I'm very passionate about the benefits of ketamine therapy and I'd love to walk with you down this new path. If you're looking for an alternative to only talk-therapy or antidepressant medication, you've come to the right place. In my experience, ketamine offers the opportunity to change your brain, and your life, much more quickly than traditional means. I've personally witnessed the benefits and am so excited for the opportunity to help you integrate the use of psychedelics into counseling.Background information: I've been seeing clients since my internship began in 2010. After graduating with my Master of Arts in Counseling in 2011, I began my career in private practice. I also began working in crisis services that year. My expertise expanded to working in an Emergency Department with our most vulnerable population, which I found exciting and fulfilling. I have worked as an Adjunct Professor at George Fox University, teaching Master's level counseling students, and have offered a variety of trainings and educational resources to various clinics. As my career progressed, I also began offering Clinical Supervision to interns and Professional Counselor Associates working toward licensure. I specialize in trauma, but I also have several other sub-specialties. I am currently licensed in the State of Oregon as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Rates per session vary depending upon insurance, whether in or out-of-network. My private-pay rate is $220 for an Intake Assessment, and $190/session thereafter. I look forward to learning more about your needs and how I can best guide you toward healing.
