Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Salem, OR

Hi there-may name is Fiona Standen and I am a psychotherapist, practicing since 2001 and specializing in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of clinical experience, I bring something distinctive to mental health care: a research-informed approach grounded in real-world compassion. My background as a Sub-Investigator in psychiatric trials keeps me current with the latest treatment innovations, while my Master's from Western University of Health Sciences and ongoing Doctoral studies ensure I'm always expanding my expertise.

I specialize in the conditions that require specialized understanding: ADHD, autism, complex patients, OCD, personality disorders, PTSD/trauma, schizophrenia/psychosis disorders, and substance use disorders, alongside comprehensive treatment for depression, anxiety, panic, mood disorders, and bipolar disorder. What excites me about this work is that every client teaches me something new about resilience and recovery.

My clinical experience spans diverse settings, from outpatient care to cutting-edge research, giving me a unique perspective on evidence-based treatment. I combine thorough psychiatric evaluations using DSM-5 criteria with personalized medication management, always staying current with the latest advances in psychiatric care.

What I want you to know is this: your mental health journey matters to me both professionally and personally. I'm committed to providing care that's not just clinically excellent, but deeply respectful of your individual experience and goals.

My name is Celia and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15+ years of experience in the field. I have worked in numerous settings which has given me the opportunity to work with a wide range of individuals at various life stages and circumstances. I specialize in working with adults who struggle with anxiety and depression. My clients often seek therapy due to feeling stuck or overwhelmed. I help by working collaboratively with you to identify patterns and past events that shape your experience today.

As a PMHNP-BC, I offer medication management and therapy sessions via Telehealth Mon-Fri 0900- 19:00.

At Prosody Mental Health, my goal is to support individuals to build skills to prosper in their neurodivergent identity. As someone who received my autism diagnosis later in life, I spent a good portion of my life believing that there was something intrinsically wrong with me. In learning about my own neurodivergence, I've learned to love the way my brain works and have built skills to unmask so I can be my authentic self.

I believe that your neurodivergence is not the problem, rather having to learn how to adapt to a world that was not built for you has added undue stress and caused you to create maladaptive coping mechanisms to survive.
