Oregon Health Plan (OHP) Therapists in Canby, OR

I am actively accepting new clients. If you are seeking help with trauma, an eating disorder, struggles with food, your body, or anything in between, there are options other than what we have been taught. Our culture and our world often create an environment for people that encourages self denial. A wide variety of traumas often leave people with chronic feelings of fear, trouble with sleep, relationship distress, and dependence on something that might harm them.

Fatigued, disengaged, searching for meaning and purpose? Do you feel like you constantly abandon or disregard your own thoughts and feelings in relationships with others? Do you experience worry or concern that never seems to stop? Whether it’s a specific problem or general displeasure that you are searching for help with, I will hold space for you as we work together to explore root causes, process trauma, and build and establish new patterns and skills that allow you to be fully present and invested in your life.

My counseling philosophy is rooted in the idea that all humans have the ability to grow and heal. No human being is broken, and most mental health struggles stem, in part, from difficult external circumstances, like a traumatic past or a flawed culture. Through active listening, reflection, and gentle challenging, I help you become better acquainted with yourself, so that you can live in closer alignment with your values. I specialize in working with eating disorders and body image distress, but I also work with anxiety, depression, relationship and family struggles.

I specialize in working with people who have experienced any sort of trauma in their life, including but not limited to domestic violence, sexual abuse, emotional manipulation, neglect, and grief. I will teach you to process and respond to your emotions in healthy ways, improve communication skills, and shift the way you see yourself and the world around you. I will help you create more balance and flexibility in the things you do and the way you live your life. I also help clients with issues including intimate partner violence, depression, anxiety, responding to anger, life transitions, and low self-esteem.

My focus is on empowering others in areas that include emotional wellbeing, career, relationships, spirituality, health, and personal achievement. I have a passion for holistic health and wellness, always look for the best in others, and strive to help my clients work towards becoming the best version of themselves.

I am Accepting New Clients Now! My role is to provide people with a non-judgmental space so people can heal and grow. If you struggle with anxiety or depression and need to talk with someone about what you are experiencing perhaps it is time to take that first step on the journey to mental wellness. I am here to help you on that journey and provide a safe space during a time with so many unknowns.

I am honored to walk alongside my clients on their journeys of self-discovery. With a background in community-based crisis services, I enjoy integrating creative tools to help my clients build trust in therapy and in themselves. You may be facing a big life change, addressing relationship issues, processing past or present trauma, learning to live with challenges like anxiety or depression, or seeking to more fully understand and align with your values. In therapy, you are the expert on your experiences, and we will journey together towards your goals.

I have over ten years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have worked with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, parental and family separation, adoption, and complex trauma, among other issues. My experience comes from working in county mental health systems, non-profit systems, and private practice. I have experience working with adolescents experiencing depression and anxiety, complex trauma, conduct disorder, separation from family, adoption, and involvement in the juvenile system. I have worked with adults suffering from addiction to substances, complex trauma, partner/family issues, abuse, domestic violence, depression, and anxiety.

Being part of the interconnected natural world, we thrive in connection, and without connection, we wither. In our work together we will collaborate in understanding what makes you come alive and wither, to look for ways to get unstuck and make meaning of your emotions, reactivity, and suffering. I believe that individuals and families can tap into their inner strength to repair and grow new resilience with guidance and support. My role is to restore balance, build communication, and provide support to help you create space to learn and integrate new skills and encourage new perspectives as you grow and thrive in connections.

therapy is some real heavy, vulnerable shit and building a strong therapeutic relationship is at the core of creating a safe space for you to enter into the process. with this in mind, my practice is rooted in transparency, honest feedback, and is trauma-informed. i will openly share my process with you & what might be beneficial to try. i will inform you of when i am about to ask questions intended feel “spicy” and/or are likely to illicit strong internal response (which can sometimes get real uncomfortable real quick). for these reasons, i tend to align well with folx who prefer a direct, purposefully challenging approach.

I believe that people seek counseling for a variety of reasons and when people are suffering from mental and or emotional pain, it can interfere with a persons overall wellbeing. Many times when a person is feeling and experiencing pain, this can make a person feel disconnected from others. I believe that when a person reaches out for help and support, this is the first step in the healing process. Through establishing and building a therapeutic relationship, based on congruence, unconditional positive regard, and empathetic understanding, I can help facilitate a place to foster healing, personal growth, change, and self discovery.

Hi I am Sarah, it is nice to meet you. I try to create a therapeutic space where the individuals I see can slow down, take time for non-judgmental reflection, process emotions and find the things that help them to live with authenticity and intention. I work to support and collaborate with adolescents and adults of all backgrounds to find growth, seek change and begin the healing process. I endeavor to make therapy a creative and safe space where we can explore how each person is able to find what works for them. In the first few sessions I like to get a sense of who you are, what you are seeking and to make goals for our work.
