Life's demands oftentimes create an emotional burden in a person's life. Left unchecked, these demands can manifest themselves in a myriad of ways, such as stress, depression anxiety, panic, relationship issues as well as other. By becoming more aware of the choices available, as well as the means to employ them, you will have an opportunity to learn strategies to more effectively cope with the issues you're facing. Through working together we will find constructive methods to alleviate the pain of the various stressors that affect your life.

Accepting new clients! Life is full of transitions and can tug at our strings in search for identity and times of uncertainty that can increase anxiety, depression, and trigger previous trauma.I work with both children and adults, offer parenting skills for that needed relief. Children can feel changes and try to adapt without the words to express how they feel that can create additional tension. Put this together, it can become a cesspool of emotions for both the parent(s) and child. My personal experience of living abroad for 20 years and raising 5 children, helped me to understand transitions and their complexities.

** Cascade Counseling and Consulting is a dedicated and compassionate group therapy practice, and we have immediate openings to support you! ** After more than 10 years working in the behavioral health field as a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC), I earned my Masters in Mental Health Counseling from Portland State University and am an independently Licenced Professional Counselor (LPC). I enjoy working with people on topics of adjustment and change, work life balance, mental health symptoms and substance use. I also enjoy supporting clients in long-term recovery to reclaim their lives.

Seeking therapy is a courageous act. In the context of a safe, therapeutic relationship, I work to assist you in developing a greater sense of self-awareness and a clear internal sense of what is right for you as a unique individual. I assist you in discovering constructive ways to cope with challenges and to manage difficult feelings. I may also be proactive in respectfully challenging perceptions and behaviors that may contribute to your suffering.

My name is Wendy Frankle. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Grief Recovery Specialist, and a member of the American Counseling Association. My specialty and passion is working with adolescent girls and their families as well as Grief Recovery. I have 19+ years experience working with children and their families ages 6-18 years who have emotional difficulties as well as a wide range of diagnosis. I will strive to provide a safe, nurturing environment where we can work together to plant the seeds necessary for your health, hope and happiness.

So, your relationship with food has brought you here, but maybe you’re unsure if what you consider some form of overeating warrants seeking professional help. You don't have to suffer from anorexia and/or bulimia to "deserve" treatment and support. People who are enduring binge and emotional eating are often blamed (by themselves and others) for their use of food. If this is you, you may believe you have no "will power" and your relationship with food/body is your "fault". You aren't yet aware there are reasons (always other than will power) that explain your experience with food/body. You are not to blame.

I wholeheartedly believe people have the ability to create an authentic and meaningful life worth living. I'd love to work with you to create balance in your life, clarify your values, and identify unhelpful thinking patterns that are connected to your emotions and behaviors. I have a collaborative, strengths-based approach and create a safe space to evaluate the narrative of your life, support you in making edits, and in assigning meaning to your experiences. Whether you are going through a new life transition or have felt like life has been happening to you for a long time, I'd be honored to support you on the path to wholeness.

Human Nature has adapted, grown and embraced change throughout our history. As an adult, or couple in a relationship, you can explore tools to meet your specific needs. By identifying old triggers and tapes, you can let go of what you have outgrown. Your previous strengths can carry you from who you have been, to who you choose to be. With this old resilience, you can allow change and expand your experiences. You can step forward toward a new vision of you. Choose a "do-over". Learn to accept your changes with self-compassion and a renewed curiosity for self expression. Move from resistance to acceptance to simple joys.

Suffering happens in isolation. The power of human connection and telling your story can be healing. I believe we're all incredibly resilient at our cores, though this can be overshadowed and challenged by expected and unexpected change, difficult events & trauma, and the subsequent wading & struggling through transition that inevitably follows. I can help you work through the hard parts. Expand awareness and understanding around destructive patterns and apply practices that improve your quality of life. You can manage really overwhelming feelings, reduce pain, deepen & enjoy relationships and even rediscover peace of mind.

Have you ever wondered why you cannot stop reacting to certain situations in an ineffective way? Does this patter of problem solving leave you exhausted after reliving painful experiences that prevent you from having the healthy loving relationships you long for? If you answered yes it may be time to talk with one of our clinicians. If you have a pattern of behavior’s that make life unmanageable, we may be able to help.

My approach to therapy is based on Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). A core idea in ACT is that trying too hard to get rid of or control our emotions tends to backfire. Instead of trying to get rid of unwanted thoughts and feelings (e.g., anxiety & depression), I will help you learn to react differently to them so that you can keep your focus on living a meaningful and fulfilling life based on what’s important to you. We will work together to set meaningful goals to address your concerns–whether they relate to life transitions, depression, anxiety, body image, grief/loss, job or academic stress, or gender & sexuality.

I AM accepting clients at this time. I respond in 24 hrs from M-F. If you desire results, welcome. I offer HIPAA secure video conference and face-to-face therapy. I work with people feeling unsatisfied with their current life and emotional situations, looking for a deeper sense of fulfillment, connection, and/or balance in their lives. I help find the connection between their thoughts and feelings. I explore how desires manifest themselves as: depression, anxiety, fears, disinterest, grief, low self-esteem, etc. I also explore how these impact their body. He offers spiritual guidance and perspectives to those that wish.

By visiting this website, you most likely are facing transitions in your life and are aware that you need help. By doing so, you have walked half the way for healing. If you are feeling depressed and stuck, living with anxiety, phobias, traumas, or trapped in addiction to substance or behavior, or living in a turbulent relationship, please, do not be discouraged. Step forward and call for help. Your current situation is not all that you have in your life and you have a lot in your toolbox that you haven't utilized yet. Here I am; ready to help.

Reaching out to a therapist for support might be something you've considered for a while. It takes courage to reach out. Counseling is an aspect of healthy living that can help restore balance and peace in the day to day. The process can be exhilarating, challenging, and profoundly rewarding as you gain clarity through increased awareness. Respecting the sensitive nature of therapy, I offer a friendly atmosphere that's welcoming and supportive. I actively engage in session focusing on you and your needs. Together we identify stressors, stuck points, fears feeding anxiety, and develop inner skills which are key for mental harmony.

My professional belief is that beginning psychotherapy is like embarking on a "Hero's Journey". Clients brave facing their fears in a safe, secure environment in order to create the lives they want to live. Many times, I meet clients who think that therapy is about fixing what is "wrong" with them. I believe, however, that therapy is really more about fostering clients' ability to connect with what is "right" with them. I support people in fully embracing who and what they really are - without fears. It would be my privilege to be your guide on this journey.

Live your life more fully while enjoying better health with balance and focus. You can learn to experience relief from worry, fear and unhealthy relationships. I believe that positive growth is possible through awareness and attention to small changes in your thinking and actions. Together we can help promote healing and recovery by addressing your emotional, social, physical and spiritual needs. Most people who come in to my office wonder why they waited so long to become more healthy. My goal for you is to have a life changing and fulfilling experience and to reach your fullest potential.
