I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Oregon. I began serving in community mental health and school based mental health programs in 2010 after becoming very aware of the need for services as an adoptive parent. I am passionate about instilling hope in and providing resources to young people and families for the journey they are on. I have a wide range of post graduate training and expertise including EMDR, a wide range of trauma informed practices and hold an Adoptive and Foster Family Therapy Certificate from Portland State University.
