A little about me...
I'm a Licensed Therapist in the states of Oregon & Washington, I'm the owner of Buried Moon Counseling PLLC, a crisis and trauma therapist, foster youth advocate, and former foster youth myself. I earned my Master of Arts in Psychology with dual emphases in Marriage and Family Therapy and Professional Clinical Counseling at Brandman University (Chapman University System) in Riverside, CA, and my Bachelor of Arts in Social Science, Minor in Sociology from Ashford University. I have worked in the mental health field in various roles since 2012, and specializes in healing foster care and adoption trauma, PTSD, self-harm and abuse.
When I'm not working, I'm drawing and painting, wandering the forest or sitting by the water.
