Stress Therapists in 97401

Accepting new clients. As humans we have vitality that moves through us in the direction of purpose, creativity, expansion, connection, and love. However, when we have unresolved trauma and stress in our bodies, we can become disconnected from ourselves, people, and place, reenacting unhelpful patterns in ways that keep us stuck, small, and unfulfilled. Mental well-being is not just a matter of the mind; it encompasses the nervous system, relationships, sense of belonging, environmental factors, biology, belief systems, daily habits, and culture. I believe all people have the wisdom within to heal, recover, and transform.

Fjord Counseling was born out of the desire to create a practice that encourages healing, inspires reflection and provides a safe place for doing the hard work of therapy. We are here to walk with you together on your journey of personal growth, not as your guide, but as fellow travelers pursuing the same path. We specialize in the areas of grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, addiction, young adult issues, life transitions, cancer and relationships. We also provide LCSW clinical supervision for CSWA's pursuing licensure as well as professional behavioral health consulting services.

I am a licensed psychologist who utilizes mindfulness-based therapies in my approach to treatment. I have worked with many patients experiencing varied mental health concerns, including anxiety, OCD, depression, grief, eating disorders, sleep disorders and acute stress. Together, we will work to identify what you value in life and explore ways for you to engage in a way that is aligned with your valued outcome. Typically, what lands people in my office is a gap between how they are living their lives and how they want to be living their lives. Our work together would focus on closing this gap.

I believe in the importance of using my skills and voice to help empower my clients. I look forward to a long career in the mental health field where my community members, especially people of color, veterans, women, and individuals needing a cheerleader and advocate in their corner, can receive the care that they deserve. I want to understand the whole person and hope that everyone will soon be able to see themselves for who they are and not by what society or their diagnosis tells them. Seeking mental health treatment is a big step and I want to celebrate each person’s journey.

I am currently accepting new clients! I work with teens, adults, and couples. I believe that counseling can provide a safe place to explore ourselves and our world in new and positive ways. The struggles of life can feel overwhelming at times, and having someone to journey through these challenges with allows for hope and growth, ultimately building a roadmap toward a more content and fulfilling life. It is an honor to be a part of each client's personal journey of restoration and freedom.

Life can be stressful and overwhelming and it is my privilege to be a a judgement-free support and guide. I help young people sort through a variety of complex emotions in a safe and welcoming space with the goal of identifying the right tools to experience success.

I have been an LMFT since 1993. During that time I've had both education and experience with many of the issues we encounter as we pass through our lives. Couples, individuals and teens are the majority of my practice. We work on relationship problems, divorce and co-parenting, anxiety and depression and parent-child problems. I also have training and experience working with clients with sexual concerns and Active Duty Military, families and Veterans. I am currently accepting telephonic and video clients in Oregon. Telehealth has been extensively researched and found to have similar positive results as face-to-face.

I am here to support individuals who have experienced significant trauma and stress. Together, we can navigate the profound changes that impact your world. I understand that in response to trauma, painful coping behaviors can arise as a means of self-preservation or self-protection. I am here to help you navigate through experiences of depression, anxiety, anger, isolation, low self-esteem, and self-sabotage, which may be burdening your relationships, career, home life, and sense of autonomy. My goal is to empower you to move beyond survival and discover your path towards thriving and reclaiming your life.

You have ADHD, and it's getting in the way of your life. You've tried different ways to cope with all your symptoms, but you're still being held captive by issues with stress, overwhelm, self-sabotage, and self-confidence. My clients seek the tools to help manage their ADHD and resolve what's keeping them from thriving personally, professionally, and in their relationships. You're grappling with staying on task and dealing with procrastination at school or work. You've found yourself struggling in your relationships. You're overwhelmed by life and looking for more peace, self-acceptance, connection, and joy.

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.

I most enjoy working with you, someone motivated to improve. I’ll help you cope effectively with depression, anxiety, bipolar, and trauma disorders and I have for 20 years. You’re individual, couple, family, or groups. Adolescents and adults are preferred. I will help you with stress, horrifying traumas, deaths, diagnoses. Struggling with perinatal mood difficulties, eating disorders? I can help. I’ll teach you skills that enable and empower you to feel happy, stable, and independent again. I’m published on Amazon as Erica L Hernandez. My book is apocalyptic: Evasion, which addresses how to cope with grief.

I understand that people can sometimes struggle or feel anxious about some area in their life. Most people want to feel meaning in their life, but when stress, sadness, or anxiety gets in the way it can feel horrible. Not knowing how or what to change can feel overwhelming.

We can all benefit from support in managing our mental health in the context of life's challenges. I work collaboratively to identify the changes you want to make, and I view my role as a supportive guide in your process. I enjoy working with clients who are looking for support to navigate stress, identify and process emotions, manage anxiety, improve mood regulation, focus and attention (including ADHD and neurodivergence), relationships and communication, and who overall want to be more connected to the present moment and a life that is meaningful to you.

Being vulnerable and sharing your story can be difficult whether we are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, or trauma. My goal is to connect with you and create a safe, nonjudgmental space where I am happy to walk alongside you on your journey. I recognize that you are the expert in your own life, and I believe in the inherent ability of each individual to create hope, change, and healing for themselves. I partner with the people I work with to support and empower them to identify meaningful goals, broaden and build strengths, learn new tools, and process and heal difficult experiences.

My clients seek me out for many different reasons, including (but not limited to) mood, anxiety, and stress disorders; adjustment difficulties; and relationship and family-of-origin concerns. Sometimes, they just know they're stuck or lost and need help. I use evidence-based approaches (i.e., what we know to be effective with certain concerns) to help clients gain awareness of the interactions between their thoughts, feelings, and behavior; recognize the influences that have shaped these patterns; and develop the knowledge and skills to respond, rather than react, to them.

I specialize in working with people experiencing difficult life transitions. These may be adjusting to a disability, the death of a loved one, changes in family structure or employment among other things. I consider difficult life transitions to include times when we experience increased stress requiring changing coping skills. I create a safe and affirming environment for you to begin recognizing that you are not on this journey alone. By seeking counseling you have the opportunity to learn new information and patterns that no longer serve to move you in the direction you want to go.

My practice is currently full. I work with adults struggling with trauma-related symptoms, depression, anxiety, social anxiety, grief, life transitions and those interested in making healthy lifestyle changes. I believe change is possible when people feel safe to explore their values, hopes, dreams, commitments, and purpose, as well as their disappointments and hurts. I aim to help clients "slow down," encouraging reflection and insight, and the development of healthy coping strategies to create sustainable change. My stance is curious and flexible reflecting my belief that my clients are the experts on their lives.
