Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 1.5 mi away • Portland, OR


I work with people feeling unsatisfied with their current life and emotional situations, looking for a deeper sense of fulfillment, connection, and/or balance in their lives. I help find the connection between their thoughts and feelings. I explore how desires manifest themselves as: depression, anxiety, fears, disinterest, grief, low self-esteem, etc. I also explore how these impact their body. He offers spiritual guidance and perspectives to those that wish. All services must be approved by provider

I often use the attachment style as one ways of looking at your personal situation. This helps you as we explore your specific style of attachment, identifying barriers you wish to change or overcome. I am person centered and walk together with you on this journey of discovery and health. I focus on limbic regulation.

I work with a variety of cultural backgrounds, drawing from my own diverse heritage. I specialize in communication, complex emotional situations, history of loss, conceptualizing and creating plans to measure progress toward mental and emotional well-being. Your time is your life, your success, and your independence.

Matrescence, or the identity shift at the heart of becoming a mother, is a deep, confronting process. So much surfaces during this transition. Maybe you're feeling far away from yourself and unsure when the ground will steady itself again. Maybe old losses, traumas, and wounds are returning to you in new ways, or you're feeling lost in the forest of change. Maybe you feel far away from your partner and unsure how to find each other again. Maybe you're navigating pregnancy loss or fertility challenges, or struggling to decide if you want to become a parent at all.

I'm a psychodynamic therapist specializing in perinatal mental health, matrescence, and family of origin wounds, including trauma. I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (T2574) and hold a Master of Arts in Marriage, Couple, & Family Therapy from Lewis & Clark College. I have formal training in perinatal mental health, and basic training in perinatal EMDR.

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.

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.

Oluwatoyosi Dasilva

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Oregon


I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience in mental health care, supporting individuals across inpatient and outpatient settings. Through my work, I have cared for clients with a wide range of needs, including chronic and severe mental health conditions, and I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate symptoms while trying to maintain daily life.

My care philosophy is centered on partnership. Treatment is not about taking over your care, but about working with you to explore your symptoms, goals, and values. Together, we develop a treatment plan that feels respectful, personalized, and empowering. If you have concerns or hesitations about medication, we will discuss all available options openly and thoughtfully, moving at a pace that feels right for you.

I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, OCD, and other mood and thought-related conditions. During the initial session, we focus on understanding your concerns, reviewing your history, and identifying practical steps toward improvement. Care may include psychiatric evaluation, medication management when appropriate, brief psychotherapy, education, and ongoing support.

I believe mental health care should feel supportive, clear, and collaborative—not rushed or overwhelming.

You do not have to face these challenges alone. My role is to help you reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and regain balance so you can function at your best and move forward with confidence and stability.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Portland, OR

Searching for therapists in Portland starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Portland has many therapists across neighborhoods like the Pearl District, Hawthorne, Sellwood, and downtown, with experience supporting people living with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship concerns, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and background match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, including whether they use methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

In a major metro like Portland, having many choices can make it harder to narrow your search. Start with the practical details that shape whether a therapist is a usable fit: office location, appointment availability, virtual or in-person sessions, and whether they are accepting new patients. If you prefer in-person care, consider commute time, transit access, parking, and how the office fits into your routine. If your schedule changes often, virtual therapy may make it easier to meet with a therapist who fits your calendar. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist communicates, structures sessions, and describes what working together may look like.

Therapy in Portland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for Portland therapists who take insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and see real appointment availability in one place. You can compare therapists by specialty, format, schedule, and approach, then book directly when you find someone who matches your needs and accepts your plan.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
