Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Hillsboro, OR

I work with adults who are navigating trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, self esteem issues, or, not uncommonly, a combination of the listed. My passion is to empower individuals to reconnect with their authentic selves by walking folks through their past wounds and current limitations that keep us from being grounded. I also work within other ranges such as inner child work, attachment styles, childhood trauma, generational trauma, spirituality, and the LGBTQIA community+. I am also passionate about working with fellow therapists through Clinical Supervision or counseling as I focus on imposter syndrome and integration of self.

I speak Haitian Creole!

I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage! I am here to support you in that process.

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.

I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience working with adults navigating some of life's hardest seasons — infertility, adoption, depression, anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of grief that doesn't have a clear name yet. I'm faith-integrated in my approach, which means I honor the role spirituality plays in your life without ever making it a requirement. My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.

I believe that the healing space happens when someone feels safe, seen, and respected. My approach is warm, direct, and grounded, while also being able to challenge and empower my clients. I bring both clinical and real-world understanding into sessions. So, whether you are feeling stuck, over-whelmed, or just ready for a change, we will move at a pace that not only honors you, but provides you with the tools you will need to continue on your personal healing journey.

I specialize in working with individuals across all mental health conditions, with a particular focus on anxiety, depression, anger and irritability, and feelings of frustration or helplessness. My greatest strengths are empathy, strong clinical judgment, and effective communication — qualities that allow me to build genuine therapeutic relationships and develop collaborative treatment plans tailored to each person's unique needs. I am deeply passionate about mental health because I believe every individual deserves the opportunity to improve their quality of life, build resilience, and experience meaningful recovery. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and getting out to explore and shop — life's simple pleasures that remind me of the importance of balance and joy.
