John Gould, LCSW
About me
Hey there, my name is Anderson and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon and Virginia with over 10 years of diverse experience in the mental health field. My practice focuses on helping individuals and families who are struggling with anxiety, depression, communication, problem solving, and the many challenges of parenting, and who are desiring the ability to manage the challenges of their life with confidence. Our work together will use a strength-based perspective that allows both you and I to acknowledge and draw from your own unique qualities and abilities to overcome your current challenges. My clinical approach is integrative and includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Parent Child Interactive Therapy (PCIT), and Collaborative Problem Solving. I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to achieve the quality of life that satisfies them. Over the past several years I have found that my own quality of life has been greatly enhanced from spending time outdoors, following creative interests, and developing deep relationships. My goal as your Counselor will be to support you in developing the quality of life that you desire. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you in your journey.

Additional areas of focus: LGBT, Family conflicts, Grief, Anger management, Self esteem

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for John Gould. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
He was very helpful. Finally got to a place where I am happy and well equipped to handle any depression or destructiveness.
