I love supporting individuals & partners who are in a phase of growth! If you are: seeking to transform your relationship and communication skills; creating space to reclaim your connection with pleasure and joy; working on freeing yourself from patterns that no longer serve you; experiencing a radical shift in your identity, beliefs, or relationships. I would be honored to work with you! I am queer-friendly, neurodivergence-informed, sex-positive, kink-competent, and poly-affirming.

Chera Sheets

I work best with folks who may be struggling with relationships or want to change their thought patterns to improve self worth. If your stuck at a crossroads in life, we can examine your options and find a path forward. I help individuals develop a greater understanding of themselves and others to improve their relationships. We all have experiences that may cause us to have negative beliefs about ourselves. We can work to let go of those beliefs and embrace and develop your strengths.

JESSICA KINGREY

As an EMDR trained and IFS informed clinician, my specialty is the treatment of PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety and dissociative disorders in adults and adolescents. I strive to create a calming, safe space and have a more gentle approach, though I will challenge you to do very hard work at a pace that feels safe for you. Compassion, curiosity, and mindfulness are some of my favorite tools.

Are you looking to process trauma? Gender? Figure out what flavor of neurodivergent you are and the best ways to cope? Maybe you are in a relationship with complex identity intersectionalities that needs support. I specialize in working with gender-diverse youth and adults, queer couples, those with insecure attachment, introverts, and neurodivergent folks. I support clients grappling with minority stress, facing unique challenges and societal pressures that exacerbate mental health struggles.

Has life thrown you for a bit of loop recently? Maybe that recent break up has left you reeling. Or this recent move has been hard. Grief can come in many forms, a big move, birth of a baby, an end of a friendship, or death of a loved one. Loss is some of life’s toughest stuff. Feeling alone in this world can be pretty scary. Lets work towards a way for you to find yourself again. I have lots of coping skills in my pocket to share with you.

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Marco Rudas-Garcia

I am fluent in Spanish and have a passion for working with diverse populations and learning from different cultures. I believe in collaborating with patients to develop a care plan that aligns with their needs, using evidence-based practice. Outside of work, I enjoy sports, exploring the outdoors, and going on road trips with my family.

Clients find me when worried their trauma will affect parenting. They come after violating or confusing births or while planning the impossibly 'perfect’ birth. Some arrive postpartum- feeling trapped, sad, anxious, & resentful (and then ashamed by their feelings). Folx show up feeling wildly reactive despite heroic efforts to chill, or when realizing that parenting pokes at every wound they didn’t even know they carried. Therapists come to shore up when worn down by life as a parent & healer.

Blake Locher

You may feel entrenched in old, ineffective patterns that are difficult to break. You may feel confused or directionless due to unexpected crisis. You may be adjusting to a change in your physical, mental, or social abilities. Or you may feel that something is wrong without even knowing what the problem is. I provide mental health counseling for individuals in the Portland area so they can navigate these kinds of transitions and answer their inner call for change.

Carl Jensen

the solution of the problem is always an individual one," wrote CG Jung. We can address whatever is causing you distress, including social or interpersonal behavior patterns that have not been working, or family of origin issues. I will help you to assimilate and integrate the problems, and/or otherwise painful emotions. Together we will help you move toward psychological wholeness and spiritual integrity.

Sophia Jarvis

Life is so much more colorful when you paint from your own palette. My clients seek meaning, understanding, fulfillment, and embodiment through the ways they shape, and are shaped by, their environment: LGBTQIA+, kink, consensual nonmonogamy, sex work, neurodivergence, and meaning/spirituality all welcome. I work best with relationships and individuals who are motivated to untangle their own lives, and want a side-kick to co-navigate the tricky path.

Sarah Sumner

I’m so glad you’re here- it takes courage to ask for help, and I’m honored to be considered. I believe that people already have exactly what they need to heal. I enjoy working with a range of clients and specialize in assisting individuals and couples who are neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and/or adult survivors of complex trauma and their partners navigate anxiety, depression, communication issues, and cultivate healthy sexuality. I am also kink/BDSM affirming and poly/ethical non-monogamy affirming.

Veronica Bangs

I work primarily with clients affected by trauma, anxiety and depression. Some of my “niche” populations have included the transition age group (I consider this to be 18-30 years old), creatives of all varieties, the neurodivergent community, and anyone interested in exploring their connection with their body through the lenses of Polyvagal Theory and Somatic Experiencing.

Through Therapy, Trauma-Informed Breathwork, & Coaching, I work collaboratively with clients who are struggling with navigating the ups, downs, and transitions in life. Some other areas may be: navigating relationships, family dynamics, divorce, or simply seeking personal growth. When you embody & cultivate a deeper connection to yourself, you are empowered to break through barriers & negative cycles, tap into your intuition & inner resources, uncover untapped resources, and overcome challenges.

Jennie Hagen

I love helping people look at old patterns of coping and interacting in the world, and seeing how those patterns influence their daily life. I work well with people who want to go under the surface of what's going on and look at what may be lurking underneath. This can understandably bring up some feelings of apprehension, and we will always go at a pace that feels right and safe for you. You're in the driver's seat, and I'm helping to navigate.

Alexa Adams

Have you have lost the spark in your relationship? Are struggling through conflict and strain? Are being impacted by childhood trauma and attachment concerns? Possibly you are hoping to strengthen an already strong relationship? We all bring our unique selves, our pasts, and family histories into each relationship. It can be challenging to find balance and harmony with so many different factors interacting with each other. Using a collaborative approach, I can help clear the pathway forward.

I have particular experience in working with: LGBTQIA folks People in Polyamorous or Consensually Non Monogamous relationships Survivors of sexual abuse Survivors of trauma New parents Couples and people in relationships People recovering from abusive relationships

Sarah Blaszczak

Between and within humans, multiple perspectives exist, and what is discovered depends on how observing happens. This understanding has led to my intense compassion for human suffering, and delight in the unique paths forged. ​ It is possible to ultimately drop attachments contributing to suffering, in order to experience the innately loving conscious beings we are. ​ Here the focus is less on "right and wrong" and more on the wise discernment of what ACTUALLY contributes to suffering.
