Therapists for college students near 97203

My approach is warm, grounded, and deeply trauma-informed. I integrate EMDR with somatic and evidence-based talk therapies to support improved daily functioning and deeper, lasting healing. I specialize in working with medical trauma, chronic pain, women’s health, and grief. I also support clients navigating complex trauma, anxiety, depression, caregiver stress, and changes across the lifespan. I care deeply about creating a space where clients feel safe, respected, and truly understood. I believe therapy should be collaborative, meaningful and practical, and I work to find tools and approaches that genuinely support change in my client's day-to-day life.

I work in treating Anxiety, Depression and Trauma. Are you currently struggling and seeking to better understand yourself and/or work through experiences of feeling stuck? Do your thoughts, emotions, behaviors/ habits feel disappointing, overwhelming, or seem to drift from your goals? We can collaborate to understand what's most valuable to you, the ways in which you struggle, and learn what could be most effective for you in your journey forward. We may just discover the most useful tools for you on your healing path as you metabolize old pain and grow in your own unique and deeply satisfying ways. My intention is to help provide a compassionate and curious environment to allow clients to explore their experiences and further understand both their difficult challenges (such as anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, difficulty connecting, being present etc.), as well as the beautiful core intentions and aspirations within them. I really enjoy this work. Offering in-person sessions in Corvallis and some teletherapy options as well. Healing and growth...not easy, though very possible. :-) I welcome diversity regarding race, gender identity, ability, religion, sexuality and neurodiversity. If you're seeking a greater sense of peace, value-aligned living, and inner strength, feel free to send me an email or call me. I'll get back to you. The insurances I am able to work with are: Pacific Source, and MODA. Here is a link to my website: https://www.presentquestcounseling.com/ Chad Blanchard LMFT 530-588-8731

As a young adult, few things are harder than struggling alone. This time in your life can feel full of contradictions. It's exciting yet uncertain, liberating yet terrifying, carefree yet sometimes paralyzing. You crave connection. To be seen & deeply loved. But relational wounds, anxiety, or the residue of past trauma can lead to feelings of distrust, insecurity, & doubt. You yearn for more. To have healthy relationships. Improve self-esteem. You want to live with more ease, but feel stuck by your pain. Emotional wounds need nurturing, connection, & the healing power of a relationship. You're not alone. I help young adults learn to be with themselves & others without feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or scared. We slow down & notice what happens in the moment & the body as we explore emotions. My primary therapeutic approach is AEDP, which focuses on connection & attunement, undoing aloneness, accessing & processing emotions, & "loving up" strengths. I know that reaching out is hard! It's scary & unfamiliar. But together, we'll work through the difficult stuff. The emotions. The fear. We'll laugh a lot. We'll cry a bit, too. Nothing is too big! Plus, I've got a comfy couch & cozy office. Or meet me on telehealth. Either way. I challenge you to do this for yourself. You have everything within you.

Hello! I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist, licensed in both California and Oregon. I offer telehealth video sessions for young adults, and I’m passionate about supporting those who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, or a desire to build stronger self-esteem, relationships, and communication skills. I take a trauma-informed approach to therapy, creating a safe and compassionate space where we can work together to address your unique challenges. My approach integrates mindfulness-based techniques and strengths-based strategies to help you practice and build coping skills that empower you to navigate life’s ups and downs with greater resilience. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are curious and motivated for change. With a background in working with young children and utilizing expressive arts, I bring a creative and holistic perspective to my work with young adults. This allows us to explore unmet needs, deepen self-awareness, and empower you to advocate for your desires and boundaries, both in the present and moving forward. I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth, and I look forward to the opportunity to work together.

Maybe you're exhausted from carrying stress and anxiety that never seems to let up. Maybe a difficult experience from your past still shows up in ways you didn't expect — in your relationships, your sleep, or your ability to feel safe in your own body. You don't have to keep white-knuckling your way through it. Whether you're navigating the lingering effects of trauma or PTSD, anxiety that won't quiet down, or a depression that's dimmed things you used to enjoy, you deserve a space where you can slow down, be honest, and actually start to heal — not just cope. I'm Tessa Love, LCSW, and I bring a warm, trauma-informed approach grounded in CBT, DBT, and somatic (body-based) techniques. I tailor every session to you — no cookie-cutter treatment plans, just collaborative, evidence-based care that meets you where you are. Ready to feel like yourself again? I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can see if we're a good fit — no pressure, just a conversation. I see clients virtually throughout Washington and Oregon, with openings Tuesday through Friday. Call (425) 321-0337 x800 to get started.

