Welcome to Deep Currents Trauma Therapy

---

I started working in mental health in 2010. During this time I was working on my Bachelor's Degree in Social Work and did a variety of things that emersed me in my field of work. I worked in group homes aiding people with a variety of physical, intellectual disabilities and who were facing a variety of mental health symptoms.  I also served with a community organization called 2Great4Hate to help bring equality to the community I was living in at the time. I did part time work on a research team that was studying fellow veterans and their experiences. I did volunteer work at a day treatment program for those struggling with severe persistent mental illnesses.  I later worked at this agency and helped to build it into a duel diagnosis treatment facility. This expanded my understanding and ability to help those with not just mental illnesses, but those struggling with addictions.

I continued my journey at this agency as I pursued my Masters Degree in Social Work and had done individual counseling for mental health, substance abuse and groups around various topics and needs of the patients at this agency, such as grief groups, skills building, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), etc.

I later started working for the State of Idaho as part of their crisis team. Providing a variety of individual and group therapy for members of the community without insurance. I had provided comprehensive mental health assessments for the courts as my role as a designated examiner, where we evaluated mental health needs for those placed on mental health holds. I had also started a program to aid county jails with mental health services while I was working for the State of Idaho.

In 2021 I moved to Oregon and started providing individual Counseling and later transitioned to working as a behavioral health consultant . As a behavioral health consultant I have worked with a wide range of ages with a variety of physical and mental health symptoms. 

In 2025 I decided I wanted to open my own private practice, so I created Deep Currents Trauma Therapy. I love the work that I do and I strive to provide my clients with quality care.  If you feel I could be a good fit for you please reach out. If you feel someone you know could benefit from working with me encourage them to reach out to me.
