Sexual Abuse Therapists in Eugene, OR

My clients are mostly adults in individual and couples therapy who are navigating the stressors of relationships, adulthood, life transitions, communication, dating, anxiety, and attachment. You may be someone who is struggling to live in the uncertainty that life often brings, or maybe you are navigating boundaries in your relationships - all things that bring about anxiety and fear for many people. Despite what it may be, I am here to support you and talk through it with you. I can offer support in areas of anxiety, depression, grief, family/relationship/dating challenges, identity formation, sexuality, and personal growth.

There’s no denying the stressors that make being a functioning human in this shitshow feel unbearable at times. My goal is to collaborate with you to find the joy, connections, and moments of beauty that bring your life meaning. I want to hear about the parts you’re ashamed of, the times you weren’t your best self (we’re ALL messy), and help you uncover and disrupt thoughts, behaviors, & relationship patterns that are no longer serving you. Whether you’re a queer teen carving out space in your conventional family/ town or an empty nester trying to figure out what YOU like and who YOU are after 25 years, you deserve to be heard.

Hello I am Ashley it is nice to meet you. I am currently taking new clients in OR and WA. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor in the State of Oregon, as well as a License Mental Health Counselor in the State of Washington. I have provided treatment to individuals suffering from eating disorders, substance use disorders, severe and persistent mental illness, marital and relational issues, grief and loss, as well as all forms of anxiety disorders, mood disorders and a vast range of substance, sex and gambling disorders.

Whether you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or any other concerns, you deserve a therapist who will be open and supportive yet willing to challenge you gently when needed.  With an approach that combines connection and boundaries, we can work together to help you find the agency you need to move through life with pleasure. I specialize in working with BIPOC, LGTBQIA, Polyamory/Non-Monogamous, and Kink/BDSM communities to provide comprehensive, evidence based, trauma informed, sex positive therapy, that meets the needs of sexual marginalized populations.

I bring the ability to deeply hear the narratives clients are living and create a therapeutic environment where healing and transformation become possible. I focus on treating clients who have lived through complex childhood trauma and its effects, and those living with the effects of marginalization, adoptive and/or foster narratives, and perfectionism. I also enjoy helping with relationships, body image, OCD, self-discovery, identity development, grief/loss, and parenting. My integrative approach meets clients where they are and invites a process that includes the mind, heart, and body in growing self-awareness and wellness.

Our therapists are highly specialized, compassionate, and dedicated to helping you create more pleasure and connection in your life. We believe that everyone deserves access to high-quality, specialized therapeutic care. The Center stands with and supports LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, Latinx, AAPI, Immigrant and Native communities. We are gender and trans-affirming, anti-racist, and open to supporting folks in monogamous and non-mongamous relationships of any kind. We pride ourselves on providing sex positive therapy to all individuals in our community.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, or a nagging feeling that something just isn’t okay? Have the difficult experiences of your past started to come back to the surface? Are you having panic attacks, feeling jumpy, or avoiding things that remind you of these experiences? Maybe this is all having an impact on your relationships and your ability to go about your daily life. You are not alone. I help survivors of childhood and interpersonal trauma look at how their experiences have shaped them and explore how to take back their lives from the memories that have burdened them for so long.

I believe interpersonal connection is the foundation of mental health and wellness. In my practice, I strive to create a safe, empowering environment where your truths can be freely shared and deeply felt. If there's a well of sadness you've struggled to overcome, or if enduring trauma or anxiety keeps you from finding peace, you don't have to suffer alone. Despite superficial differences, I find people are mostly equal in their wish for contentment and fulfillment. Let us walk together on this journey to help you find yours.

Hi, I am glad you are here. I’m Mike Schwarting, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon. I am accepting new clients in Oregon! I believe that therapy is a process of making connections between people. In a chaotic and unsettled world, having a real connection with a knowledgeable, kind, and above all, supportive therapist can mean the difference between despair and living the life you deserve. I work primarily with adults, and have extensive experience with men’s issues, the LGBTQIA+ community, and relationship therapy. I practice according to WPATH and APA standards of care.

I welcome you to reach out.

Counseling is a challenging avenue to pursue. Usually at moments of confusion, loss, even desperation. Having been in the field for over 20 years, I can admit I don't have 1 answer. However, having that amount of professional (and considerable personal) experience, I've accumulated quite a tool box. It may not guide you to immediate enlightenment, but it will help with the journey. I hope to hear from you.

Come as you are to this space and be accepted. While the goals of therapy for each individual vary, a common goal is to be able to experience a range of emotions and have the tools and skills to cope with them. I am here to support you in this journey, regardless of what place you are starting from. I work with two main groups of people. The first being children aged 1-10 and their families, usually on the topics of neurodivergence (specifically ADHD and OCD), attachment and relationship, foster care and adoption. The second group being adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, chronic health challenges, and parenting.

You want someone who is compassionate and responsive, who is open and respectful, and who isn’t afraid to go with you into difficult places. That's my goal: to be on your side, to be with you, and to be real—so you have the support needed to move through and to flourish. My practice is holistic & relational from my background in depth, gestalt & somatic therapy. I specialize in trauma, grief, relationships, anxiety and non-monogamy. I also focus on—and especially enjoy—working with queer folk and other healers.

I offer empowered and embodied therapy for folks seeking to transform challenges and distress into a catalyst for deep healing. My approach is warm, real, relatable, and comes with a sense of humor. I specialize in work with complex trauma, anxiety, grief, codependency, radical self-love, and self-acceptance. I am EMDR trained. Coming from a blended family that is White, Black, Latinx, and Jewish, I am committed to questioning identity dynamics, power, privilege, and positionality. I am dedicated to social justice and will support you in using your personal healing to work towards collective liberation and social change.

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, I believe clients hold answers within yet often feel they have lost touch with themselves. I strive to provide a safe and validating space for clients allowing them to discover intuitive answers to incorporate into a purposeful and fulfilling life. Gestalt therapy is one of my approaches which emphasizes existing wholly in the here and now. Throughout this process you can access and integrate fragmented traits generating deeper connection with yourself and others.

*CURRENTLY WELCOMING NEW CLIENTS* Are you experiencing distress, anxiety, depression, shame, disconnection, loss, reactivity?

Perhaps you’re trapped in a cycle of familiar frustration? You're not present. It feels like you're on autopilot. You either find yourself replaying the past on repeat like a broken record or dreading a future that feels like a dumpster fire of "What if?" scenarios just waiting to happen. Yearning for relief, it’s easy to get lost in work, weed gummies, or endless doom scrolling, using these as distractions from the deeper issues. Maybe you’re skeptical about therapy or have lost hope that things can actually change. I get it. But the fact that you’re here shows there’s still a part of you that believes things can shift.
