Therapists in Marion County, OR

Hi! I believe everyone is capable of healing, growth and positive change. I bring compassion, humor and authenticity to our counseling relationship. My work reflects my values and is strengths-focused, trauma-informed, anti-racist, and LGBTQIA-affirming. During our most difficult times, we develop coping strategies that serve us and keep us safe. I work with people to examine which strategies still benefit them and which they want to adjust or let go. People often enter therapy caught in shame or the belief they are somehow broken. We can work together to find skills that benefit you and build on strengths you already possess.

Hi there! I’m Michelle Ficalora, and I’m a mental health clinician intern here at Positive Inner Self, working towards becoming a LCSW. I’m currently a Clinical Social Work Associate. My pronouns are she/they, and I am trauma-informed and LGBTQIA+ allied. I specialize in working with clients of all ages, helping to address both the symptoms and root causes of your stressors in individual or group sessions. I’ll help guide you on the way to reaching your goals, using humor, play, and light physical engagement to keep things moving.

In my practice I often work with people who are experiencing feelings of anxiety and depression due to stress, relationship difficulties, important transitions in their lives, trauma, grief and loss. Individuals, couples and families who are experiencing overwhelming emotions can benefit from my supportive approach as they work on their concerns and develop goals. When verbal communication is not enough, I offer clients of all ages creative means to express themselves. My approach is collaborative with clients as they empower themselves within the therapeutic relationship and move towards making positive changes in their lives.

Finding the right therapist is important. I offer strength-based confidential counseling and support for people working on gender identity, anxiety, depression, and trauma. If you think you are ready, do contact me. You are very much worth it!

Welcome, my name is Dezire “D” Cavitta, and I look forward to meeting you. I believe cultural diversity enriches our understanding of human experiences, and I strive to create a culturally sensitive and inclusive therapeutic environment that empowers clients to achieve personal growth. I am part of the LGBTQIA+ community. I identify as non-binary using, they/them pronouns. I address concerns holistically which encompasses mental, physical, social, spiritual, and sexual health.

I know that you have walked through an entire lifetime of experience to get to this point. The path you have taken has now brought you to an impasse, and I promise you do not have to take these next steps on your journey alone. My name is Renee, and I am a body-based Licensed Professional Counselor in the Portland area. I would like to join you on this adventure you call your life. Together we can collaborate and discover new embodied ways of being, you can reconnect to the life force that flows through you, and I will be there as you uncover the clues to your present and future.

I believe the therapeutic process is about us journeying together on the path of wholeness and healing. It is in the context of a safe, consistent, secure therapeutic relationship whereby trauma can be processed and adaptively stored, where overwhelming emotions feel safe to be expressed, where that which happened to you becomes part of your story, and no longer the one that defines you. It is my belief that as you do this courageous work of healing, you are then able to experience internal power and strength that once felt unavailable to you. I believe that every human being possesses worth and value and the capacity to heal!
