Therapists in Oregon City, OR

I've been in practice for 20+ years and I'm passionate about helping people move forward in their lives. My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and goal oriented. Together we can discover how to break your maladaptive patterns, build on your strengths, and begin your journey to heal. In my practice, you will find openness without judgement and an environment where you can heal the wounds that may be causing low self-esteem, relationship issues, problems at work; or depression and anxiety. Together we can create the changes you want in your life.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents and their families. I believe that the counseling process is the basis from which change can occur. It is my desire to create a safe environment where individuals feel their experiences are understood and accepted. Together we will discuss treatment goals and objectives. Areas of experience include attachment, sensory processing, social skills, conflict management, ADD/ADHD, anger/opposition, anxieties, depression, grief/loss, trauma, transitions, parent-child relations and divorce/blended families.

Most of my clients come to me in the midst of some sort of transition--a difficult relationship, a new job, divorce, retirement, a move, etc.--that they are unable to navigate alone. I also see many persons confronting cancer, chronic pain or a crisis of faith. When we first meet, we will explore what brings you into therapy at this time. We will create a plan together to achieve the outcome you would like best. Many times, I find that transitions involve a certain amount of loss and grief that has not yet been acknowledged. Our goal would be to fit this transition, or life condition, large or small, into your overall life journey.

As a person of color, and who has experienced depression and anxiety, I can understand when life becomes unmanageable and we need someone to talk to about our feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. I am here to talk because I have been down this road before. I am open and always willing to discuss the problem and help with your recovery. Life is too short to be quiet about our difficulties. Come, let's build a good relationship and trust that will help us work together to achieve our goals.

In my approach, I focus on highlighting our strengths that we can use to achieve personal and/or professional growth. This process can be achieved by intentionally developing skills to be more present in our life and a self-awareness of patterns that may be ineffective for the life we want to lead. Depending on the need, I also incorporate alternative methods to support insight and growth through the use of animals (Equine Assisted Psychotherapy). I also recognize the strength it takes to seek change and appreciate how the process can look different for everyone.

Are you struggling with parts of your identity or how you experience the world? Is trauma or PTSD standing in the way between who you are and who you want to be? Have you been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, or other mood disorders? Do you feel stigma related to your challenges?

My name is Margaret McGuire. I am licensed in Oregon and California. My office is located in Canby, OR. My training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), bring therapy that is evidence based. ART provides rapid relief from intrusive memories and sensations by incorporating effective rapid eye movements. CBT focuses on changing negative thought patterns. I believe my many years of experience and compassionate approach will help you make the needed changes you are seeking. I can also offer a faith based perspective.

We each have a unique journey, set of experiences, and healing process. My view is that therapy can be a place for personal growth and insight. I specialize in working with adults and adolescents experiencing a variety of life issues including anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, ASD, life transitions, and relationship difficulties. My goal is to support your overall wellness, mental and physical.

In my experience as a mental health therapist, I have had the honor and privilege to be a part of a person’s life who is struggling with mental health. At a young age, I always had an interest and curiosity in the people I encountered in my life, and this continues to hold true to this day. I am continually amazed and inspired by the courage and resiliency of people. We are all in this beautiful life together and sometimes we just need additional support to help us navigate our complicated world. I am a “think outside the box” kind of therapist and will build treatment plans based upon your needs and what works for you.

I'm Sarah and I am a LPC Associate. My focus is on those who are suffering from depression, anxiety and stress. I hold a masters in Clinical Mental Health with a bachelors in Nutrition. I also have loving therapy dog named Colby!

Lasting healing is a subtle & gradual process, & thankfully we don't have to do it alone. In supporting your healing journey, my desire is to see you move from constriction (pain/trauma/symptoms) into expansion (pleasure/liberation/alignment with self). I believe we do this by: recognizing the barriers in our lives, finding the ways in which trauma has been stuck & stored within the body, & gently moving through stagnant pain/symptoms by establishing safety & recalibrating the nervous system together. Therapy is a beautiful co-creative process where we get to support the life you envision; one that honors your most sacred self!

I’m excited to announce the opening of my new private practice. I have 20 years of experience as a psychologist working with adults, children, and families. I specialize in EMDR and my favorite part of my job is watching people let go of the pain from trauma and seeing the guilt and shame melt away. I have plenty of openings currently and look forward to hearing from you.

I understand that life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, and seeking support is a brave and important step toward finding balance and well-being. My practice is dedicated to providing a safe, confidential, and compassionate space with an anti-oppressive, culturally humble perspective where you can embark on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. By integrating evidence-based practices with empathy and compassion, I will tailor our sessions to your unique needs, helping you gain insights, develop coping strategies, and create positive change in your life.

I believe that people seek counseling for a variety of reasons and when people are suffering from mental and or emotional pain, it can interfere with a persons overall wellbeing. Many times when a person is feeling and experiencing pain, this can make a person feel disconnected from others. I believe that when a person reaches out for help and support, this is the first step in the healing process. Through establishing and building a therapeutic relationship, based on congruence, unconditional positive regard, and empathetic understanding, I can help facilitate a place to foster healing, personal growth, change, and self discovery.

Are you struggling? Experienced Trauma? Wondering why this is still happening? Maybe I can help! With the belief that every person enters therapy with strengths, we will work together to build upon that foundation and learn about strengths that you might not be aware of just yet. I understand how difficult it is to feel comfortable with a new therapist while discussing past traumatic experiences, so I place a lot of importance in building up a rapport and therapeutic alliance.
