Hi, I'm Dr. Emily Haygeman, Psychologist and Owner of Empower Psychological Services. I work as a Licensed Psychologist in Oregon and Utah. Through a range of modalities- including individual therapy, family therapy, and psychological evaluation, I offer opportunities for client empowerment. You will notice I do not mention services aimed at "fixing" a problem or "improving" yourself. That is because I believe that each of my clients already has, within and around them, the tools they need in order to heal. Where I come in is to offer my knowledge of "what works" based on the scientific evidence, alongside my compassionate approach to children, teens, young adults, and families.  

Who I Work With (not limited to): Neurodivergent and autistic individuals, children and teens dealing with anxiety and depression, those seeking diagnostic clarity through Psychological Evaluation.
