Sexual Addiction Therapists in Tigard, OR

I believe therapy is about a therapist and a client collaborating together to address mental health issues and or deal with life problems. I believe the client (You) is the expert about themselves concerning strengths, weaknesses, and issues of concern. I believe it is my purpose as a therapist to build a therapeutic relationship which supports the development of your insights, and life skills; including the identification of strengths, and support systems that may aid in the reduction of negative symptoms and improve quality. I do tele-health and I am hoping to be in person by summer 2023 and joined by Mason my therapy dog.

YOU are the KEY component to your relationships! Experience healing, renew strength & generate peace in your life today. I'm not your stereotypical couch psychologist, sitting in a chair saying 'how does that make you feel, and tell me more.' I'll engage with you to help you improve your life. I'm also not totally removed from the challenges you may be facing. As a husband, father, & business owner I'm out there living life & facing some of those same challenges. There is hope, and there is change available for you. Call me, let's get your life back!

Over the last 36 years I have been grateful to be able to help many people with the anxieties of life. I have also helped to resolve couples' conflict, to heal guilt and shame, to manage loss, to heal relationships with living or deceased parents, and to lighten spiritual burdens. A good portion of my practice has been focused on long term recovery from addictions to alcohol, drugs, or sex. I have worked extensively with anxiety, depression, grief, ADD, OCD, trauma, and divorce, and I provide counseling for family-owned businesses. Please read more about my approach to counseling at www.larryconnercounseling.com.

Life can often be tough and full of surprises. We all need help sometimes going through things life throws at us. I offer a safe and confidential space to explore and wrestle with whatever you are dealing with in your life now. The first thing I want you to know is that there is hope.

Since you are reading this profile, you are likely feeling a need for change. Fortunately, it is unnecessary to live life with fear, confusion, or loneliness. Just because you can't see how to get there doesn't mean it can't be done. I would be honored to walk this path of healing with you. Borrow from my hope and experience that things CAN be different. Whatever block you may be experiencing is simply a signal that your body and mind wants to heal. Together we can interpret those signals and create a healing dialogue.

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.

Everyone could use support when things don't go as we expect. My main goal is to be the person sitting with you during your highest highs and lowest lows. You are not alone and you have what it takes. People of all ages need to be truly seen and heard which is what I am here for. We are all doing the best we can, yet we can desire to change and become better. We could all use a hand wading through challenging times. I will be the support you need, and we will work together to create better days ahead.

People wanting to heal from grief and loss, trauma, addiction, self-esteem issues, or the overwhelming stress and anxiety that can accompany life’s transitions, have come to the right place. As a practicing clinician with a lifetime of experience (and many hours of graduate course work) I am trained to offer guidance and support to those who seek change within themselves, their lives, and their relationships.

Does life feel overwhelming like being trapped in a never-ending maze? Having these feelings are perfectly normal. Talking through the life concerns or worries can help but it’s hard to share deep personal concerns with family or friends. The pressure of family, work, or past trauma's can cause anxiety, stress, even depression. Whether dealing with a difficult relationship, career, or life challenges talking with a trained professional, who is caring and compassionate can help you find freedom and start enjoying life. Think about how great it would be living life instead of just making it through each day.

Life is about relationships, with self, family, friends, co-workers and God. When we experience difficulties in one or more of these relationships it is helpful to seek counsel. I enjoy counseling with individuals or families to facilitate healthy relationships. I use Solution Focused/Strength Based and Cognitive Behavioral and draw from other theories to create the best course of counseling for each client.

What was once an exciting and vibrant relationship has become stale and unfulfilling. You may feel like you don't know who your partner is anymore. Or who you are, for that matter. You aren't sure you're meeting your partner's needs, and you certainly aren't feeling as though they are meeting yours. You are probably wondering if it's possible for the two of you to ever be happy again. But you aren't ready to give up just yet.

We are centered on helping you build skills to love and live well. Living Well Counseling Center provides personalized care for each individual, couple, and family. Our work is focused on empowering you to achieve a high level of emotional regulation and mindfulness to produce meaningful and lasting change in your life and relationships.

Emotional connection is crucial for thriving and satisfying relationships. Shame and trauma can keep us stuck in negative cycles of thought and behavior. I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups within the context of their current and prior relationships. I primarily employ Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Restoration Therapy (RT) techniques.

Hi. I am primary focused and specialized in working with couples and relationship issues. Therapy is a space where clients can get support and guidance. I work with clients on a range of issues and emotions including couples counseling, dealing with grief and loss, stressors, and trauma. I believe therapy can offer a place of safety, exploration, and acceptance. I am here to help clients identify, understand, and work through their life challenges in a supportive therapeutic space. Check out my website (www.counseloregon.com) for more information about our group practice.

Taking the first step to get help is often the most difficult, but it is often a hopeful sign that you are ready for growth and ready for change. Finding a compassionate, experienced psychologist at such a time will have the powerful benefit of moving you in a focused way on your needed areas of growth and discovering new areas of strength. Dr. Blakeslee has helped hundreds of individuals, scores of couples and dozens of families in his 20+ years of practice. The science of psychology has made treatment for depression, anxiety, trauma and dysfunctional relationships more successful.

I am a therapist with over thirty years clinical experience. Over the years I've worked with and helped hundreds of individuals and couples through a wide range of difficulties. My style is respectful, interactive and dynamic. I've learned that there are a lot ways to help, to heal and to promote personal growth, and that no particular approach fits every person or situation. Anxious? Depressed? Or individuals with problems arising from recent traumatic events or from childhood trauma or neglect, whose parents may have been inconsistent or worse, I often combine EMDR, IFS and other mindfulness strategies.

Tailwind ADHD offers ADHD assessment, 1:1 therapy, and groups for adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and relationships issues. Text us to schedule a consultation at (971) 999-3193 www.tailwindadhd.com We'd love to talk with you.

Calm, Confident and Compassionate! What are you hoping for? A first step in what we aspire toward is having a clear vision of the goal. The next step is trusting there's a way to get there. You're here because you are wanting to take your next step, trusting that something new is possible. I believe safe, constructive therapeutic relationships 'reveal' and heal, in that they can provide new insights and opportunities to 're-wire' the brain. We were never meant to do things in our own strength, isolated from relationship and without help. Let's create some new possibilities on your journey.

Seeking the assistance of a professional counselor is an important decision. Reaching out for help can be difficult, but once the decision has been made, most people, in my experience, find the outcome to be extremely rewarding. Stress, relationship difficulties, and career disenchantment are just a few of the normal issues that anyone may encounter over the course of one's life. Seeking an experienced and skilled counselor to help deal with any of these concerns is a demonstration of personal strength and healthy coping.
