Making the decision to start therapy is a profound investment of your time, energy, and vulnerability. If you are looking for a blank-slate clinician who simply nods and listens, we might not be the best fit. I offer a highly engaged, malleable, and unflinching partnership.

My approach is rooted in the belief that while the work of untangling our lives is deeply structural, the room itself doesn't always have to feel heavy. I bring a grounded warmth to my practice—which means knowing how to sit quietly in the gravity of a difficult truth, but also knowing when to break the tension, exhale, and find the light in the sheer complexity of being human. I won’t just sit in silence while you do all the heavy lifting; I am an active collaborator who adapts to exactly where you are.

Daren Ford

Daren Ford

Therapist

Virtual • Oregon


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Portland State University. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use, and I bring experience from interdisciplinary behavioral health settings where care often intersects with complex life circumstances.

My approach is collaborative, direct, and rooted in the understanding that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Mental health is deeply shaped by culture, community, history, and systems of power. Part of my work is intentionally engaging in a decolonizing approach to therapy—honoring lived experience, questioning one-size-fits-all models of care, and creating space for clients to define healing on their own terms.

I integrate frameworks such as American Society of Addiction Medicine and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration as supportive tools—not rigid rules—while drawing from motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and relational work that centers respect, autonomy, and real connection.

I offer a focused practice in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), with careful attention to preparation, safety, and integration. This work is not just about the experience itself, but about making meaning of it in ways that align with your values, identity, and community.

If your child or teen is struggling with anxiety, big emotions, identity, or trauma, and you're trying to figure out who the right person to trust is, that instinct to be careful matters. I'm Sheridan, and I've spent 15 years working alongside young people and their families, mostly in school settings, where I learned to meet kids exactly where they are. I work with children, tweens, and teens. A few things your family should know about me: I'm an artist (painting, pottery, printmaking), I have a big snuggly dog, and I genuinely love to laugh. Families often describe me as warm and calm, with a real ability to attune. I also offer affirming, experienced support for LGBTQIA+ young people and teens exploring gender identity.

In today’s world, many of us are carrying more than just personal stress. Climate concerns, the pandemic, economic instability, political division, and rapid cultural change have created a sense of collective trauma that deeply impacts our mental health. In my work, I recognize that individual struggles don’t exist in isolation—they are shaped by the larger systems and environments we live in.

My goal has always been to support people navigating trauma, personality disorders, depression, and anxiety by exploring the deeper layers of the psyche. Together, we work to build self-awareness, understand unconscious patterns, and develop practical tools that support meaningful and lasting change. I work with a diverse range of clients, from adolescents to older adults (ages 13–65+).

My therapeutic style is eclectic, integrative, and holistic. I draw from a variety of approaches to meet each client where they are, while also acknowledging how societal structures can influence mental health. Areas of particular interest in my work include complex trauma, the psychological impacts of modern economic systems, eco-anxiety, non-dogmatic spirituality, and emerging perspectives in psychedelic-assisted therapy.

Above all, I believe healing happens in a space of safety and authenticity. I strive to create a judgment-free, inclusive environment where clients are met with unconditional positive regard, empathy, validation, and genuine care.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, searching for deeper understanding, or simply looking for support, you are welcome to reach out.

I'm so glad you're here.

Women wear many hats: we are partners, mothers, daughters, friends, confidantes, professionals, and more. The expectations we place on ourselves while navigating these unique roles can lead to overwhelm, exhaustion, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and a loss of sense of self. I help clients find balance among their different parts while discovering new ways of advocating for themselves and creating a life in which they are no longer just surviving, but thriving.

Happy patient looking away

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.
