Teletherapy for Eugene, OR

Are you in a place where you need to talk about gender identity and/or trans issues? Or maybe you identify as trans, gender nonconforming, gay, lesbian, bisexual, or queer and need to talk about other issues but don't want to have to educate your therapist. I can help. As a therapist, I create an environment of safety, respect, and empowerment for you, and I appreciate the powerful influence of culture, community, and beliefs that make your experience unique. I believe you have the inner strength and resources you need. I am here to be your collaborator in healing and change.

I have openings starting in September, mostly in morning (Mon/Wed) and on Telehealth. New Growth Begins...Let's Start the Conversation. Over twenty years of experience as licensed clinician working alongside children, young adults, and adults who have presented with a variety of mental health needs, adjustment concerns, transitions or life issues. I work with all ages and developmental stages of life. I do have specialty training providing play therapy along with seeing young adults and adults. I provide Clinical Supervision at the post graduate level for those practitioners working as Associates toward licensure.

Accepting New Clients‭‭ Serenity Mental Health is an independent practice of caring Mental Health Professionals who understand that life’s challenges can be daunting and that people deserve quality mental health care that addresses their individual needs. Together, with a member of our licensed professional staff we will develop a plan to address hardships in a supportive and compassionate manner.

Accepting new clients! It takes courage to embrace vulnerability and reach out for support. That's an invaluable asset, and in our work together, we will draw upon the strengths you already possess to address the stressors that emerge. Whether you're navigating significant life transitions, grappling with anxiety and depression, or belong to the LGBTQIA+ community striving to navigate an all-too-often unwelcoming world, I am here to provide assistance. In therapy, you will acquire resources to ground your active nervous system, reduce reactivity in your relationships, and uncover the profound wisdom of your true nature when a

It feels like no matter how hard you try, that somehow you always end up right back where you started. Whether it is trauma, anxiety, depression, being plagued by nagging self-doubts, or life just feeling hard, it is taking a toll. The bending and contorting yourself to be what others think you should be leaves you feeling anxious or depressed and disconnected from yourself. And then there are those experiences that you just don’t talk about. The shame and guilt feel like too much. Every day feels harder than the last and you are so ready for that to change. Ready for healing and reclaiming yourself.

May 2024: I am currently accepting new clients! We all need connection. But sometimes making and maintaining connections is hard. When we’re dealing with difficult situations or trying to protect ourselves from pain, we can get distracted, distant, or shut down; in other words, disconnected. Whatever brought you here today, I invite you to consider whether feeling more connected - with your inner experiences, the important people in your life, or the activities you’re engaged in - could help.

It is breathtaking how resilient we are. I have witnessed many a phoenix rising from the ashes in my work with people who experience mental health & addiction issues, (co-occurring disorders.) I specialize in assisting you toward your goals with an integrated focus on mind, body, & spirit. My approach is a conscientious balance of kindness and honesty. For years I have been honored to support people through tough times. I am an intuitive, empathic listener who can support your most courageous hard work. Have you had the experience of being seen, heard, understood, & empowered to work toward achieving your objectives?

My therapeutic philosophy is that it is very possible, with the right kind of support, to recover from most mental health and life challenges. Let’s have a discussion about what you want to achieve, and we can come up with a plan that will help you live your best life. I treat the people I work with as "people first," rather than labels, cases, or subjects. Since I have been involved with healing work, the definitions for "disorders" has continually changed. Because I believe in the absolute and intrinsic beauty and worth of human beings, I'm more likely to frame something as a challenge or a difficulty than as disorder.

I believe that everyone deserves to live a life that leaves them excited to wake up every morning to pursue their dreams. Each of us possess the capacity to change and grow to reach our goals. We can become untethered from behaviors, thoughts, emotions, and personal narratives that no longer serve us, and we can enjoy that process along the way. Simply put, I don’t believe that therapy has to be a painful thing, but something we approach in partnership with curiosity and nonjudgment.

Hypnosis puts you in touch with your inner resources, allowing you to bring more of what you want into your life. Hypnosis is safe and gentle. It is the fastest and most effective way to make positive changes in your life; either physical, emotional or spiritual. Hypnosis has been scientifically proven to enhance your immune system, reduce tension and stress, lower your blood pressure, improve your entire circulatory system, improve focus and concentration, elevate your feelings of self-esteem, and release you from addictive behaviors. I have been practicing hypnosis and guided imagery in Eugene, OR for 30 years.

