Hi, I'm Kendyl (she/her) and I'm glad you found me here!
​
After majoring in Sociology and Psychology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, I went on to complete a Master of Social Work degree at Washington University in St. Louis. I have been licensed as a Clinical Social Worker since 2007, first in Missouri and now in Oregon (license #L7527) and Washington (license #LW61088548). I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.
​
I have a deep admiration for the strength and resilience of human beings. This is what drew me to social work initially and keeps me passionate about it to this day.
I treat adults with a variety of mental health needs but I have a special interest in supporting people living with or affected by HIV and AIDS, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those who find themselves anywhere along the reproductive health spectrum, including but not limited to experiences around infertility, abortion, adoption, pregnancy, and post-partum transitions. I consider it a privilege to provide letters of support for gender-affirming medical care.
​
When I'm not working, you can usually find me spending time with my kids, enjoying live theater, or soaking in the natural beauty that surrounds us here in the PNW.
