Hello, my name is Michaela Judah and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been working with children and families since 2002. I was Supervisor and Family Advocate at Head Start for 12 years, and a Skills Trainer at Wake Robin Day Treatment in Salem for 1 year. I obtained my BS in Human Development and Family Studies from Oregon State University in 2001. In 2017 I completed a master’s in Marriage, Couples and Family Therapy from George Fox University. I believe that people are the experts in their own life stories and strive to do the best they can, but sometimes they need a little help. I aim to bring attention to people’s strengths, which can enable them to learn about themselves, increase empowerment and have hope for their future. I engage in multiple therapeutic evidence based techniques to help people grow and heal, which manifests for them in a balanced life. When not at work, I value time with my family and enjoy traveling.
