My name is Dr. Jennifer Ambriz. I am an Associate Psychologist and have provided counseling services during the past nineteen years. I have worked in a variety of settings including three years in a medical clinic setting, eight years in a Indigenous/Native American behavioral health setting, and seven years in a college/university student counseling center. Additionally, I have six years professional experience conducting psychological evaluations for Autism spectrum, ADHD/ADD, Learning Disorders, Washington state disability, etc. Furthermore, I have six years’ experience providing Equine Assisted Therapy services (www.EAGALA.org).

Additional Background Information:

I strongly value embodying a balance with my Mental, Emotional, Spiritual, and Physical well-being . Some activities I enjoy include Yoga, Hiking, Swimming, Cooking, Reading, Language learning, Spiritually Anchored Gatherings, Educational/Culturally enriching activities, and Dancing (I am learning Hula!: ). I am a very health conscious individual and mostly eat Organic Vegetarian (Sometimes will eat wild salmon, which is a culturally significant food from the Pacific Northwest).

Great day to you! I am Kim Rodgers, LICSW (15yrs.). To complete my Master’s of Social Work Degree, I served as a school counselor for grades K-9. Since then, I have worked in Corrections, the Homeless Department and the Vet Center (within the Federal Government), in a Behavioral Health Hospital, and in Community Health. I have a great deal of “outreach work” experience, both personally and professionally.

I'm Dr. Arie Greenleaf, counselor and professor with 17 years of clinical experience. I'm dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges and achieve deep, lasting change. I have a PhD from the University of Iowa and a Master's from Clemson. I work with clients of all ages, supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, and those facing major life challenges. My goal: create a safe space for you to explore, heal, and thrive. Let's work together on your journey to well-being and personal growth!

I hold a master's in marriage, couple and family counseling from George Fox, where I also focused my studies on trauma therapy through the trauma response institute. I specialize in trauma therapy through the ages, as well as family trauma therapy

I believe effective mental health care begins with trust, collaboration, and respect. My approach is empowering, compassionate, open-minded, and culturally sensitive. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where adolescents and adults feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care. I combine a holistic, whole-person perspective with evidence-based psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy to create personalized treatment plans that promote lasting wellness.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with more than 20 years of nursing experience in hospitals, outpatient clinics, private practices, community health centers, and behavioral health settings. I treat a wide range of conditions, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, psychotic disorders, and other complex mental health concerns.

My career also includes international humanitarian work with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), where I cared for individuals affected by conflict and crisis. This experience strengthened my commitment to providing compassionate, culturally responsive, and patient-centered care for people from diverse backgrounds.

In addition to my clinical practice, I am the author of several mental health publications that reflect my dedication to education, evidence-based practice, and improving patient outcomes. I currently provide comprehensive psychiatric care through Oasis Behavioral Health and Elevated Behavioral and Transitional Health.

My goal is to partner with you to develop practical, individualized strategies that improve emotional well-being, daily functioning, and overall quality of life.
