I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment where it feels safe to lay all your cards out on the table without fear of being judged. Our lives can sometimes be brutal, or exceedingly beautiful, and everything in between. I'm here for all of it. I find that I work particularly well with people who are struggling with major life transitions, grief, and managing chronic conditions.

Are you facing a life transition, mental health challenge, or addiction struggle that feels overwhelming to navigate on your own?

You're not alone. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, I specialize in helping individuals find stability, clarity, and hope during some of life's most difficult moments. Whether you're coping with anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, major life changes, or the challenges of co-occurring mental health and addiction concerns, I provide a supportive space where healing and growth can begin.

For more than 12 years, I've worked across mental health, addiction treatment, crisis intervention, medical settings, and community-based care. I've supported individuals and families through recovery, psychiatric crises, cognitive decline, and significant life transitions. These experiences have taught me that resilience exists even in the hardest circumstances—and that meaningful change is possible.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and nonjudgmental. Very little surprises me, and nothing is too complex to discuss. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and create a path forward that feels achievable and authentic to you.

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.

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.

Therapist

Virtual • Happy Valley, OR


I know that you expected your life to be fulfilling and enjoyable, but instead you just feel tired, discouraged, anxious, and stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break. Maybe you avoid conflict in your marriage just to keep the peace, going through the motions in public while feeling disconnected in private. Or perhaps the weight of stress, a job you don’t enjoy, or a sense of being stuck has drained the energy and meaning from your life.

Deep down, you want to laugh again, feel close to your partner, and truly be teammates instead of adversaries. You don’t have to settle for this version of your life or your marriage—change is possible, and something better is within reach.

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Portland

Finding ADHD therapists in Portland starts with knowing what kind of support you want. ADHD therapy can focus on executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, organization, time management, and support for related concerns like anxiety or depression. Some people look for a therapist for ADHD, while others may also want medication management from a psychiatrist. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can also call for different experience, so it helps to look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your age group, goals, and needs.

Portland has many therapists across neighborhoods like Northwest Portland, Sellwood, Alberta, and the Pearl District, which can make it harder to narrow your options. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, transit route, or schedule, or whether virtual appointments give you more flexibility. It also helps to compare availability, therapeutic approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Provider bios can show how a therapist works with ADHD, whether they also support co-occurring concerns, and what a first session may look like.

ADHD therapy in Portland can be a significant expense 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 find therapists who may accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
