People come to counseling for many reasons these days: Life stress and relationship issues, personal growth goals, career issues, difficulties with connecting socially, heartbreak, grief and sadness—the list goes on, and everyone’s reason is unique to their situation. Regardless of your reason for seeking a counselor, it’s important to find someone who relates to you as a person, and with whom you connect.
My style is direct, supportive, relaxed, and engaging. I’m interactive with my clients—I don’t “just listen,” I’ll share my perspective with you as we explore the issues that led you to seek counseling.
If you’d like to learn more about me and my approach to counseling, please visit my website: www.greatnorthwestcounseling.com There you can find supportive articles about couples’ counseling, breakups, divorce, affairs, fear of intimacy, and more.
Relationships are one area of special interest and expertise for me. Many people describe their relationships with others as the source of their greatest joy in life. During challenging times, however, people often say that these same relationships are the source of their worst pain. I can help you with relationship issues all along this spectrum. I enjoy helping people who are interested in better communication, increased intimacy, problem-solving, and deepening commitment. If you are going through a difficult break-up, divorce, abandonment, affair, or other rift in an important relationship, I can help you work through this painful time—as an individual or couple.
I help many people work through difficult transitions as well. If you are feeling stuck because of a loss or change in your life (or lack thereof!) I can help you cope with your feelings and develop a game-plan to move forward.
I use an integrative approach to therapy—I’m comfortable with several major counseling theories that augment each other and provide a balance in my work. A well-applied integrative approach to counseling helps me to embrace the complexity of the people I see, rather than reducing them to a diagnosis or a set of issues. If you have an interest in or questions about the approaches I use, please ask. I’d be happy to talk with you.
A brief word about my training and experience: I have a doctorate in clinical psychology from Pacific University and over 8 years experience working as a therapist with adults of all ages.
Please email or call me with any questions, or to set up an initial appointment. I enjoy the process of counseling—being a therapist is a great job.

Providing Professional Therapy ~ EMDR

Welcome to my practice. My name is Brandt Hueser. I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in working with children, adolescents, and adults. After graduating with a Masters in Social Work from the University of Michigan in 2003, I have provided both home based and outpatient therapy to at risk youth and families in both Virginia and Oregon.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents and adults dealing with such issues as:
- anxiety and depression
- divorce
- loss
- trauma
- blended families
- ADHD
- school issues
- relationship issues
My training and practice is based in family systems, narrative and cognitive-behavioral theories. In addition, I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which specializes in helping children and adults heal from trauma. I believe that small shifts at any level, i.e. personal, environmental, or within relationships, can affect positive change within any individual and system. I also believe the stories that families and individuals carry with them serve as a blueprint for decision making and patterns throughout life. Changing these patterns and belief systems is an important part in reaching your personal goals. My use of EMDR works to create movement and change when one feels stuck due to unresolved traumas. EMDR is an evidence based practice that helps resolve trauma that has been stored in the body as well as the mind. My holistic approach of mind, body and environment is designed to help you reach your individual and/or family goals.
I do provide a sliding scale. I am also willing to work with insurance companies for reimbursement. Please email me or call me with any questions and to set up an initial appointment.

ME:
I began my higher education journey at Gonzaga University and majored in Psychology and Art, which took me further West to experience Marylhurst University, where I trained to hold a Masters in Art Therapy and Counseling (ATR) from Marylhurst University. I am trained to utilize both art and talk therapy. I have my certification in drug and alcohol counseling (CADC-I) and I earned my license as a professional counselor (LPC).
US:
My approach is client-centered and strengths-based. I work with the individual and/or family to incorporate obtainable and realistic goals and often use art therapy interventions as an avenue for expression and exploration.
If you are unfamiliar with Art Therapy, I would like to articulate that there is no expertise in art needed! The focus is primarily on the process- and offers a venue to explore different materials in order to access various parts of ourselves.
I am committed to affordable and accessible therapy. My standard fee is $85 per hour; however adjustments may be made based on financial need. A free consultation will also be arranged in order for us to discuss your goals and whether I might be the right therapist for you.
I look forward to hearing from you!

In many of life’s challenges it can be difficult to find freedom, resolution, or clarity alone. I work with individuals and couples dealing with a myriad of issues, including stress management, low self-esteem, addictions, grief and loss, difficulty with relationships, and life transitions.
My approach to counseling is clarifying, nurturing, direct, and compassionate. I am committed to joining you in a process of awakening your inner wisdom so that new insights can fully integrate into your lifestyle. I do this by helping you identify and resolve the roadblocks that derail creative freedom, and I counsel in a manner that empowers you to maintain sound relationships with others. My goal is to help you first find clarity, and then to gracefully explore the sources of various challenges and inspire new levels of self-awareness.
I received a Bachelors degree as a double major in Contemplative Psychology and Environmental Studies from Naropa University, and continued there to receive a Masters degree in Transpersonal Counseling Psychology. Major coursework included human development, existential/humanistic psychotherapy, Gestalt and body-centered psychotherapy, transpersonal psychotherapy, alcohol and drug counseling, marriage and couples therapy, family therapy, and group counseling. I am also trained in addictions counseling, including the evidence-based practices of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I hold a certificate in Applied Existential Psychology and I am currently in the process of completing an advanced certification in Gestalt Psychotherapy from the Boulder Psychotherapy Institute, Boulder, Colorado. I am aware that my credentials and the modalities that I use may or may not be familiar to you. Please feel free to ask any questions about them at any time.
My rate is $80 for a 50-minute individual counseling session, or $90 for a 50-minute couples therapy session. I have a limited number of spots open at a sliding scale rate (as low as $40 per session). Please do not hesitate to discuss a rate that would work best for you. I also offer a free half-hour consultation.

My approach to therapy is that we’ re in it together—you to untie the knots in your life
and me to help you through the process. I believe that most people who enter therapy
are trying to make their lives work at this moment and don’ t want to dwell in the past.
I work from a ‘ be here now’ perspective, dipping into the past to help you make the
connections that will help you move forward.
I practice EMDR, which is a form of bilateral stimulation (not hands-on) that helps break
up the stuck spots in the brain. You won’ t forget anything that happened, it just won’ t
have power over you. This mode of therapy has been extensively used with combat vets
and other PTSD/depression/anxiety sufferers to aid in getting their lives back in order. It
is also used as an aid in getting rid of the anger that traps you. Why manage anger when
you would rather get rid of it? Who wants to be angry anyway?
Since I graduated Cambridge (Massachusetts) College in 1999 with an M.Ed. in Marriage
and Family Therapy, I have worked with families, couples, and individuals on issues
including incest, abuse, substance abuse/addiction, family dysfunction, and the problems
these cause in life. My fees are on a sliding scale and meant to be affordable. Come sit
with me for a free half hour and see if you think I can be of help.
