Connecting with you and establishing a solid foundation is my first priority. You'll find my personal approach in therapy to be compassionate, individualized, and non-judgmental; while also being honest and straight-forward.

I have over six years of experience in providing mental health services. I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology at SMU in Dallas, TX where I worked in a community mental health clinic treating adults, couples, and adolescents with a variety of mental health needs. After earning my degree, I moved to Oregon where I began a private practice and also worked as a Child/Family Counselor in the Washington County school system. Since then, I have provided treatment services in a residential Dual Diagnosis (mental health & addiction) treatment facility as well as in a mental health crisis stabilization unit.

Treatment specializations include:

* Therapy for Depression and Anxiety
* Trauma Recovery
* Relationship Problems
* Overcoming patterns of self-harm (cutting, self-injury, other harmful behaviors)
* Severe and persistent mental illness (such as Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar Disorder)
* Dual Diagnosis Recovery (mental health plus substance abuse problems)
* Stress Management
* Addiction & Recovery

I'm pleased to work with individuals -- adults or adolescents -- as well as couples. I welcome the LBGTQ community, and am comfortable working with ex-offenders, as well as those in transition from treatment in psychiatric hospitals or intensive outpatient programs. I also have substantial experience with group therapy, offering skills and strategies from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and the "Seeking Safety" model.

In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to your needs to help you attain the personal growth you're striving for. I employ several different therapeutic models depending on the type of difficulties you are having. Most of my experience is in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. Each of these types of therapy have been evaluated and proven to be effective for a variety of problems.

I welcome your call or email, and I'm glad to schedule a no-cost in-person consultation appointment. I look forward to hearing from you.

You have not chosen to feel depressed, anxious, angry or guilty.

Your thoughts, feelings and actions can actually serve an invaluable role in informing you of what you need, want or might want to avoid. When we identify a part of our life or of ourselves that is not the way we'd like it to be, we have the opportunity to make a choice: we can look away or we can look a little closer.

I believe that many of us underestimate or devalue our own instincts and spend too much time telling ourselves that we just aren't measuring up. I believe life is too short to be lived from this perspective.

Our work together is based on your goals, values and priorities. The relationship we create can provide you with a consistent, reliable and accepting environment that will allow you to be yourself. You can expect our work together to be authentic, energizing, challenging and sometimes, even fun.

Therapy is a unique and dynamic modality that can provide insight, information and validation. Insight can lead to increased self-esteem, tolerance for uncomfortable feelings and improved communication skills. Why not invest in yourself?

Consultations and appointments are available weekday evenings and weekends. I welcome your email or call.

Brooke Hammond, L.C.S.W., A.T.R.

Oregon Board of Licensed Clinical Social Workers, License #L4847 ~ Art Therapy Credentials Board #11-046

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Art Therapist
EMDR Practitioner (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

Focusing on children, adolescents, adults, LGBTQ, trauma survivors, depression, anxiety
602-339-0899
Email: Brooke@BrookeHammondCounseling.com
Website: www.BrookeHammondCounseling.com

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Art Therapist I offer my clients the stability of a clinical background in conjunction with creative and flexible therapeutic modalities. I believe that by exploring and expanding on existing strengths it is possible to find solutions to the issues that bring us into therapy.

I specialize in treating the symptoms of trauma (anxiety, fears, phobias, nightmares, flashbacks) using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR is a remarkably effective tool for resolving traumatic or painful events from the past that continue to affect you today. EMDR can bring relatively quick relief from troubling feelings and memories. It does not erase the painful memories, but rather, takes away their physical and emotional impact. EMDR might be useful for you if: you have been feeling "stuck" and unable to "get over" certain events or feelings; you find yourself repeating patterns throughout your life that are damaging to you or the people you care about; you have experienced a significant traumatic event or a series of hurtful incidents that continue to influence your feelings and behaviors. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has endorsed EMDR as an effective treatment for PTSD.

Many people are not able to access their feelings, motivations, or memories solely by talking. They find that engaging in something physical, visual, and tangible can unlock energy and facilitate healing. I use art therapy as a starting point, a place to begin to ask questions and explore deeper feelings. We may use art as a way to investigate and discover hard to talk about issues, or simply as a means to reduce anxiety while talking in session. Art therapy can be a powerful tool for excavating internal, subconscious feelings and making them external and more visible. It gives us a way to look at ourselves from a completely different angle. Not every feeling is a word.

I have over thirteen years experience working with children, adolescents, and families in a variety of settings, including community-based mental health agencies, prisons and immigration detention centers, families' homes, schools, international social service agencies, and psychiatric hospitals. I work with survivors of domestic violence, abuse, trauma, and torture; immigrants and refugees; LGBTQ; people experiencing depression and anxiety; and people struggling with transitions, grief, and loss.

My fee is $80 per 50 minute session. I also reserve some spaces at a lower cost. I encourage you to call for a free 30-minute initial consultation to determine we are a good fit.

I look forward to meeting you and beginning our work together.