Are you holding a lot internally? Do you appear capable and put-together on the outside yet feel overwhelmed, anxious, fearful, or disconnected inside? Many students I work with are empaths and deep feelers who often ruminate or overthink decisions, worry about letting others down, or feel pressure to always be perceived as put together and strong. Are you confused about what healthy sexuality is? Are you unsure about what consent and bodily autonomy looks like, sounds like, feels like? College can intensify everything all at once: the stress of both internal and external academic expectations, relationships, family pressure, cultural or religious identities, and big questions about the future. It is a time of navigating multiple transitions. Transitions such as figuring out who you are apart from your family, questioning beliefs you grew up with, or trying to become your own person while staying connected to the people who matter to you. Add to this trying to develop new connections, and it can feel like you have a lead role in “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” Maybe you grew up in a high-pressure environment, or took on emotional caretaker roles early, or learned to minimize your needs. Perhaps you are noticing patterns you don’t know how to change. Or now that you are away from a traumatic family of origin situation, you are having memories surface and find yourself disassociating and finding it impossible to focus on studies. So you find yourself shutting down, maybe feeling numb, perhaps feeling “too much,” or carrying stress in your body - is it showing up as tension, trouble sleeping, difficulty concentrating, heightened anxiety, or...? You may be a quiet struggler - thoughtful, self-aware, and resilient, yet exhausted. Those who struggle quietly often don’t ask for help, apologize for having needs, or carry the emotional weight for others. Or maybe you find yourself acting out in ways that are not conducive to your well-being - like risky behavior or other choices that are hurtful for you. If you’re a university student who feels stuck between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming, or if you’re looking for a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out, I see you and am honored to hold space for you. I understand we heal through connection. Authentic connection happens when we are heard and understood in relationship to others. I attempt to engage our work through compassion, curiosity, humor, perspective, honesty, and gentle challenges when appropriate. I believe in creating a space where you are able to slow down and tune into your emotions, beliefs, and responses as a way to heal, grow, and authentically relate to others.

Is your workload feeling overwhelming? Are you juggling too many things with too little time? I'm here to help! My name is Lesley (they/them). My focus is working with ADHD and anxiety. I want to help you figure out ways to make things easier, so that you can find the balance between classes, work, your social life, and whatever else you're having trouble managing on your own.

I am a UCSF-trained, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner; a seasoned diagnostician and psychiatric provider. I perform diagnostic evaluations and personalized medication management for ADHD, as well as mood and anxiety disorders. Whether you have or suspect you have ADHD, or struggle with mood or anxiety issues that warrant evaluation and treatment so they are no longer in your way, I would be honored to walk beside you and be your guide.

When people can feel safe being their most vulnerable and authentic selves, it is such a privilege to witness. I enjoy working with people from all sorts of backgrounds and experiences who are curious about themselves and willing to be open to the therapeutic process. We start by getting to know each other and ideally we move forward to identify and build upon your strengths and work in learning more about patterns that may be holding you back. We work on what we can change, what we must accept, and what we want to challenge in ourselves. We move at a pace that will suit you and I will provide feedback or listen more as you need. We work collaboratively.

Many students come to therapy feeling stressed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that hold them back. Balancing school, relationships, and life changes can feel overwhelming. Therapy provides a supportive space to pause, reflect, and explore your experiences. I work with students to navigate emotions, stress, and relationship challenges while building coping skills and self-understanding. Together, we focus on what matters most to you and make meaningful changes in a supportive, relational space. Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and I honor that courage. You’ll have a gentle, safe space to process challenges, reflect on your experiences, and build confidence as you move through school and life.

Are you caught in an unending cycle of feeling insufficient, regardless of your achievements or efforts? As you navigate various roles in your life – partner, friend, caregiver, parent/child, coworker, or manager do you constantly feel like you're falling short, despite your best efforts? Anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, and fear can be an overwhelming experience. You are “fine” and you’re waiting for that other shoe to drop. I specialize in helping adults struggling with trauma, grief, and life transitions by navigating intense emotions, finding peace, and rebuilding connections with themselves and others. As a multiracial therapist, I am deeply committed to supporting BIPOC individuals, particularly in addressing family of origin and ethnic identity/cultural concerns. I also enjoy working with military families. My approach is grounded in scientific principles, tailored to help you break free from a cycle that keeps you from the life you want. Whether stemming from past trauma, intricate learning histories, or the pressures of daily life, these challenges may make you feel like you're merely existing rather than truly living. If you're ready to move beyond survival mode and embrace a life that aligns with your true self, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

My counseling style is warm, compassionate, casual and accepting. I want you to know you are seen and heard, and I am curious about what it’s like to be you in the world. I strongly believe that you are the expert on you and that, once given a little time to breathe in a safe space, you will begin to connect to important parts of yourself that will foster healing and growth.

