Welcome! Being human can be quite challenging at times. Seeking help takes courage, so congratulations on taking that step! As a licensed clinical social worker I find it a privilege to serve clients and to be trusted in deeply moving and meaningful conversations and provide compassionate support as well as challenge when called for. I believe in providing people with skills that they can utilize across their lifetime. .

I obtained my license in 2006 but had been providing qualified mental health support through non-profit agencies since 1992. I particularly enjoy working with people on relational issues, dynamics, and communications - skills all of us need and few of us were supported in obtaining.,

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 a Therapist in Portland

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.
