As a therapist, I specialize in addressing trauma, especially religious trauma, and suicidal ideation. As an existentialist and humanist, I know that traumatic events and suicidal ideation are an understandable part of the human experience. My focus is to support you as you find your hope, expand your support system, and learn new coping skills.
I graduated with my Master’s in Social Work (MSW) from Northwest Nazarene University in 2022. I have been counseling under supervision since 2021 and my work experience is as eclectic as my therapy style; from hospitals to substance use rehabs to community mental health.
As a person, I am non-binary and my pronouns are they/them/theirs. I am an existentialist philosopher, a lover (and sometimes hater) of humanity, a pagan witch, and a pet parent to my deaf bullweenie Lapis Lazuli. When I’m not providing therapy, I’m playing dungeons & dragons, listening to music, and taking trips to the Oregon Coast!
Hi there, my name is Ernest.