The decision to seek help takes courage. Seeking therapy also shows a desire to live a more full and complete life. I am encouraged by courage and desire that you have shown by pursuing therapy as an option to assist you in working through the struggles of life. Feelings of depression, stress, relationship conflicts, parenting issues, divorce, all weigh heavy on us. It becomes difficult to function and carry out daily tasks. I believe that therapy can help you move through the struggles and challenges that life throws at you. Therapy can assist you in turning your desire into reality; recurrent struggle into sustainable change.

I offer therapy services to individuals, couples, and families of all ages. My approach to therapy is a combination of Interpersonal ~ Emotion Focused ~ Family Systems Therapy. Specific areas in which I have received specialized training are:

~ Individual Therapy

~ Family Therapy
~ Marital & Relational Conflict
~ Parent ~ Adolescent Relationships
~ Divorce
~ Grief & Loss
~ Trauma Recovery

I am a Registered Intern with the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors & Therapists. I am currently in the process of earning my License in Marriage & Family Therapy. I earned my Masters Degree in Couples, Marriage, and Family Therapy from Portland State University. I also hold a Bachelors Degree in Cross-cultural Ministries and Bible from Manhattan Christian College in Manhattan, Kansas.

My standard fee for a 50-minute session is $60. However, I feel it is important for counseling to be available to people in need regardless of their financial situation, so I also offer a sliding fee scale based on individual circumstances.

If you have any questions about whether therapy is right for you, I encourage you to call for a free consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.

Life presents all of us with challenges. Sometimes these challenges can feel overwhelming. Perhaps we're having trouble developing meaningful relationships, or an existing relationship is not working out as hoped. Maybe we're feeling depressed or anxious, yet we're having difficulty identifying the source of these feelings. We may be experiencing deep grief, bouts of intense anger, or even a sense that we're falling apart at the seams.

As a counselor with 10 years of experience, I have learned to see life's challenges as providing us an opportunity for personal growth and healing. I help people take advantage of these opportunities by encouraging them to rediscover their inner resources. Although awareness of our intuitive wisdom may become clouded, we can learn to better access our own personal strength through a process of mindfulness and self-reflection. We then find that we are more able to manage the day-to-day choices that affect our sense of wellbeing.

My practice is focused primarily on young and middle-aged adult individuals and couples. I am experienced and comfortable working with a broad range of issues including: depression, anxiety, negative self-image, excessive guilt and shame, relationship problems, grief and loss, self-sabotage, and existential and/or spiritual confusion. I am experienced and comfortable working with a diverse client population, including GLBT clients.

I hold a Bachelor's Degree from Stony Brook University and a Master's Degree in Counseling from the University of Montana. I have been previously licensed as a counselor out of state. I am currently a registered intern working toward licensure in Oregon, so I cannot accept insurance at this time; however, this situation allows me to offer a generous sliding scale from $35 to $80.

Understanding that each home has a climate of it’s own, I offer a calm and steady presence to help guide you through your storm no matter how hard the wind is blowing. Therapy is a wise choice that exhibits your greatest strength ~ the love you have for yourself, your child and/or your family.

Recognizing the broad array of traumas that children and families face and endure, I have an unshakable and unconditional regard for the resilience of the human spirit. I am continually reinforced in my belief in the wisdom of youth and the strength of families.

I have a M.S. from Portland State University with dual credentials. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, an experienced school counselor and family therapist, and as such I work closely with families and schools. I also received extensive training in family therapy at the University of Utah and have been a crisis therapist working with youth and families at risk since 2005.

I offer a free 30-minute consultation: an opportunity for us to meet, discuss your journey and create a forward path. We can discuss a comfortable fee fit for you during our first consultation session. Because of my dedication to providing affordable services, my fee is just $40. I do not bill insurance directly, however I will provide you with a statement you may submit for insurance reimbursement.

I look forward to meeting with you. Lets shine the light on your future, together!

Professional Counseling for Children & Families

Email: segbers.lpc@gmail.com

I am a licensed professional counselor, specializing in serving children and families on goals and issues related to anxiety, anger management, social skill difficulties, family relational problems, trauma, depression, and grief and loss. In addition to my private practice, I work as a clinical supervisor and child and family therapist in a school-based therapeutic program.

I obtained my Bachelors of Psychology from the University of Portland and my Masters in Counseling Psychology from Pacific University. I have been working with children and families in community mental health settings since 2000.

As a child and family therapist, I work with children and their caregivers to create relationships and environments which foster healthy growth and development for children. I work from a strength based approach with children and families and employ a cognitive-behavioral focus in my therapeutic work. At times my work focuses on educating parents and caregivers about appropriate play strategies and interaction techniques with their children. Alternatively, my work may also focus on working directly with children and assisting them to develop new behaviors to better cope with the stress of daily life. In all settings, my major focus is on developing and reinforcing skills which research has shown to foster healthy child development, self esteem, and relationships with others. I encourage open communication between myself and my clients as I strive to fit appropriate techniques to each child and family. My main objective in working with children and families is to assist families in developing nurturing and enriching environments for all members.

