Whether it is the first time you are seeking therapy or if you are returning to therapy, the process of finding a therapist can be daunting. I believe it is essential to find a therapist that feels right, someone who can understand you.

I attempt to meet individuals where they are at, assisting each to examine their particular issues in a warm environment that fosters growth through exploration. My approach is psychodynamic; I work collaboratively with individuals in illuminating new strategies for creating positive change.

I hold a Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work (MSW) from the University of Chicago and have experience working as a therapist in hospitals, schools, community mental health centers, and residential treatment facilities. I have over ten years of experience working with families, couples, adolescents, and adults coping with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, loss, substance abuse, eating disorders, phobias and relationship difficulties. I provide culturally appropriate services and practice in a way that is LGBTQ affirming. I am a Clinical Social Work Associate (CSWA) in the state of Oregon and I am in the process of becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW).

I am committed to providing effective, affordable therapy; I have a flexible rate and provide a free 30 minute consultation to discuss the best way to meet your needs. I look forward to hearing from you.

• Are you depressed or anxious?
• Do you struggle with problem thought or behavior patterns?
• Are you troubled by memories of childhood neglect or other trauma?
• Do you feel shame or regret about how you eat or about your body?
• Are there challenges or questions in your relationships?

I have helped empower many clients to explore and come to terms with issues like these.

My years of education, training and work in this field have given me a detailed perspective about some of the concerns that trouble people – as well as the underlying challenges and complicated feelings that come up when dealing with them.

My broad, integrative background helps me work sensitively and effectively with clients to meet their individual goals in therapy and emphasizes mindfulness and insight. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I practice within the profession's highest ethical standards, which includes respect for diversity.

My standardized fee is $95 for a fifty-minute session. I will work with clients to set a modified rate that reflects their ability to pay for therapy, especially if they are uninsured or prefer not to use insurance. Shorter or longer meetings can be arranged on a pro-rated basis. Sessions over the telephone are also available.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Jay Hopkins, M.A.

Welcome! And thanks for checking out my practice. The process of choosing a therapist can feel vulnerable and daunting; and engaging in a therapeutic relationship in order to address and work through your particular suffering takes incredible insight and courage.

We all get stuck sometimes; and we suffer. Maybe you feel isolated, alone?

Disconnected from others, your own feelings, your body? Overwhelmed by chronic negative thoughts and feelings?

Perhaps you struggle with low self-worth and feeling “not good enough”? Maybe you feel anxious, nervous, and are unable to release and relax? Perhaps you have particular “unfinished business” from your past that perpetually plagues you in the present, causing problems in your daily life and in your personal relationships?

I can help un-stick you, and get you moving, flowing, and reconnected. As a deeply relational, engaging, and down-to-earth therapist, I will meet you where you are, just as you are, in an atmosphere of openness, warmth, and acceptance. You are the one true expert of yourself, and I am a well-traveled and resourced guide. Side by side, you and I will actively collaborate to traverse your personal terrain together, mindfully, with heart and humor. I will be there to challenge and support you on this path.

With a present, here-and-now focus on integrating aspects of mind, body, and heart, we will embark upon a very experiential and interactive process of Self-discovery and healing. You will learn to cultivate deeper awareness and acceptance, and build incrementally upon your innate wisdom and personal strengths. An increase in vitality, groundedness, clarity, connectedness, self-worth, acceptance, and joy is possible.

I practice using a well-informed, well-applied integrative approach to therapy that is highly experiential, body-oriented, and person-centered. I have 10+ years experience as a counselor working with adolescents and adults of various ages and multicultural backgrounds; and have earned a Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Naropa University. I celebrate and embrace diversity in both my personal and professional life.

Because positive outcome in therapy is dependent on the quality of the therapeutic relationship itself, I encourage you to choose a therapist you actually like, and with whom you feel a strong connection. I offer an initial, consultation session at no cost. This is a time for you and I to meet, and to see if we would be a good fit. I am committed to providing affordable, individual counseling, and offer a generous sliding fee scale ($60-80/hour). I also reserve a few openings at an even lower rate for those who cannot otherwise afford my services.

I hope to hear from you soon.
