I create a laid-back, relaxed approach so that clients are comfortable and can be themselves in a trusting, confidential, and professional environment.

As a mom of five incredible kids who has survived complex posttraumatic stress (CPTSD), huge family losses, postpartum depression and anxiety, and chronic illness, I have taken an empowering path toward owning my story, building confidence, and purpose. My children show me the benefits of that in who they are, every day. It's not perfect, but it doesn't need to be. My extensive professional training and experience supporting parents, children, couples, and families for the past 23 years has prepared me to meet you where you are, keeping short- and long-term best possible outcomes in mind for your whole family's emotional well-being. You deserve to cultivate healthy relationships and not lose yourself in the process. And how you learn to support yourself better could make all the difference. Culturally Sensitive, Inclusive Care, and Raising Allies We have to level up our village to raise children in a time when hate and division are challenging our peace and freedom, quite literally. In group and private sessions, I aim to provide affirming support for a broad spectrum of individuals, couples, and families. This includes neurodivergent people, people with attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), autistic people, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), multiracial, multiethnic, interfaith, LGBT, and others who face challenges related to their identity. I love supporting parents who want to raise allies and changemakers who aren't threatened by differences.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC)

I have been working in the helping field related to counseling for almost 20 years. In that time I have learned that the best way to help others is to be an excellent listener, to be compassionate, empathetic, and to collaborate with individuals to assist them in gaining the tools that they need to make positive change in their lives. I work hard to encourage clients that the strength for change lies within them and my job is to help them find it. I utilize a great deal of mindfulness based techniques and believe that learning the process of becoming more mindful in life can be extremely beneficial to problem solving and learning to sit with discomfort. As a counselor I do not believe that I have all of the answers or can fix anyone, however, I do believe that if the client is willing to do the work to create change in their life that I can assist them in doing so successfully. Ultimately, my goal for the counseling relationship is to assist clients in managing stress more effectively and learning skills that can be used well after the counseling relationship has terminated, in a straightforward and honest approach.

Greetings! My name is Lenda. I am a bilingual counselor. I have been a counselor for eight years. I chose this career because I personally know someone who struggled with mental health challenges. It is gratifying to see my clients make progress and build a better life through our work together. I have experience working with individuals who struggle with depression and anxiety symptoms on a daily basis. I have also worked with people who have experienced sexual abuse and other crimes. I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills in sessions. I continue taking trainings to better support my clients.

Accepting new clients remotely and in person. I've practiced psychotherapy for over 40 years, and during most of that time also taught psychiatric residents at Johns Hopkins Medical School. My areas of specialization are bipolar type 2 and borderline personality condition. I've also worked with many entrepreneurs since the publication of my book, The Hypomanic Edge: The Link Between (a Little) Craziness and (a Lot of) Success in America. What's different about me is that after receiving traditional training, I've integrated it with meditation. Mindfulness, especially when combined with therapy, provides calm, objective self-awareness that leads to self-control, which may lessen the need for medication. More meditation can mean less medication. More recently, I'm working with research subjects who have undergone psilocybin therapy for a book, "The Cosmic Consciousness Cure." Affecting the same brain areas as meditation, psilocybin therapy produces a quantum leap in mindfulness. I'd be happy to speak with anyone seeking legal psilocybin treatment. I can't provide it, but it is now legally available in Oregon, and I would be happy to work with clients on integrating that experience.

I understand that seeking therapy can be daunting, and view therapy as a holistic process, striving to provide a warm, empathic, and accepting atmosphere, to support clients who are committed to making lasting change. I am Licensed Professional Counselor, and have extensive clinical experience working with individuals and couples struggling with relationship issues, trauma, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, low self-esteem, grief and loss, and questions of identity. I am passionate about helping couples and individuals grow and thrive, improving communication, working through trauma, and identifying and achieving goals. I received my Master of Clinical Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology in 2011, and since then have undergone continued training specializing in trauma-informed approaches. I am a Gottman Method Level 1 trained therapist. I operate from a trauma-informed perspective recognizing that many people have had or currently experience trauma. I understand the need for emotional safety and trustworthiness in a therapist and work with clients to regain a sense of empowerment in their lives. My style is eclectic, but my work is trauma informed, using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients stop fighting against the pain of their past, and build rich and meaningful lives. For couples work, I pull strongly from the Gottman Method. I strongly believe that every person holds the capacity for growth, and can benefit from a trusting and supportive therapist to help them acknowledge and ignite that ability within themselves. I consider the client as the expert in their life and trust that a positive client and therapist relationship is key to facilitating change. Through a safe and professional relationship, the therapist can help the client deeply examine their life, and identify areas for change. Utilizing individualized treatment plans, I help clients develop goals tailored to their specific needs, and identify coping and management strategies to help clients regain a sense of control in life.

My primary goal is to make anyone I work with feel safe as they explore vulnerable parts of their lives and past experiences. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship, one rooted in trust and a lack of judgment, allows for lasting and empowering change. If you are experiencing difficulty coping with life stressors or transitions, or are curious about exploring your past and its impact on your life today, I'd love to connect for a consultation. I might also be a good fit for you if you are looking for parent coaching as well as support with attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD) management. Thanks, and I look forward to speaking with you!