As a licensed professional counselor, I am qualified to work with insurance companies for reimbursement and my services may be covered in part or in full by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. My rate is $90 for a 50 minute session. Reduced fee sessions can be arranged in times of financial stress, and I offer a 30 minute initial consultation session at no charge in an effort to determine if we are a good therapeutic fit and assist you in determining if we can work together toward your goals.

Please call or email me with any questions or to arrange an initial session. I look forward to hearing from you.

I received my Master of Social Work degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and am currently finishing up the final stages of my Ph.D. from the same institution. Prior to becoming a social worker, I worked as an elementary school teacher.

As a child and family therapist, I work with families of all shapes and sizes to help them improve communication, support each other, and develop and practice skills that will last beyond my work with them. I have extensive experience working with children who have struggled with trouble in school, difficulty making friends, as well as depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse and substance use. I have specialized training in grief and loss, anger issues and substance use.

I also work with parents who want a sounding board as they strive to be the best parents they can be to their child. I feel comfortable working with clients from different ethnicities, cultural groups, religious and spiritual backgrounds, ages, incomes, genders, sexual orientations and relationship status.

I strongly believe that counseling should be available to families regardless of their financial situation. Therefore I strive to keep my services affordable. My standard fee is $40 for a 50 minute session, and if this level of fee is prohibitive, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am able to offer limited lower cost sessions to families facing extreme economic hardship. Additionally, I am happy to provide you with a statement that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

Specializing in Nature-based Counseling & Outdoor Therapy

"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better." ~ Albert Einstein

503-956-9845
Email: eric_diilio@hotmail.com

Counseling that finds solutions, healing, balance, and positivity while utilizing natural elements and experiences in the outdoors.

Philosophy & Orientation I believe that insight gained during counseling can lead to solutions and lasting answers for life's most troubling challenges. Insight is obtained by articulating awareness gotten from honest mindfulness and discussions within the therapy setting. Action taken in one's day-to-day life based upon these new insights then will lead to more solutions, more achievements, optimal mental health, and fulfillment in life.

A connection with our natural world is extremely helpful (if not, vital) to our outlook, clarity, and overall well being.
A disconnection from being exposed to nature can exacerbate mental health troubles. Inversely, exposure to nature and experiences in natural settings has immense and proven positive therapeutic results (new perspectives gained, quicker recovery from trauma and illness, incorporation of healthful balances which nature exemplifies, rejuvenation, grounding, and minimizing of anxiety, to name a few).

I do not exclusively practice nature-based therapy if it is not of interest to you. You will always be in charge of the route taken in therapy anyway. There will be a constant tracking of progress to ensure our efforts are leading to healing and resolution.

For:
~ Depression
~ Anxiety
~ Life Transitions
~ Adolescent Issues
~ Relationships
~ Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
~ Addictions
~ Stress Management
~ Time Management
~ Self-Esteem
~ Grief & Loss

Background: I received my Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology at Lewis & Clark College with a focus on Ecopsychology and Wilderness Therapy.

Fees: I will always work to make effective therapy affordable. I am not able to accept insurance, however I am in a position to offer extremely inexpensive sessions. I charge $40 per 50-minute session, and a sliding scale is available. Our initial 30-minute consultation appointment is free.

Holistic, Collaborative Counseling for Adults & Adolescents

I believe in a holistic approach to therapy. It is important to look at people as a whole and not just a sum of their parts. Every aspect of our personality integrates together and affects how we behave, feel and view the world.

For my clients I offer a collaborative approach where I work with them to help find and uncover their strengths and challenge the negative patterns in their lives. I help provide my clients with an opportunity to develop their sense of self by looking at how those negative attitudes, feelings and behaviors are keeping them from finding their true positive potential.

In a therapeutic relationship I have a warm, genuine and empathic style that helps offer my clients a supportive and nurturing relationship. I believe that in this type of therapeutic relationship I can help my clients learn how to find their own solutions to their life situations. The therapeutic relationship is an opportunity to explore embedded emotional patterns in a safe and secure space.

I honor the uniqueness of my clients. All spiritual, cultural, sexual and political orientations are welcome. II have experience working with:

Personal Growth ~ Life Transitions ~ Emotional Struggles ~ Relationship Issues ~ Depression and hopelessness
Anxiety and Panic attacks ~ Trauma ~ Women's Issues ~ GLBT Issues ~ Grief and Loss ~ Shame
Compulsions (to food, spending, relationships, etc. ~ Low self esteem and lack of confidence

I am unable to take insurance at this time. My standard fee is $80, but I offer a generous sliding fee scale to those experiencing financial hardship, so please do not let the fee stand in your way. I look forwarding to hearing from you to talk about how we might work together.

Please feel free to call me at 503-610-3736 or email me to set up an appointment. I have daytime and evening appointment times available.
