Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Oregon

When facing anxiety and stress, you can often feel like it's a solitary journey, but it doesn't have to be. In my practice, I create a nurturing environment where your concerns are acknowledged and validated. We'll explore the roots of your anxiety and stress, all within a supportive and empathetic space. Our goal is to establish tools to help you manage anxiety and stress, enabling you to navigate life's challenges with grit and a keen sense of self.

People can live a life that is joyful, peaceful, loving, compassionate, mindful and connected with the love we truly are. As life takes it course, we can lose sight of who we are at our core Essence. Patterns and habits get established that can interfere with living life to its fullest and in alignment with core values and highest priority intentions. Cognitive thoughts form belief systems and ways of acting and behaving in the world that are not always in alignment with our core Essence. Emotions can get stored in the physical body, which the cognitive mind may not always be able to fully access without support and guidance.

Do you find yourself getting stuck at certain points in your life, or find yourself avoiding and/ or fearing your own emotions? Do you become overwhelmed with thoughts and/ or stress and find that you are unable to relax and calm your mind and body? Understanding and building skills for these types of struggles can be challenging without the right support. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can learn, explore, build skills, and find success. I customize the counseling experience to each individual client because we are all unique and learn and grow in different ways.

Since no two people are the same, no treatment should look the same. I believe in individualizing the counseling experience to the client and their unique needs. Thus, I practice with a trans-theoretical model or across theories. I take into account your readiness for change, your strengths, and your developmental level to create a working relationship that allows for growth and resilience building. Some approaches I have utilized in the past include Wellness Based Counseling, EcoWellness/ EcoTherapy, Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist interested in helping people alleviate their suffering, improve their relationships, and understand themselves better. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationships problems. I believe all people have positive potential that can sometimes be stifled and find it rewarding to help others work through their obstacles. I offer individual therapy and couples counseling and welcome clients of all ethnicities, genders, young adult through the elderly.

Sexual addiction (SA) is a hidden addiction. It is a global problem, under-reported, and largely untreated. SA harms relationships, creates relational trauma for partners, and damages trust and intimacy in relationships. Addicts often engage in secrecy and feel shame and guilt about their behavior. Partners often feel betrayed and traumatized by the addicts behavior. Intimacy issues are often an underlying concern for both individuals and for couples. Like other addictions, SA can get progressively worse over the years. If untreated, SA can lead to relationship loss, divorce, job loss. financial problems, and legal problems.

It is a great honor to travel alongside a person who has decided to embark upon a path of discovery, whether wanting to understand issues regarding relationships, what drives reactions, achieving growth and healing, coping with grief & loss, or the aging process. I believe that we are all capable of transforming old beliefs into new freedoms, and of moving beyond the patterns we have developed in the past as a response to our surroundings. If we choose to work together, I am committed to working collaboratively with you to help you achieve your goals.

Hi! In my life I have learned the value of a good counselor, someone who is there to listen, provide perspective, and challenge assumptions. A person that is there to help you tell your story, find meaning, and identify strengths. Counseling is not always an easy thing for people to engage in and can seem intimidating and scary at times. It may lead you to explore things that are painful and frightening, and may bring up emotions that many of us are hesitant to explore. As I work with people I strive to make a space where these feelings, experiences, and thoughts can be freely expressed and explored in a way that promotes healing.

I believe that everyone can reach an optimum state of health. I employ an eclectic approach with a strong reliance on cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused aspects. I strive to develop mutual trust & understanding with patients by meeting patients where they are, collaborating towards goals, & supporting patients throughout their growth process. I find it helpful to also incorporate my activities of interest into my work. I enjoy crafts, dancing, exploring nature, and finding support in the people around me.

I primarily work with young adults on an individual basis and have experience with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, severe and persistent mental illness, self-esteem, interpersonal issues, trauma, identity issues, spiritual and existential concerns, life transition, and other emotional wellness concerns. I am currently only providing services via telehealth / secure online video chat. For Oregon clients, at this time I am only accepting Moda insurance or private pay.

Hello, I am a registered associate counselor with my MA in clinical mental health counseling and I am working toward becoming a licensed professional counselor in the state of Oregon. I have experience working with adults dealing with a variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, emotion regulation, social concerns, relationship issues, life transitions, hearing or seeing things that aren’t there, trauma, and paranoia. I also enjoy collaborating with clients to find balance in areas of their lives and working toward building a life that the client feels is meaningful and worth living.

Trauma comes in many shapes and forms. A deeply distressing and disturbing experience in your life can have many negative effects such as feeling numb or like you’re just “going through the motions,” deep depression and sadness, or feeling “broken.” But you are not alone in feeling this way. I understand the power of trauma and how it can destroy you, overtaking your mind and your body. It’s a wound that changes a person. Especially if you don’t let it out. It finds unhealthy ways. The trauma can overpower you and take control. But you can become "unbroken."

As a practical, interactive, solution-focused psychologist, my treatment approach is to provide support and feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. With over 10 years of clinical experience, I help clients find solutions to a wide range of life challenges and psychological issues. My approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance strategies to identify problem areas and develop opportunities for growth and understanding. I help clients explore the interactions among thoughts, feelings, and behavior in order to identify barriers to achieving life goals.

Understanding your own journey is one of the bravest things you will ever do for yourself. Sometimes our story doesn’t follow the plan we had dreamed of, or it takes some turns for the worst, leaving us feeling lost, hopeless, and/or lonely. When difficult transitions occur, it makes understanding our story even more difficult. When you enter this season of trying to make sense of the twists and turns, having a skilled companion by your side to listen, see you, affirm you, and explore difficult parts of your story can be healing. I am here to help you discover that inner strength, and provide clarity, and support.

I provide a supportive and compassionate environment to give my clients space to process past trauma, current stress, and anxiety about the future. My practice integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Polyvagal Theory, mindfulness training, and Eye Movement Reprocessing and Desensitization (EMDR). Using these frameworks we will examine how past experiences impact your current functioning. We will identify traumatic experiences, dysfunctional thoughts and destructive behavior patterns. Then use EMDR and talk therapy to shift the beliefs that reinforce these habits to relieve psychological and emotional suffering.
