am skilled in helping my clients discover connections between past events and current behaviors. In this way we can work toward understanding this link, and undo the traps laid by our past. I also employ strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, research in trauma and neuropsychology, and Existential/Humanistic therapeutic approaches.
I am a board certified family physician providing primary care with special focus on gender affirming care for adolescents and adults.

I am a licensed psychologist with an educational emphasis in health psychology. Historically, I trained alongside certified nurse-midwives and family practice practitioners, primarily in Migrant Farm Worker clinics. I have specialized interest and experience in working with anxiety, depression, identity development, and adjustment, as well as gender-inclusive health issues across the lifespan, including perinatal care, infertility and pregnancy loss, birth trauma, reproductive health disorders (Endometriosis, PCOS, pelvic pain, etc.), and menopause.
I practice from a relational, attachment-oriented approach, utilizing interventions informed by psychodynamic theory, self-compassion techniques, Internal Family Systems, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). During a visit with me, you can expect to be listened to without judgment and met with respect and compassionate curiosity to deepen your understanding of self and relationship patterns. We may also engage in collaborative problem-solving and practice various evidence-based symptom-reduction techniques. I welcome the LGBTQ+ community, and I work primarily with adults ages 18+.

I am a licensed psychologist in Oregon specializing in psychodynamic psychotherapy. This approach is evidence-based and offers a comprehensive, in-depth explanation of being human: why we do what we do; why we want what we desire; and how we become the people we become. Symptoms such as inhibitions, depression, and anxiety often have roots that go deeper than normal awareness can reach, which is how therapy can be beneficial. Through a safe and trusting therapy relationship, we can discover paths toward the emotional freedom necessary to make substantive, lasting changes, and heal from past traumas.
My specialty areas include depression, anxiety, trauma, family dynamics, relational pain, distressing emotions, infertility, life transitions, and identity development. I strive to create a safe, respectful, and nonjudgmental therapy approach where meaningful and lasting change is possible. If you are considering therapy, I encourage you to schedule an initial consultation where we can identify areas of strength as well as areas of desired improvement. I tailor treatment to your unique needs and focus on generating positive change through the therapy relationship. I welcome the LGBTQ+ community, and I work primarily with adults ages 18+.
I am a licensed psychologist with experience working in a variety of settings including community mental health, university counseling, medical clinics, and group practices.

I am a licensed psychologist with experience working in a variety of settings including community mental health, university counseling, medical clinics, and group practices. My approach is one of genuineness, empathy, and a non-judgmental stance that allows a safe, trusting relationship to develop over time.
I enjoy working with individuals who are seeking support with concerns such as self-esteem, family dynamics, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and identity development. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming provider and, in particular, have considerable experience providing gender affirming care.
I primarily practice from a Relational Psychodynamic or Interpersonal lens, but I incorporate interventions from a variety of theoretical orientations to tailor my approach to align with the unique needs and personality of each individual.
I enjoy working collaboratively. At times, this may mean working together to find relief from symptoms or working towards gaining a better understanding of patterns which have developed through the years, are rooted in past experiences, and are replaying in the present. My goal is to provide a space in which you can feel safe freely exploring all aspects of yourself and openly expressing thoughts, emotions, memories, fantasies, dreams, conflicts, and whatever else you may desire. Ultimately, I will invite you to use the time and space as you would like and at a pace that feels right for you.
I primarily work with adults ages 18+.

I am a licensed psychologist in the state of Oregon and provide depth-oriented psychotherapy to individuals from adolescence through adulthood. My areas of clinical interest and experience include depression and anxiety, trauma, dissociative disorders, identity development, life transitions, family of origin concerns, interpersonal and relational concerns, grief/loss, and neurodivergent-affirming care, particularly for young adults or adults on a journey of being diagnosed with neurodivergent conditions later in life, such as ADHD or Autism.
My therapy approach is rooted in contemporary psychodynamic theory, interwoven with mind-body awareness and a trauma-informed lens. I warmly welcome the LGBTQ+ community and seek to meet you wherever you may be at in understanding yourself or your identities. I strive to be a co-creator, advocate, and vision-holder along-side you in your therapy process, using my dynamic methodology to help you better understand the history and function of your concerns and allow for the emergence of new and expansive ways of connecting with yourself and others.

I am a Qualified Mental Health Provider supervised by licensed psychologist Dr. Lola White. I completed my PhD in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University in 2023. I offer individual therapy and psychological assessment for adults. I consider counseling a creative space in which we collaborate to understand your interpersonal patterns, explore your emotions, build an individualized set of coping skills, and create accountability for working toward your goals. I am an integrative therapist, meaning that I use tools and frameworks from various approaches to counseling based on your unique needs, identities, and lived experiences. My work is often informed by Relational Cultural Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Interpersonal Process Therapy, Mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Whether you are seeking support for depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, identity exploration, career, creativity, trauma, or any of the other challenges life can bring, I am looking forward to being a source of support, curiosity, and compassion. Much of my research and clinical work has focused on LGBTQ+ mental health and sense of queer community, and I warmly welcome working with LGBTQ+ community members here at Mangata Wellness.

I am a 4th-year doctoral candidate, working on completing my PsyD in clinical psychology focused on adult populations. When entering the therapeutic space, my goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment for clients to be curious about themselves, explore their relationship with their emotions, and discover the values that are most important in their lives. I am interested in working with a wide variety of concerns, such as trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, identity exploration, sexuality, performance, etc. As a clinician, I work from a trauma-informed, values-based perspective that utilizes techniques from an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and the Internal Family Systems model.
Healing is different for every person. I strive to work collaboratively with clients to find the best path toward healing that fits their needs and works for where they are in their season of life.

I am a 4th-year Doctoral student in the Clinical Psychology program at Pacific University with an Adult emphasis. As a BIPOC clinician, I am interested in working with adolescents and adults from all walks of life and enjoy working with varying issues from Depression, ADHD, PTSD, Anxiety, etc. I am currently trained from an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach but I pull from various modalities such as Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Liberation Psychology, and others.

I am a 3rd-year doctoral student in the adult emphasis of the Clinical Psychology program at Pacific University. I provide services under the supervision of Dr. Lola White, and my services include providing psychological assessments and therapy services to adults and older individuals. I am open to working with clients with various concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, personality disorders, ADHD, and others. I strive to use a person-centered psychodynamic approach as I believe the most important factor in creating a good therapy outcome for my clients is establishing a relationship with them that is safe and judgement-free. In addition, I do incorporate interventions from other therapy approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), and others, as I believe an integrative approach to mental health helps clients determine what works best for them.
