My clients are the “overthinkers” in the world...with big feelings that are hard to explain. They feel misunderstood, lonely and isolated while striving to please others at the expense of themselves. They’re exhausted, overworked, and over-stressed, feeling like they’re never enough. They have a vision for life, but aren’t sure how to bring it together, especially after a life-changing event. They're also eager for change.
Does this sound like you? If so, I warmly welcome you to my practice.
I’m John, an LGBTQ+ identified (he/they) psychotherapist practicing through a psychodynamic, relational and attachment-based lens. I've extensive training in trauma work, including EMDR.
I've spent 14 years working with people who are dealing with things that don't have easy answers — addiction, trauma that won't stay in the past, chronic illness, grief, and the invisible weight of caregiving for someone else. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based on the Oregon coast, and I work with adults across Oregon via telehealth. I'm direct, warm, and a little bit funny — therapy doesn't have to feel like a performance. I'll tell you what I actually think, ask you questions that get somewhere, and we'll adjust the approach based on what's actually helping you. I treat anxiety, OCD, depression, PTSD, substance use, and a range of life transitions — including the ones that hit when you're already tired.
My name is Dr. Terrance Jackson, and I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am so glad you're considering working with me to explore your mental health and well-being
I specialize in anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, CBT therapy, and trauma-informed care. I’m committed to creating a non-judgmental, supportive, and safe space to work together to help you overcome challenges and achieve your personal goals.
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.
At Prosody Mental Health, my goal is to support individuals to build skills to prosper in their neurodivergent identity. As someone who received my autism diagnosis later in life, I spent a good portion of my life believing that there was something intrinsically wrong with me. In learning about my own neurodivergence, I've learned to love the way my brain works and have built skills to unmask so I can be my authentic self.
I believe that your neurodivergence is not the problem, rather having to learn how to adapt to a world that was not built for you has added undue stress and caused you to create maladaptive coping mechanisms to survive.
I offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood and respected. My approach is down to earth, compassionate, and focused on helping you feel safer, calmer and more confident in your life. Together, we'll work at your pace to explore what's getting in the way and build practical tools that truly help. You don't have to do this alone.
Hi there, I'm Jena, and I'm here to help! I've been a therapist for over 20 years, primarily specializing in crisis intervention. At this point in my career, I'm ready to collaborate with my clients and help them grow to their greatest potential. I understand how hard life can be and I'm ready to walk beside you in your journey.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience helping children, families and adults navigate life's challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution-focused, and I tailor therapy to each client's unique strengths and goals. I also have experience supporting individuals coping with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns and complex medical challenges, helping them build practical skills and create meaningful, lasting change. I especially enjoy working with adults, including women who are pregnant, postpartum or adjusting to motherhood.
