Clients I work best with tend to be women grappling with some kind of trauma - abuse, sexual assault, divorce, family conflict, medical issues, growing up with emotionally immature parents, etc. I love empowering women to rediscover their voice, set boundaries, heal themselves, and start living the life they want to live, rather than the one they may feel forced into....

I enjoy working with adults from all life paths. Body-image, interpersonal trauma, attachment injury, and shame are my biggest areas of interest. My approach is person-centered and rooted in feminist theory, which means that I believe it is important to explore both the internal and external systems impacting your well-being. I utilize multiple therapy modalities in my work with clients, including ACT, CBT, and narrative-based techniques....
Hi, I’m Griffin (he/him). Thanks for stopping by. College can stir up a lot—new environments, big transitions, and sometimes old wounds that resurface when you least expect them. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or just trying to make sense of who you are and how you fit into the world. You’re not alone in that. I’m a licensed therapist offering trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming therapy for students who are carrying more than they let on. At Curious Mind Counseling, I work w...

I have in person availability in the Gorge, and provide online therapy for individuals and couples in Oregon and Washington. Therapy is an opportunity to engage with someone authentically and without judgement. Someone who cares about you though is not attached to the choices you make as a friend or family member might be. Someone with many years of experience and training in mental health, who is actively engaged in their own personal growth journey as well. I provide therapy that is rela...

I like to think of therapy as a journey of inner exploration and I am along as a guide. I believe that therapy is most effective when it is a combination of intellectual understanding and emotional experience. In that regard, it feels like your feelings are our road signs that we are in the right track to self-growth. I try to not have a specific agenda going into sessions, but rather to go where it is you feel like you need to go at that time. I believe that it is my role to create a safe space...
My professional philosophy is based on individual coaching. In other words I approach my therapy work with you without preconceptions or an agenda about what it means to “heal.” I place an emphasis on communication. I focus on bringing an individual's personal core values to the forefront of their lives. In this respect, I see myself as a your personal life facilitator. I will actively help you build your own resources by using life’s challenges as opportunities for learning, healing and becomin...

I see therapy as a collaborative process. I try to help clients find what isn’t working in their lives and help them “try on” different ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. In a sense, therapy can at times be a “trial and error” where I provide coping skills for my clients and check in to see if what I provided is useful to them. I believe that the client is the one who can ultimately tell me what does and does not work for them. Although I make it a point to use evidence-based practices, I ...

I aim to create an environment that is respectful, supportive, and collaborative. My approach to therapy is primarily based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). A core idea in ACT is that trying too hard to get rid of or control our emotions tends to backfire. Thus, instead of trying to get rid of unwanted thoughts, feelings, or emotions, I will help you learn to react differently to them so that you can keep your focus on living a meaningful and fulfilling life based on what’s important ...
