Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Beaverton, OR

I’m a therapist who wants you to feel more at home in your life and emotions. I know reaching out can feel scary, especially when life feels uncertain or suddenly different, so I focus on creating a space that feels calm, safe, and truly supportive. I speak English and Spanish, and I deeply respect each person’s story, culture, and values as we work together.

I've been a mental health therapist for 8 years and work with childhood trauma, relationship/attachment issues, and spirituality. I am working on becoming a certified sex therapist. I also like to blend in mindfulness and body based healing practices with clients.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than two decades of experience in the mental and behavioral health field. Throughout my career in Northern California and Southern Oregon, I have helped individuals and families navigate life’s challenges while fostering meaningful growth and connection, providing compassionate, strengths focused care to individuals and families throughout the region. For the past 12 years I worked as a Mental Health Therapist in school-based health centers, supporting students and families in developing healthier relationships, strengthening emotional resilience, and improving overall well-being. I earned my Master of Social Work in 2015 and became a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in 2022.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience in mental health care, supporting individuals across inpatient and outpatient settings. Through my work, I have cared for clients with a wide range of needs, including chronic and severe mental health conditions, and I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate symptoms while trying to maintain daily life.

My care philosophy is centered on partnership. Treatment is not about taking over your care, but about working with you to explore your symptoms, goals, and values. Together, we develop a treatment plan that feels respectful, personalized, and empowering. If you have concerns or hesitations about medication, we will discuss all available options openly and thoughtfully, moving at a pace that feels right for you.

I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, OCD, and other mood and thought-related conditions. During the initial session, we focus on understanding your concerns, reviewing your history, and identifying practical steps toward improvement. Care may include psychiatric evaluation, medication management when appropriate, brief psychotherapy, education, and ongoing support.

I believe mental health care should feel supportive, clear, and collaborative—not rushed or overwhelming.

You do not have to face these challenges alone. My role is to help you reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and regain balance so you can function at your best and move forward with confidence and stability.

I have 26 years of experience dealing with individuals, couples, families in therapy. We will work together to develop plans that are unique and right for you.

I love working with folks who have lived a life of being misunderstood and feeling "alien" so they can finally experience acceptance and confident authenticity.