Anxiety, worry, and intrusive thoughts are incredibly isolating and I am passionate about joining my clients in their journey toward reclaiming their lives and conquering their fears. You don’t need to do this alone anymore! My clients are often high schoolers, college students, and/or adults that are overwhelmed by perfectionism, high expectations, anxiety, and/or OCD’s rules about how to live their lives. They may also be going through major life transitions or struggling with looming uncertainties. Finally, my clients courageously lean into discomfort and learn new skills to ride the waves of uncertainty impacting their lives. My therapeutic approach includes the following evidence-based treatments: Exposure and Response Prevention, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness strategies and Motivational Interviewing. I collaborate with my clients to determine the best approach for their individual needs and goals. If you’ve made it this far, you’ve already taken a very big step forward in your wellness journey. I encourage you to reach out to me and schedule a consultation to discuss if my approach may be a fit for what you’re looking for. Regardless, I’m wishing you all the best in your journey and am honored to have crossed your path.

The particularity of our stories matter. Even stories of harm and shame are evident of our desperate and deepest attempts to be seen in our aliveness together. Despite the sufferings and stressors that may plague our lives, I believe your inner world holds a beautiful hearth that longs to center you and call you home. By working together from a place of safety and empowerment, I am interested in exploring together what it means to heal and live a life that you find meaningful. As a Relational Psychodynamic therapist, I bring a depth of training that honors the beautiful complexities of the human spirit, as well as the belief that what arises in the therapy session is always worth our attention and curiosity. I specialize in working with trauma, grief, shame, anxiety, life transitions, relationship dynamics, and more. I strive to practice with an open mindset that is culturally sensitive and anti-oppressive. What arises in you will always be worthy of love, presence, and curiosity during our work together. I admire your openness and commitment to taking the next step. If you think we may work well together or have any questions, I would love to chat more!

ADHD. Anxiety. Performance Anxiety. Depression. Low Energy. This is what I do best! My mission is to create a safe, confidential space for those seeking clarity, focus, and optimal mental health.

I prescribe both medications and nutraceuticals as needed to help you achieve your best health. The next step? Please fill out an Interest Form at the bottom of the home page at www.clarityhealthnow.com. Let's make sure it is the right fit! Please note: I do not currently see anyone with persistent severe mental health diagnoses such as schizophrenia, bipolar 1, psychosis, recent hospitalization or severe depression with active suicidality. These conditions are best suited to local, in-person care. As a rule, we do not treat women during pregnancy or anyone with substance use disorder (including alcohol use disorder) or offer evaluations for court or legal proceedings.

I use relationship building as the foundation of my therapy practice. I believe feeling seen, held, and safe are vital components of being able to grow. My hope is to create an atmosphere where the people I meet with feel met and known which will allow us to walk together through vulnerability. With all my clients I take a Neurobiological approach, which is a fancy way to say I think a lot about nervous systems and how to regulate them. Our nervous systems need co-regulation before they can learn to self-regulate. Together we will explore what feels soothing to your particular system and build strategies from there. I pull Internal Family Systems (IFS) or parts work and Narrative Therapy techniques. My style is client centered, collaborative, affirming, and trauma informed.

If you woke up tomorrow and your life was exactly how you wanted it to be, what would be different? Maybe you’re feeling stuck and weighed down by the past, and you want to be unburdened and able to move forward with your life. Perhaps you want to manage stress better, improve relationships, or feel less depressed and worried. You may want support around uncertainty, grief, anxiety, or fear related to the world around you, with concerns related to discrimination, politics, or the future of our country and world. Whatever you are facing right now, therapy can be a powerful tool for creating meaningful and lasting change. I support clients in healing from past pain and lessening its impact on life now using EMDR and other modalities. My approach is integrative and personalized. With warmth and authenticity, I collaboratively work with clients to put the past in the past, create healthier patterns, live more fully, and move forward with greater freedom.
