I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with dual degrees in Educational and Clinical Psychology. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, personality disorders, adjustment disorders, OCD, life transitions or crises, and family or parent–child relationship issues.
I provide therapy in both English and Russian, with deep understanding of the Russian-speaking culture and its unique family dynamics.
I offer a calm, open, and nonjudgmental space where clients can be themselves. I am comfortable talking about difficult experiences, including relationships, grief, anger, addiction, identity, and major life changes. I also value humor, curiosity, and the interests that make each person unique. My goal is to help clients feel understood while also supporting meaningful change.
Everyone needs support and encouragement, and though our friends and family play an integral role in our lives, they often struggle with finding the words to say when we face truly troubling experiences. As a trained counselor, my goal is to skillfully and empathetically help you navigate your challenges by working together to develop greater insight into your experience, foster an honest and compassionate stance towards your previous efforts, and develop more adaptive skills and perspectives to aid you moving forward.
As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 7 years of clinical experience, I work with adults from all walks of life who find mental health problems making life harder- whether these problems have been in nagging in the background for years, have come on as a sudden crisis, or are something you are unsure about needing help with. I provide mental health assessment and treatment, including medications when appropriate, to help get you feeling like yourself again and staying that way.
With over 12 years of experience, Sonia Edouard, PMHNP, is a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in holistic care for adults and children facing mental health challenges. She employs a compassionate, evidence-based approach, honoring cultural diversity and individual uniqueness to foster healing and personal growth.
I have a world class education, but there is more to me than that: There have been many iterations of "Alan" over the long years of my life. There is the drug addict that has walked the clean and sober path for 33 years. There is the truck driver and the tattoo artist, the husband (married 31 years), the father, the grandfather, the great grandfather, the foster father, the step-father. There is the Buddhist and the philosopher. I am reaching out to you. There is nothing you can tell me that will offend me.
And I can write a darned good introduction too! LOL!
I hope to meet you soon!

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Portland
Finding OCD therapists in Portland starts with looking for training that matches obsessive-compulsive disorder concerns. OCD can include intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination fears, rumination, and harm-related obsessions. Some therapists may use structured approaches to support people with OCD, and a qualified mental health professional can help determine what type of care may be appropriate. Not all therapists are trained in ERP, so look for this modality in bios when comparing therapists for obsessive thoughts, pure O concerns, or anxiety and OCD therapy near you.
Portland has many therapy options across neighborhoods like downtown, the Pearl District, Southeast Portland, and nearby areas, which can make narrowing the search more complex. Consider whether an in-person office works with your commute, transit route, or schedule, or whether virtual appointments give you more flexibility. For OCD care, it helps to look beyond a therapist who lists OCD as a specialty and review whether their bio mentions ERP training, exposure work, anxiety and OCD experience, or structured session plans. You can also compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before booking.
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 understand what you may pay before your first visit. Headway helps you find therapists who focus on OCD, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and are accepting new clients. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, read therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
