Canyon Medical Center

I cannot express enough the gratitude that I have for this incredible care team. In their own words, "Canyon Medical Center is Portland Oregon's only naturopathic Birth Center & Primary Care Clinic, making our facility one that truly offers complete and convenient care for people and families of all ages."

I wish I had my own babies at this clinic. Look at that fun loving, knowledgeable and sweet birthing team! My family is fortunate enough to call some of these doctors our own. The personal attention that we receive at each office visit goes above and beyond the typical care you might find elsewhere.

My hat is off to the wonderful front office staff and administrative workers! They keep the wheels turning so many families may continue to receive exceptional services at their warm and welcoming medical clinic. For more information about the services they provide, please visit Canyon Medical Center's Website or call them directly at (503) 252-8125.

I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to photograph some office staff and headshot photos with this amazing, professional and personable team.

The Next Brene Brown

The other day I told my story in depth to another new therapist that I've been seeing for a couple months now. It was shared without tears, stated without question, spoken matter of factly.

God, I love my new therapist. She went on to explain that as we tell our stories and start to open up about the traumas that we have suffered through, we begin to understand better and normalize tragedies that women (and men too) everywhere face. We begin to understand that there hasn't been something wrong with us, but there was a lot of wrong done to us. I said, "Yeah, Brene Brown also had a break down and look where she is now!" She is doing so much great work that im...

Today I Could Have Been Married for More Than Half my Lifetime

I don't know how I got there or for how long I had been standing within the frame of the door. All I know is that my arms were reaching high over my head and I was pushing against all odds, and against the weight of the crumbling building around me. There were holes in the ceiling and cracks in the walls. The whole structure was shaking, but I stood there with defiant desperation. I would not let it fall. My feet were firmly planted and every ounce of my strength was invested into a false hope of holding up what would have surely crushed me had his arm not reached in and saved me.

My dreams, my hopes, my effort, all that I had fought so hard for, everything the building had meant to me. It all came crumbling down. I wanted to be angry, and only briefly felt an overwhelming sadness, before I realized that my life had been spared. I could have been c...
