Eden Baron-Williams Named 2023 Graduate Student Commencement Speaker

Eden Baron-Williams is graduating with a Master of Arts in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy with a specialization in Sexualities. In addition to her Master’s, Eden is completing training in Somatic Attachment Therapy through The Embody Lab in which she is receiving official certification. In Fall 2023, Eden will be opening the doors to her private practice, Creative Belonging Psychotherapy where she will be providing therapy for individuals, couples, and hosting group therapy.

Eden’s journey at Lewis & Clark College included working as the Graduate Assistant for The Office of Health Promotion & Wellness in which she trained advocates in trauma-informed sexual assault response and taught a Sexual Health & Wellness course to undergraduate students. Eden hopes to continue teaching in the topics of psychology and social justice alongside her private practice. Eden also plans to continue writing throughout her career, which will include writing for her therapy practice in the form of blogs and articles, and has plans to write a novel in the years to come! Outside of the therapy room, Eden can be found frolicking in her garden with her husband and their two dogs, hiking the forests of the Pacific Northwest, planning a road trip excursion, getting involved in creative projects, and cooking for loved ones.

The graduate school’s commencement ceremony will take place Sunday, June 4, 2023 at Lewis & Clark. Complete details can be found on the graduate school commencement web site.
