I specialize in trauma therapy for adults, with extensive experience supporting survivors of sexual violence and other traumatic experiences. If you’ve been through something overwhelming, it can feel like a fog has settled over you, affecting every part of your life. You might find yourself overthinking, being on edge, shutting down, or feeling numb, even when you want to feel present and connected. Many people I work with feel stuck in this space and are unsure how to move forward. Together, we’ll work to understand and process your emotions, thoughts, and past experiences so they no longer hold the same power over you.

CALL ME FOR A GOOD TIME, if a good time is talking about life's may challenges!

Everyone has a story, I would love the opportunity to hear yours! Most of us need help along life’s journey for a little extra support or to simply feel happier. As a therapist I derive satisfaction from helping people sort out the things that are going through thier mind, whether it be from life stress, jobs issues, relationship challenges, the wisdom and challenges of aging, addiction or adjusting to life after incarceration.

I’m Danyelle, a Social Worker with over a decade of experience helping my clients navigate life's challenges. If you feel stressed out, depressed, are experiencing anxiety or need help with solutions to problems, let’s talk about it, let me be the bridge over troubled water!

I work with clients across the lifespan, from young adults to older adults, and I'm deeply committed to creating a therapeutic space that honors your unique identity, values, and lived experience.

My approach is down to earth, relatable, open minded and supportive. I bring particular expertise in depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, and self-esteem work.

I also specialize in helping clients navigate life transitions, communication struggles, isolation, self esteem and social anxiety, I'm experienced in supporting clients through a wide range of concerns—including mood disorders, trauma, attachment issues, relationship challenges, workplace stress, financial concerns, and health-related struggles. I also have specialized knowledge in areas such as women's and men's health, pregnancy, postpartum experiences, adoption and foster care and multicultural concerns.

Daren Ford

Daren Ford

Therapist

Virtual • Oregon


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Portland State University. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use, and I bring experience from interdisciplinary behavioral health settings where care often intersects with complex life circumstances.

My approach is collaborative, direct, and rooted in the understanding that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Mental health is deeply shaped by culture, community, history, and systems of power. Part of my work is intentionally engaging in a decolonizing approach to therapy—honoring lived experience, questioning one-size-fits-all models of care, and creating space for clients to define healing on their own terms.

I integrate frameworks such as American Society of Addiction Medicine and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration as supportive tools—not rigid rules—while drawing from motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and relational work that centers respect, autonomy, and real connection.

I offer a focused practice in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), with careful attention to preparation, safety, and integration. This work is not just about the experience itself, but about making meaning of it in ways that align with your values, identity, and community.

Therapist

I'm Anna Bellard, LCSW, a trauma therapist with nearly a decade of experience supporting adults through anxiety, PSTD, and the lasting impact of trauma. I specialize in EMDR therapy and somatic-based approaches that help clients heal not just mentally, but through the nervous system as a whole.

I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at the University of Vermont and completed my Master of Social Work at University of Denver in 2020. My clinical background includes inpatient psychiatric care, adult partial hospitalization (PHP), and dual-diagnosis treatment, where I worked with complex trauma, mood disorders, and substance use.

Overtime, my work led me to focus on individual therapy for adults seeking deeper healing, emotional regulation, and reconnection with themselves. My approach is warm, collaborative, and direct.
