Hi, I’m AJ. I’m a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, youth, and families.
You might be feeling anxious, depressed, stuck or overwhelmed. Maybe you're facing something painful—loss, addiction, past trauma—or finding it hard to connect with others. Whatever you're carrying, you don’t have to carry it alone.
I have worked with clients and their families in various capacities for the past 12 years. I have found that I love helping people heal from past traumas and overcome whatever is holding them back. Through my training, I have found that the brain and body have incredible healing mechanisms hardwired into them. I am honored to be able to help others unlock those healing aspects and to help people enjoy their lives more fully. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Religious Studies and later completed my Master of Arts in Counseling at Multnomah University in Portland, Oregon. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Oregon and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington.
Board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of experience in mental health providing holistic psychiatric evaluations, thoughtful medication management and supportive care for adults (18-65) across Oregon.
Over my nursing career I have worked supporting adults and veterans across the psychiatric care continuum, I’ve worked in high-acuity emergency rooms, inpatient units, outpatient clinics, and substance use recovery programs. This breadth of experience provides me with a rare, 360-degree view of mental wellness. It allows me to pinpoint root issues quickly, integrate thoughtful medication management with real-world coping strategies, and partner with you to build lasting stability.
I am offering treatment for Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, PTSD, Mood disorders, Identify and life transitions. LGBTQ+/, Queer Latina & Hispanic.
