Therapists in Madras, OR

Hello! I am Chad Ernest, Owner and Counselor of Sunny Sky Counseling, LLC. Every one could use some sunny sky in Portland now and again. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Oregon, who believes in the best in all of us and tries to help you find that in yourself. Whether that means I am working with you as an individual, your family, or as a couple, I am working to help you find the best outcomes. I believe in a client/family centered approach with collaboration in treatment between you and myself.

Hello! I am a licensed psychologist in Oregon and Washington State. I help parents, children, teenagers, and young adults. I have the necessary training and experience to provide parents with family therapy, adolescent treatment, and counseling to improve their positive parenting skills. My expertise lies in cognitive-behavioral treatment and mindfulness-based, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)-informed approaches. Together, we will work as a team to enhance your mental health, livelihood, and overall well-being.

As an experienced adolescent therapist, I am passionate about helping teens and young adults figure out who they are, who they want to be, and the barriers keeping them from realizing these goals. I have assisted hundreds of adolescents through academic challenges, anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, substance use, ADHD, traumatic experiences, social anxiety and divorce. We work together to develop healthy ways to manage our emotional life, identify strengths which can support self-confidence and motivation, and learn to trust we are worthy of the love and connection we want in our relationships.

***Currently available for in-person and Teletherapy appointments*** I am passionate about people leading empowered, connected, and purposeful lives. I provide counseling services to diverse clients as they learn, change, grow, and function in increasingly inspired, creative, healthy, and adaptive ways. I work collaboratively with clients in identifying needs, making changes, and practicing new skills in a safe and supportive setting. I am experienced in working with adults, couples, families, as well as adolescent clients, on issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, identity, and unwanted thoughts or emotions.

My name is Tim Baker and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). For over 30 years I have worked in the field. Throughout my life, I have been committed to serving humanity by supporting individuals struggling with addiction, trauma and mental health challenges. My professional journey has been defined by a steadfast commitment to serving all populations and advocating for those in need. Ages I treat are 18 years old to seniors. I provide individual, couples, and family therapy.

Hi, I am Joshua Beavers, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and I am excited to work alongside you! I completed a Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Central Oklahoma in 2015. I have worked with clients in person at various mental health clinics and in a virtual environment since 2015. My focus in sessions is to help clients learn to regulate their emotions, cope with stress, improve relationships, and build a foundation of skills that will help them with long-term success. I'm always excited to see them recognize the positive changes that can come from meeting with a counselor.

I’m excited to announce the opening of my new private practice. I have 20 years of experience as a psychologist working with adults, children, and families. I specialize in EMDR and my favorite part of my job is watching people let go of the pain from trauma and seeing the guilt and shame melt away. I have plenty of openings currently and look forward to hearing from you.

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 provide mental health and career counseling to individuals and couples dealing with life's challenges. Do you want to understand more about yourself, about your identity, about the way the patterns you've learned in the past might no longer be serving you? Do you deal with the challenges of depression, anxiety, guilt, past trauma, and grief or loss? Come on in and we can explore all of it in a supportive environment.

My path toward becoming a therapist started as a meditation facilitator, where I gained a deep appreciation of how mindfulness can bring calm and insight. My journey has helped me overcome difficult co-parenting, listening to children or teenagers, navigating divorce and loneliness, working through romantic relationships, and stepping outside of my own struggles to want to be of service to others. All of these life experiences have grounded me in working with a client who appreciates warmth, empathy, authenticity, and an East meets West approach.

I specialize with individuals and couples who desire to heal emotional problems associated with lack of trust, intimacy difficulties, ineffective communication, anger, silence and distance, sexual matters/addictions or infidelity. My services help people deal, heal, and grow through the inevitable seasons of change inherent to our lives. My approach is collaborative with the client, helping you reveal who you are, what you seek, supporting you in critical examination of the challenges you face. Together we create goals, develop strategies, and engage in ongoing interaction that moves you toward meaningful paths of change.

My practice focuses on people who want to enjoy greater peace and more satisfying relationships. I’m pleased to serve children, adolescents, and adults. The emphasis of my work includes treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, interpersonal difficulties, psycho-spiritual issues, ADHD, and child/adolescent behavior problems.

**CURRENTLY ACCEPTING OHP & PACIFIC SOURCE CLIENTS WITH TELEHEALTH AVAILABILITY.** As a person, I believe that you are valuable and capable. I believe that, no matter your circumstances or experiences we can work together to create and achieve amazing goals and explore an environment for healing alongside developing skills for wholeness, resiliency, and even purpose. Trust, respect, and authenticity are central in the counseling relationship. I will work in a holistic and honest manner, with action-oriented modalities to treat individuals, couples, and teens with a multitude of backgrounds or diagnoses.

Accepting New Clients - Telehealth/Virtual/In-person. I am a licensed social worker in Oregon with a background in community mental health, co-occurring problems, crisis response, sports performance, and the navigation of complex human emotions. As a licensed therapist in Oregon since 2008, my experiences assisting individuals, couples, and families from all walks of life from the childhood/teenage years through older adulthood.

I work with people who may be struggling to feel present in their life, or feel unable to enact their values for immediate and long term goals. Often, these struggles stem from things outside our control like past traumatic experiences and systematic oppression. In my collaborative approach to therapy, we will refocus on the experiences, decisions, and actions within your control to move your life in the direction you want it to go. My experiences includes working with symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, anger, addictions, and life transitions.

Each person has strengths and the potential for personal growth and a satisfying life. Therapy is a collaborative process in order to find the processes and answers to meet your needs. Having a safe and supportive atmosphere in which to explore issues is essential. . Therapy is an active process aimed at alleviating suffering and developing the inner peace and understanding that makes life worth living.

I am a proud professional counselor. In the last ten years of my career I have worked with university students and individuals with severe persistent mental illness. I was drawn to working in higher education because university students are often times ready to change and dive into working on growing as people and developing new patterns of behavior. I enjoy helping anyone willing to take a few moments to try an experiment with their thoughts, or try something new. It may be a bit anxiety provoking at times but it helps us all to grow and change. I aspire to be an expert in helping clients find relief from their issues.

Challenges we encounter in our lives are indicators of being "stuck" in our personal and relational growth. Psychotherapy can help us get "unstuck".... My approach is process and relationally oriented - "solutions" can come from changing our relationships with ourselves and others in our lives, and restructuring ourselves as we work with our life challenges. Depression, anxiety, trauma, men's issues, relationship strain, addictions -substances/alcohol, gambling, shopping, pornography, gaming. My experience can be helpful - psychotherapist, crisis worker, clinical supervisor, administrator, manager, policy analyst and educator.
