I specialize in high-demand professionals, overwhelmed mothers, men's emotional health & anger management, former college athletes, and relational wellness. You might be an attorney or executive facing intense burnout, a mother caught in a constant fight-or-flight cycle, a former athlete losing your identity after competitive sports, or a man struggling with anger and communication breakdowns in your relationship.
I graduated with a Master of Arts in Professional Mental Health Counseling from Lewis & Clark Graduate school of Education and Counseling (Portland, OR) in 2023. As a graduate student I interned at Allies in Change in Portland, OR, facilitating men’s groups and received specialized training in abuse intervention, mens issues, and anger management. My past experience makes me especially able to connect with and understand individuals in high demand careers. I am also skilled at teaching people how to communicate effectively in a variety of contexts both personal and professional.
Are you feeling stuck in painful patterns and looking for support that truly meets you where you are? I help adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles find steadier ground and reconnect with themselves and each other. My work is especially focused on helping people heal from hard experiences, build confidence, and create relationships that feel safe, honest, and fulfilling.
I specialize in working with individuals facing PTSD, complex trauma, substance abuse challenges, and more. I earned a Master of Social Work degree from Ohio State University College of Social Work in 2012.
I am passionate about brain and mental health. Over the years, I have built the belief that strong mental health is foundational to a successful, fulfilling life. However, I have also found there are no cookie-cutter solutions given the complexities of the human experience, thus inspiring a passion for a thorough, thoughtful, and individualized approach to brain and mental health. I earned a bachelor degree in nursing and in psychology, and a master's degree in psychiatric mental health.
Hi, I’m Rick. If you’re here, you’ve already taken one of the hardest steps—reaching out. Life can feel heavy, confusing, or stuck at times, and therapy is a place to slow down, breathe, and find your footing again.
My work focuses on helping people rebuild trust in themselves and in the life they want to live. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, addiction, relationship struggles, or a sense that “something needs to change,” I help you identify what matters most and move toward it with clarity and courage.
Clients often describe my style as grounded, straightforward, and compassionate. I believe in honest conversations, practical tools, and a good sense of humor when things get tough. Together, we’ll look at the patterns that keep you stuck, strengthen your ability to respond instead of react, and build a more authentic, values-based way of living.
If you’re ready to do real work in a supportive space—one that balances challenge and encouragement—I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
I am dedicated to help individuals lead fulfilling lives. Starting therapy is a brave step and together we will uncover elusive core issues and assist in transforming blocks, leaving you free to thrive in the life you choose.
My approach integrates acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and somatic practices. We will explore unhealthy thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. I bring a mind-body perspective to all my work and believe that therapy is a collaborative relationship.
What can clients expect from their first session with you?We will work to help you become your clear, loving, authentic, creative, and fearless self.
Hi, I’m Matt, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges and transitions. I work with individuals and couples managing depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, parenting struggles, relationship stress, addiction, and autism spectrum disorder (and more, see my list of specialties!)
Therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’re not sure where to start—but taking that first step says a lot about your strength. I commend you for making the choice to search for help. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. You don’t have to have everything figured out; we’ll take it one step at a time. I’ll meet you where you are and move at your pace, offering support and guidance as you work toward feeling more balanced, capable, and connected.
