Specializing in EMDR treatment as well as IFS therapy, I utilize a variety of strategies to help individuals heal and adapt to their present circumstances. My strength as a therapist comes from my commitment to provide compassionate care while also bringing an element of humor to facilitate a trusting therapeutic alliance.

"Only when we are brave enough to explore darkness will we discover infinite power of our light - B.B". Through a healthier understanding of our patterns and past we will gain the ultimate goal of therapy: unconditional self-acceptance. I create a safe and respectful space for us to explore ways to reduce your suffering, while creating alignment and joy in yourself and your relationships. I continue to be inspired by the work and the progress I see my clients make every day. My goal is to empower my clients and provide them with the support and tools they need to move forward, feeling more insightful, intentional, and fulfilled.

As a therapist, my approach is grounded in empathy, compassion, and person-centered counseling. I don’t believe that therapy is a “one size fits all,” and I utilize a variety of methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Attachment Theory to provide an approach that will fit your individual needs.

Accepting new clients, in-person & telehealth! I offer relational, affirming, & approachable therapy for teens and young adults (14-21) that helps navigate the often turbulent times of adolescence & emerging adulthood. I work with young people so that they can feel less alone and more connected to a greater understanding of themselves, their joy, and how to move through hardship. As a therapist, my goal is to create a warm, open, and non-judgmental space where you can feel more understood, connected, and supported. I believe that healing happens within trusting relationships and that we shouldn’t have to go through difficulty alone.

Therapy can offer hope in the midst of depression, anxiety, trauma, stressful challenges in work, relationships, health, or other arenas of life. It can also help us respond thoughtfully and creatively rather than anxiously or destructively. I am a firm believer in learning to be open towards yourself, your relationships, and life transitions. This is a more powerful motivator than mentally beating yourself up. We'll work together to identify strengths you can use towards making important life changes, and to build coping skills to deal with difficult emotions, trust, relationship issues, and negative thoughts you might have about yourself.

Hello, I’m Latisha! I am a licensed professional counselor based in Oregon dedicated to helping individuals regain balance and clarity in their lives through education, counseling, and skills training. I earned my masters degree in community counseling (winter of 2010) to help gather tools and increase insight on mental health issues, so that I can help individuals cultivate self-care, increase their self-efficacy, and sustain their overall mental well-being. I have 13+ years experience working with clients with various issues including anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief/loss, racial fatigue, and trauma.

Sometimes it’s painful to face things about ourselves or our situations that we would rather ignore. It's worth it to face them because it gives us the opportunity to look at things from a different perspective, to ask different questions, to challenge ourselves, and ultimately to get more of what we want out of life. Understanding where we've been and how we got here is important, but in order to feel better, we often have to do something different. In therapy we can learn to identify what the options are, evaluate the risks and benefits of different options, and make the best choice for ourselves.

If you are experiencing difficulties in your relationships or you feel you are not living the life you were meant to live, I can help you.

Whatever your reason for wanting to change, please don’t wait to get yourself living the life you envision. Many people have experienced the changes you seek and I am looking forward to being a part of your success.

Dr. Brian Evans is a licensed clinical psychologist who provides therapy to adolescents and adults. He enjoys working with individuals who present with a wide range of challenges. He employs a biopsychosocial approach to understanding why people sometimes feel “stuck” and are looking for ways through their difficulties.

Hello, I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families I specialize in treating anxiety and depression. I have experience working with LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. I also enjoy working with teenage and younger clients. I see many people who are going through life transitions.

I also specialize in working with individuals who have struggles with chronic pain.