Accepting new clients. I work with both individuals and couples. Areas of individual focus include coping with depression/anxiety, sleep issues, family or relationship struggles, addiction and recovery, life and career transitions, sexuality, mid-life issues, and emerging adults struggling with academics or early adulthood issues. In my work with couples I work on issues ranging from communication/conflict, intimacy, life transitions, rebuilding connection, family dynamics, and relational betrayals/infidelity. I draw from the Gottman’s work, Esther Perel’s work, Narrative Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy among others.

FULL until JULY - Schedule a free consult today! That feeling you get when you can’t remember the last time you felt an intimate connection with your partner; it’s deep and it’s painful. Lying in bed, crying yourself to sleep as quietly as you can just hoping your partner reaches their hand out to hold you. You’re stuck swimming in your head about how this happened, and constantly trying to figure out if it’s you or if it’s them. Either way, it’s terrifying to think you may never feel that kind of connection again, no matter how or why. All you know for sure is you so desperately want it to change.

Are you someone whose gender, sexuality, or relationship structure falls outside of the mainstream? Have you experienced trauma? (and yes, discrimination and oppression are traumatizing!) Perhaps you're struggling with anxiety, depression, dissociation, low-self worth, motivation issues, or relationship challenges. Maybe you seek a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore your identity. Perhaps you're striving to understand your desires and establish boundaries. Let's talk!

"We all have our stuff." I heard a wise woman say this years ago. We might feel overwhelmed by all the expectations of life - of adulthood. We might be carrying the weight of something terrible that has happened in our lives. We might feel deeply alone - even when we are around other people. Maybe we feel out of control or lacking discipline, struggling to break habits that we know are bad for us. Whatever the case may be, you are not alone. Lots of people come to therapy. Lots of people feel much better after trying it.

We are a team of 60 counselors who are accepting new patients and have a team of administrators coordinating services to get you seen quickly. --Life isn't easy or often how we hoped it to be-- We have all faced obstacles at some point in our lives and will continue to do so because of events often outside of our control. There are many circumstances that can overwhelm: Depression; Anxiety; Anger; Grief/Loss; Violence; Bullying; Trauma; Work; Family life; Divorce; Behavioral issues; Worry; School; this list is endless. Whether they are past, present or future, sometimes it is nice to have someone to support you.

Please contact me to join waitlist. I am a Couples & Family Therapist at Alive Holistic Counseling, supporting individual and relational clients working through trauma, anxiety, depression, communication and relationship challenges, codependency, grief, identity exploration, and changes. The therapy process is as unique as the individual and I collaboratively work in helping you achieve the change you want to see. I take a holistic, systemic approach using Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, and EMDR to understand each client and their context to create a supportive and empowering space to explore together.

Hi there! I am Sunny, and I am an EMDR certified therapist. I am accepting new clients for Telehealth sessions via phone or video. I know that anxiousness can be a part of starting therapy, and reaching out for support can be the greatest hurdle to getting connected. I offer a space that is welcoming, inclusive, affirming, and dedicated to seeing you as human, not as flawed. I am best reached via email, as I can respond more quickly to requests for counseling. My wheelhouse incorporates neurodivergence, trauma, depression, and anxiety. I am also an ally of the LGTBQIA+ community, and I value the narratives of all walks of life.

I am accepting new clients. I help clients who seek to increase their strengths, awareness, openness, flexibility, intelligence (IQ and EQ), resiliency, create empowering processes and solutions leading to meaningful life engagement, and improving quality of life. I have worked with all ages, backgrounds and issues, individuals, couples and families. I have found the best predictor of effective therapy is how well the client connects with the therapist. I am open to working with all people, cultures and conditions.

I currently have openings! My mission as a therapist is to assist clients in accessing their inner wisdom to form a meaningful response to the challenges that arise in life. I believe relationship is a channel through which great healing can occur and it is often through the therapeutic relationship that this healing can begin. I work with individuals, couples, families and groups who are struggling with a variety of issues that include depression, anxiety, relationship impasse and eating disorders. Please feel free to contact me with any questions if you feel I may be of assistance.
