Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Therapists in Portland, OR

As a woman of color myself, I hope to center people of color and those with multicultural backgrounds. I aim to help clients in their exploration of relationships (family/friends/romantic) and their social and cultural context to guide our collaborative work to identify one's values or goals.

I work with individuals navigating the complexities of trauma, grief, or significant life transitions. You might be struggling with anxiety, depression, or the aftermath of a traumatic experience, such as childhood abuse, sexual assault, or a traumatic loss. You could be dealing with feelings of estrangement or grappling with neurodivergence, and they may feel isolated, misunderstood, or overwhelmed by their emotions. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore their experiences and emotions and provide validation, understanding, and effective coping strategies to manage your symptoms.

Glenn was born in Brazil and immigrated to the US with his family at a young age. He’s called Oregon his home for most of his life, living all over the Greater Portland Area. He studied psychology, sociology, and childhood development at Portland State University, and received his Master’s in Counseling from Western Seminary. His general philosophy of therapy is the free exchange of ideas in a healthy and safe environment while working towards unified goals. In his home time, Glenn will be spending time with his family, writing, painting, and plucking the occasional tune on his guitar.

Perhaps you are realizing that compassionate, supportive, non-judgmental support is what will brace you for the next steps in your personal journey. I am here. My collaborative therapeutic approach is rooted in mindful awareness and acceptance, informed by relational and attachment models, and guided by an appreciation of each person’s unique existential search for meaning. I aim to foster a space where you can engage in your present experience, show up as you are, and find awareness, choice, and support in the life that awaits you.

I help people who have been considered "non-traditional" in many ways, people who have been "othered", and felt like outsiders their whole lives. Perhaps you are feeling disconnected, stuck in patterns, at a crossroads, hitting a wall, desiring change or needing nonjudgmental guidance. You don't have to do this alone. Prioritizing your healing is a powerful way we positively impact ourselves and others. Together we create a supported container for whatever you bring, to facilitate deep understanding and create workable sustainable solutions. I specialize in trauma, transgender identities and ADHD. Offering ASD/ADHD assessments.

Sometimes the act of verbalizing our experiences can be very challenging. Art can be a great way to begin the therapeutic process and to further explore the unseen and unsaid aspects of our lives. My approach focuses primarily on the combination of art therapy and internal family systems therapy, to help my clients gain a deeper understanding of their different parts and how those parts show up in the world. I try to be very collaborative and transparent with my clients to create a more equal dynamic in our sessions.

My unique blend of life experiences and professional education gives me a distinct outlook on the complexities surrounding identity, mental health, and resilience. I hold a special interest in aiding individuals grappling with attachment traumas, particularly those exploring non-monogamous relationships. The ideal client for me is someone conscious of their challenges and in search of a therapist willing to accompany them on the sometimes uncomfortable journey towards healing and self-discovery, focusing on building healthy attachments and reevaluating personal beliefs and life narratives.

I work with people who want help learning how to manage their anxiety, break out of depressive patterns, and recover from grief. I utilize a Solutions-Focused approach that emphasizes clear action-based steps that are easy to use. My priority is to help you build a long lasting sense of resilience, confidence, and flexibility so you can live a happy and healthy life.

Are you struggling with anxiety and depression that just doesn't seem to go away? Is a previous or current experience of substance abuse negatively impacting your life? Are there big lifestyle changes you are currently adjusting to, such as parenting stress or relationship issues? Is there a traumatic experience you've gone through that makes it hard to get up in the morning? If you resonate with these concerns or issues, Andrea will be a good fit for you. Her experience in these concerns, matched with her qualifications and empathic nature, can be a great fit for any client who is feeling stuck, struggling, and needing support.

You have hopes and desires but feel a lack of motivation, energy, purpose or interest. The things that once brought you relief or joy no longer do or have become the problem. The world no longer feels like a safe place. You know that getting support would be helpful but where do you begin and how do you trust a stranger. You long to find support from a caring, compassionate person to help you learn self acceptance, develop resilience and move forward in your life. For there to be peace on Earth, we must each find peace within. I especially enjoy working with young adults, HSPs, "late bloomers" and creative artists.

I enjoy supporting people who are experiencing various challenges, including grief and loss, trauma, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. We often feel terrified to face our own emotional pain and get to know the parts of ourselves that are feeling helpless, hopeless, or disempowered. I believe that each of us has everything we need within ourselves to find healing and growth. It is my job to support you to connect to yourself and find that path within you. I utilize various techniques to help you cope with (and feel) difficult emotions, connect to your mind and body, and understand the impact of your past and present.

Too often we give our power away to letting a thought, a circumstance or interaction rob us of our peace. Have you even felt that your life is just "the way things are?" Although it is true we cannot always control external forces, we are capable of controlling how we respond to them which is a simple concept to grasp but takes intentionality to implement. The good news is the best version of yourself is already within you and as you learn to observe your experience without judgement, you will have the ability to offer greater acceptance and compassion for yourself and to others to create a ripple effect of positive change.

I’m a compassionate believer in the power of individual stories. As a professional counselor intern based in Oregon, I provide a non-judgmental space where individuals can openly share their experiences and work collaboratively towards shaping their present circumstances and future aspirations.

I have deep respect for the ways our lived and inherited experiences show up in our relationships and sexuality, and how both of these are impacted by larger systems. It's an honor to work with clients who have curiosity about their experiences and a desire to overcome the obstacles that are preventing them from experiencing joy and belonging in their lives and their relationships. I’m particularly drawn to working with relationship systems: friends, families, partnerships, polyamorous/non-monogamous relationships, and kink/BDSM relationships.

Do you struggle with stress, depression, anxiety? Do you feel overwhelmed, or like you past/ current trauma is keeping your from living your best like? Do you desire to unlearn some of your unhealthy ways of doing things and learn new helpful tactics for everyday situations? If this sounds familiar to you and you are tired of doing the same things and feeling stuck, I would like to help. Therapy is a place where you can establish and reclaim your sense of self and learn to live freely. We will work together to explore behaviors and thought patterns to encourage personal growth.

My intention is to provide a safe and compassionate container for you to feel seen, heard, and understood. A supportive space guides you toward slowing down and turning inward to tap into your true self. I believe the most beautiful gift you can offer the world is your fully aware, individuated, and integrated self, which allows you to cultivate genuine connections with yourself, others, and the world around you. I weave together my background in social science research and yoga movement therapy with mindfulness-based, body-centered therapies such as Transpersonal, Hakomi, and Gestalt to be with what's arising for you right now.

Hey there, I'm Ben Mosebach and I'm not your typical therapist. I'm not here to offer you clichés or empty promises. What I offer is authenticity and the potential to profoundly impact your life. My approach to therapy is straightforward and down-to-earth. Theoretically I am rooted in the humanistic perspectives encompassing aspects of existentialism, gestalt and person centered therapy. But I'm not interested in wasting your time with superficial chatter or jargon-filled language. I'm here to roll up my sleeves and get to work with you, tackling whatever challenges you're facing head-on.
