Female Therapists in Broadway District, Portland, OR

Sometimes it’s painful to face things about ourselves or our situations that we would rather ignore. It's worth it to face them because it gives us the opportunity to look at things from a different perspective, to ask different questions, to challenge ourselves, and ultimately to get more of what we want out of life. Understanding where we've been and how we got here is important, but in order to feel better, we often have to do something different. In therapy we can learn to identify what the options are, evaluate the risks and benefits of different options, and make the best choice for ourselves.

Feeling isolated, unsure of your purpose, stressed in your relationships, or ashamed or confused about your thoughts, actions or feelings? You are not alone. Mental health, relationship issues, socioeconomic stress, and life during COVID can all make it challenging to feel truly connected. But experiencing connection – whether with yourself, loved ones, community, or the natural world – is the cornerstone to wellness, and it's worth the vulnerability it takes to get there. Together we'll explore how to support you in building connections and coping skills that nourish you and your relationships for the long term.

I support my clients in finding authenticity, agency, and connection in the face of the inevitable changes life has to offer. If you find yourself processing pain from past relationships, feeling disconnected, or fighting in the kitchen, I would love to meet you there. My goal is to build a safe relationship with you, in which we can explore the complexity of your life; the mundane, the magic, the painful.

As a therapist, I help people connect to their inner strength to meet life’s challenges with creativity and compassion for the self and others using a mindfulness-based approach. My practice is rooted in understanding how our emotions show up in our relationships and inner world as well as somatically in our bodies. And how experience is shaped by the family, community and larger systems we’re a part of. Whether you’re feeling stressed, overwhelmed, anxious — or simply stuck — I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space to explore difficult emotions and challenging life issues.

My goal is to help people overcome challenges with maternal mental health, trauma, anxiety, and addiction. My work is focused on helping people understand themselves better, overcome barriers and blockages, and learn how to tune into their own needs. I am passionate about helping moms transition into motherhood and heal birth trauma, as navigating new parenthood isn't always as smooth as we hope.

As far as anyone can tell, you’ve “made it” professionally. You’re finally making the salary you want, in the job you’ve been focused on getting as you moved up in your field. But getting to this place often meant you had to work twice as hard as your dominant culture counterparts. Even in the climb, you’ve known that you’re ambitious but not cutthroat. And now that you’ve reached your career goals, you’re wondering: Why do my relationships with my co-workers, my friends, my partner(s), or my family still feel stagnant, unsatisfying, or confusing?

Do you feel like you’re expending a tremendous amount of energy just trying to keep your life together and often feel like you're falling short? It's time for a change. I work well with clients who are seeking help with stress management, anxiety, procrastination, focus, life transitions, and relationship issues. We will work on empowering you with greater understanding and awareness so you can develop tools and strategies to make positive changes in your life and reach your personal and professional goals.

Life and relationships are full of growth opportunities for all of us. I work in collaboration with clients to increase connection and awareness of core values so they can make lasting change. My style is positive, warm and direct. For those working to find increased joy and stability within themselves and their relationships, we can explore together the areas that feel stuck and ways to increase functioning and open up more choice.

If you are here, I want to help! I believe that therapy is meant to empower clients to know that they are capable of change and living a fuller, more integrated life. I work with adolescents and adults, utilizing a bio-psychosocial-spiritual approach in therapy with the goal of creating a safe haven for clients. This simply means integrating the many parts of a person into therapy in the hope of improving one’s emotional, spiritual and physical well-being. I also aspire to explore the impact of significant relationships and the influence of larger social systems on a client's sense of wholeness and ability to achieve desired growth.

Are you looking a radical cheerleader for whatever goals are important to you or a therapist who will happily roll their eyes at social norms/expectations? That's me! To see if we're a good fit, reach out via email to schedule a free 10 minute video consultation.

Hi there. I’m Luciana (she/her). I’m a clinical social work associate in SW Washington. I’m passionate about helping folks feel seen & heard, work through trauma, and build resilience so they can live wholeheartedly. I know finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. If you think we’d work well together, please reach out and schedule an appointment. Looking forward to meeting you!

If you feel like life isn’t what you want it to be, you’re not connecting with others in the way that feels good to you, or if past patterns are no longer serving you, you’re not alone. I work from a place of compassion, understanding, intuition, and humor combined with an extensive array of therapeutic tools to help you reduce discomfort, heal, and engage in the life you want. I welcome the opportunity to work with people of all identities.

I believe that we all do the best we can. I believe in the wisdom of the individual and the strength in each of us. I believe that there is power in our stories. I believe that we are stronger together. I believe we can change, do better and be better in our daily lives. I believe that small steps turn into big changes. I believe in being brave, finding your voice and believing in yourself. I believe that laughter is the best medicine and not taking ourselves too seriously. I focus on relationship first in all the work that I do. I focus on connection and the strengths of the individual to drive the work and the change.

Have you been feeling lost, overwhelmed, or out of control lately? Is there a voice in your head telling you you are not good enough and can’t handle what life has to bring? Good therapy gives us a space where we can safely talk about our hopes and fears while we lay down a strong foundation from which we can build our future dreams. I believe in everyone’s ability to heal themselves and would love to partner with you on your journey of self discovery.
