My experience is centered on collaborating with youth, adults, and families. During these developing years and shifting dynamics, additional care for our health is needed. I work with emotional regulation, relational rifts, enhancing communication, and acceptance of self.

Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.
Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!
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.

I’m a therapist that works with 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 gained broad experience through filling various roles in three different county mental health agencies in the state of Oregon over the past twelve years. I work with individuals age 14 and up and tend to work with many in the helping professions as well as first responders. I use ACT and DBT interventions and my goal is for you to feel truly seen and heard in our sessions, and to create an environment where you feel safe and supported.
My clients are the “overthinkers” in the world...with big feelings that are hard to explain. They feel misunderstood, lonely and isolated while striving to please others at the expense of themselves. They’re exhausted, overworked, and over-stressed, feeling like they’re never enough. They have a vision for life, but aren’t sure how to bring it together, especially after a life-changing event. They're also eager for change.
Does this sound like you? If so, I warmly welcome you to my practice.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Salem
Searching for therapists in Salem starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. People look for a Salem therapist for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that fit what you are looking for.
Salem is a smaller city, so your local options may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search beyond nearby offices while keeping care with a therapist licensed in Oregon. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before you book can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in sessions.
Therapy in Salem can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you start. Headway helps you search for Salem, Oregon therapists who match your preferences and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific therapist and location. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs, compare therapist bios, and book directly when you are ready.
