I believe that we are relational beings, and the pathway towards healing is through connection. Together, we can explore how our experiences impact the way we show up in our current relationships with others and ourselves. It is my role to set a trusting, compassionate and non-judgmental container that allows for deeply authentic self-expression. From this place, we can illuminate blind spots, examine coping strategies, and begin the work of healing on a nervous system level. I work with all ages and apply a combination of EMDR, parts work, play therapy, and CBT-related interventions for a wide variety of presentations.

Accepting NEW Clients (ages 18-65) as of 7/16/25 for Medication Management (I am not taking clients for therapy). Appointments are available in 2-4 weeks. Complete the Patient Inquiry Form on my website. You will receive a response the same or next day. My practice is primarily composed of adults struggling with anxiety and depression. I find that people reach out to treatment when excessive worry, low motivation, and negative thinking can lead to feeling less confident in their work, behind on tasks at home, and impacting relationships. I don't treat ADHD and I don't prescribe controlled substances, such as Xanax for anxiety.

We help people who feel sad, lonely, angry, have experienced a recent loss or life transition, and those who seek to find meaning and purpose amidst stressful, busy lives. We possess a passion for working with children, adolescents, and adults who experience difficult emotions, thoughts, behaviors, or who find it hard to connect with others.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, or challenges in your relationship with yourself or others, let's work together to uncover the tools already within you and help you move toward a place of greater clarity and connection.

As a counselor and nurse with expertise in trauma treatment I work with high-achieving individuals who are ready to cultivate more ease and tap into their inner radiance. Many of my clients are successful in their careers and personal but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, and stuck and unable to fully experience the joy and fulfillment they desire. They long to feel good, to reconnect to themselves and to create balance and peace in their lives.

As a Professional Counselor Intern I am able to offer affordable sessions in-person at our office in Bend, or via video call.
Life is an incredible journey full of excitement, joy and wonder. There are also times when life also brings us pain, difficulty and grief. I aim to create an accepting, open space where you are supported in embodying your authentic self and achieving growth as you define it. We all need opportunities to express our thoughts, feelings, concerns, and hopes freely; and to gain new insights.

Hi, my name is Linda Dreisbach, and I have created my practice to fit my client's needs based off what they have told me over the years. Often times, I hear people say, "I have put off going to therapy, because I don't want to go for years talking about something only to find it doesn't help." Or, "I have been in therapy for so long, will I ever get better? I feel so stuck!" "I go for an hour, and by the end of the session, I feel like we were just getting somewhere, and now I have to wait 1 or 2 more weeks." Sometimes people have said, "I feel life is so hard right now, I need more than one session a week."
