Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Salem, OR

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I believe every person deserves to be heard, understood, and treated as more than a diagnosis. I take the time to understand the whole person, considering the biological, psychological, social, and lifestyle factors that influence mental health. I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, creating personalized treatment plans that support lasting wellness. My goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and confident throughout your mental health journey.

Hello! I am Renell Kumeh, an advanced practice registered nurse, with dual certification in family medicine and psychiatry, licensed in OR, WA, DC, TX, FL, NV, ND, CT, MA and pending licensures in other states. At the core of my values is treating others the way I would like to be treated.

I work with individuals navigating behavioral challenges, life transitions, grief and loss, anxiety, relationship concerns, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and a variety of other emotional and mental health concerns. With more than twenty years of experience in Christian ministry, pastoral counseling, workshop facilitation, coaching, and governmental law, I bring a diverse and compassionate perspective to my work with individuals seeking healing and personal growth.

In 2011, I returned to school to earn a Master's degree in Clinical Counseling, followed by a Doctorate in Psychology. After completing my education, I founded the iFS Center in the Eugene community, which now provides services through a secure telehealth platform.

My approach is integrative and solution-focused, combining evidence-based therapeutic practices with compassionate, individualized care.

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who holds a master’s degree in nursing from Frontier Nursing University. As an independent practitioner I can diagnose and treat mental health conditions with full prescriptive authority and order diagnostic labs as appropriate. With nearly 15 years of nursing experience, my passion for patient and family-centered care has evolved from working the on the front lines as an ICU RN during the covid-19 pandemic to addressing the mental health crisis impacting all of our communities as a nurse practitioner.

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon, providing secure telehealth therapy for adults ages 18–65 throughout both states, allowing you to access sessions from the safety of your own space. I offer both private-pay and insurance options. I specialize in supporting clients through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

I offer a calm, open, and nonjudgmental space where clients can be themselves. I am comfortable talking about difficult experiences, including relationships, grief, anger, addiction, identity, and major life changes. I also value humor, curiosity, and the interests that make each person unique. My goal is to help clients feel understood while also supporting meaningful change.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Portland State University. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use, and I bring experience from interdisciplinary behavioral health settings where care often intersects with complex life circumstances.

My approach is collaborative, direct, and rooted in the understanding that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Mental health is deeply shaped by culture, community, history, and systems of power. Part of my work is intentionally engaging in a decolonizing approach to therapy—honoring lived experience, questioning one-size-fits-all models of care, and creating space for clients to define healing on their own terms.

I integrate frameworks such as American Society of Addiction Medicine and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration as supportive tools—not rigid rules—while drawing from motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and relational work that centers respect, autonomy, and real connection.

I offer a focused practice in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), with careful attention to preparation, safety, and integration. This work is not just about the experience itself, but about making meaning of it in ways that align with your values, identity, and community.

With over 12 years of experience, Sonia Edouard, PMHNP, is a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in holistic care for adults and children facing mental health challenges. She employs a compassionate, evidence-based approach, honoring cultural diversity and individual uniqueness to foster healing and personal growth.

I have a world class education, but there is more to me than that: There have been many iterations of "Alan" over the long years of my life. There is the drug addict that has walked the clean and sober path for 33 years. There is the truck driver and the tattoo artist, the husband (married 31 years), the father, the grandfather, the great grandfather, the foster father, the step-father. There is the Buddhist and the philosopher. I am reaching out to you. There is nothing you can tell me that will offend me.

And I can write a darned good introduction too! LOL!

I hope to meet you soon!
