Therapists in Redmond, OR

Rebecca is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Therapist who is currently taking clients in Missouri and Oregon who are struggling with depression, anxiety, and looking for support in their desired treatment goals. Rebecca specializes in walking besides clients to assist them to find their inner strength in order to overcome challenges.

I believe that every person is created in the image of God, is uniquely designed and can obtain optimum mental health if they are willing to put forth the effort. I utilize many methods of counseling including a client-centered talk therapy approach, family systems theory, cognitive behavioral therapy, and EMDR.

I offer Telehealth and in person counseling sessions. I have 25 years of mental health and addiction experience working with children, teenagers, couples, adults, and families. I use a Family Systems approach to treatment including a variety of modalities with special focus on teaching the art of mindfulness called dialectical behavioral therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I have successfully helped clients to resolve serious life problems, return to optimal functioning, meet personal and career goals, improve many intimate relationships, and to help persons to build new life skills necessary for self improvement.

All therapists have a philosophy about the nature of people, problems, and how change happens. I believe people have a natural tendency to grow and expand when offered safety and support. People can become "stuck" when ways of relating to self and to others prevent growth. Often our most early relationships shape how we see ourselves, others, the world and our felt sense of confidence in how we might navigate it. "Stuckness" for my clients may look many different ways including, anxiety, stress, depression and/or relationship distress. No matter where you are at, you are the expert of your experience, and all of you is welcome.

Are you ready to become your most authentic self? Whether you're dealing with past trauma, facing current life stressors, or battling depression or anxiety, you DO have the ability to overcome these things! I enjoy helping adults, teens, and older children (ages 10+) develop resiliency and hone their strengths to overcome life's challenges and become their best, most authentic selves. I especially enjoy working with veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and their families.

My passion is working with couples and families. I seek to create an environment that honors your values and strengths while also being able to provide a space that allows for growth and change. Please check out my website for more information: www.forestgrovecounseling.org

My passion has always been working with wounded hearts, helping those in broken and what seem like hopeless situations find light and meaning for their lives. I believe that trauma plays a major role in how we perceive the world and can greatly influence our choices and relationships. I have a passion for working with couples and believe that every marriage can be strengthened and thrive. I take a grace-filled, non-judgmental, collaborative approach to therapy and believe that every person, no matter their situation, can find healing and hope in the midst of their circumstances and I consider it a honor to walk alongside of you.

No matter what our age life has a way of throwing situations and challenges our way. These can be exciting and positive while at other times difficult to maneuver. As a therapist I offer a warm, compassionate, and accepting presence and deeply respect every individual who comes to me for help and support. I have been providing therapeutic services to children birth to 10 years, families, and adults for over 20 years. I've learned the importance of taking into consideration all aspects of each person's life as we explore the issues that brought you to seek help at this time.

Accepting New Patients! Welcome! I am a mental health therapist that focuses on treating mental health concerns specific to women.Women often face challenges that are unique to their gender, such as sexism, trauma, stereotyping, relationship concerns, motherhood, childbirth issues, and infertility struggles.I like to have a collaborative approach in therapy to help address these issues and help meet the goals of the women I work with. I have a particular interest in working with women who have struggled with infertility and new motherhood.

"YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND ANOTHER PERSON'S EXPERIENCE UNTIL YOU WALK A MILE IN THEIR SHOES." That's especially true regarding the thoughts and feelings that often surround deeply personal issues. My practice is informed by my own life experiences as well as a nuanced understanding of the complexity of human nature. Together we will build the degree of trust and rapport necessary for you to: identify maladaptive patterns, challenge negative beliefs, gain insight into past and present events and most importantly, use this information to create permanent positive change in your relationships and the way you think and feel about yourself.

Do you feel worried, unhappy or uncomfortable in your relationships or just by yourself? Maybe you find yourself saying, "How did I get here? I can’t do this anymore. Something needs to change or else…" You wonder if you're always going to feel this way. Daily tasks and interactions with people are monotonous, joyless or exhausting. You play the comparison game and other people's lives seem to be so much better than yours. No one would understand if you told them what you're going through. Life feels like a struggle. Anxiety, depression, anger, confusion or discomfort seem like the norm, not the exception.

Many of us show the world only a small fraction of who we really are. It's easy to feel the pressure to conform or hide certain aspects of ourselves. My goal for therapy is to provide an opportunity for you to be your complete self, without the fear of judgment or rejection. I hope that working together will not only alleviate the pain and discomfort you may be feeling right now, but also push you to grow in new ways.

Thank you for being here! You have taken the first steps toward a different way of living. Your action to move toward healing is already a sign that you are and yet we all need support from time to time. Chronic stress and/or traumatic experiences often debilitate our intuitive nature and create a disconnection from our embodied, true self. My hope is that we can collaboratively create within you an internal environment of security, possibility and ease.

Watching a person experience a “light-bulb” moment and realize that their pattern of thinking and/or behavior has been a struggle for them is why I'm most passionate about being a therapist. Clients often come into their first session feeling afraid, full of shame or guilt, and a general sense of being stuck. At times, when life becomes difficult or overwhelming, and we are afraid to reach out, this can feel like we are climbing an up hill battle. With a strong and trusting relationship, a genuinely safe space, and emotional support, recovery and living life to the fullest is not just possible, but also probable.

Centering - identifying that space in the middle, the balance between extremes, both inside and outside of ourselves. Regain balance with support. At Centered Therapy, we have a team of professional counselors ready to assist you with your specific needs. We treat adults with a variety of issues, ranging from trauma and anxiety to relationship issues and life transitions. Our therapists utilize a wide range of empirical and evidence-based practices and techniques to assist you on your path. They create a safe space as a foundation to walk alongside you and encourage your self-empowerment by teaching skills for growth and resilience.

The therapeutic process is a highly personal and fulfilling experience. Understanding our needs and what motivates us through our daily experiences helps us appreciate and live life on a higher level.

I am constantly humbled by the ways those I work with teach me and make me a better human, and I believe we all have within us the innate, resilient power to heal ourselves. You want your life to look different, but you may not know where to start or even what that means. I believe the therapeutic relationship thrives on genuine empathy and nonjudgment, which supports change. I enjoy working with people to improve their quality of life by healing trauma and challenging unhelpful patterns of behavior and thought, and have experience and interest in supporting individuals with trauma recovery and severe persistent mental illness.

I offer authentic, collaborative, compassionate and strengths-based telehealth counseling services for individuals and couples. Common challenges that I work with include identifying and reducing unhelpful patterns, difficultly with making positive changes happen, ongoing sadness, loss (e.g., job, partner), loneliness, excessive worry, adjusting to a new city, or simply trying to cope in an increasingly fast paced, anxiety producing and complex world. I am particularly well-known in the community for assisting young adults build and navigate independent living skills. My style is to listen and to engage with your goals in mind.

I provide psychotherapy and counseling to treat a range of emotional and behavioral issues for adults, couples and families. You may be seeking help with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, stress, trauma, PTSD, relationship and marital problems, and life transitions. I do my best to understand your presenting issues and concerns. By providing support, guidance and understanding I can help you to gain insight and wisdom, and work through difficult and painful feelings and conflicts. I encourage you to self-activate, understand yourself better, change unhealthy behavior and live with a greater sense of ease and well being.
