Therapist

Hi, I'm Collin — and I'm glad you found your way here.

We might be a great fit if you're a parent struggling to connect with, understand, or feel confident in parenting your child. Or perhaps you're part of a couple caught in a cycle of conflict, searching for healthier ways to communicate and reconnect. I also work with teens (and their parents) who are feeling stuck, disconnected, or simply in need of a safe space to process and build coping skills.

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 Oregon

Searching for therapists in Oregon starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want support with. Oregon has a wide range of therapists across urban and rural areas, and available options can vary by location. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with your concerns so you can choose someone whose training matches your needs.

Your search may look different in Portland, Eugene, Bend, or a smaller community. Some people prefer in-person sessions with a therapist nearby, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility or access to a broader set of Oregon therapists. Beyond specialty, it helps to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can also show how each person describes their approach, session style, and areas of focus before you book.

The cost of therapy in Oregon varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates before your first session. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your plan and location. From there, you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

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