Whether you’re coping with the effects of mental health disorders or overcoming other challenges, consider getting support from a mental health professional online. Finding in-person treatment can be challenging due to transportation issues or a lack of available providers. With a platform like BetterHelp, access to mental health care can be more convenient and flexible.

With BetterHelp, you can work with counseling psychologists, marriage and family therapists, and other professionals from the comfort of your home at a time that works for you. This flexibility can make treatment more accessible for anyone with a busy schedule like a college student pursuing a doctoral degree or a busy working parent trying to avoid burnout. 

BetterHelp does not have medical doctors or nurse practitioners at this time, so providers cannot prescribe medication, but the clinical psychologists and other licensed mental health professionals on the platform have at least a master's degree and extensive experience with clinical psychology. 

Whether you need help coping with the symptoms of a mental illness or want to understand human behavior better, therapy can help. If you’re looking for an online therapist, OR has many options available. The counselors and therapists listed below are licensed to provide online therapy across the Beaver State.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LCPC) in Idaho, as well as Nationally Certified Counselor, and I also hold the Graduate Certificate in Addiction Studies. I have been a counselor for 12 years in different settings, such as community agencies of different kind, as well as my own practice. Prior to becoming a counselor, I was an adult educator and worked for colleges and business schools. As an educator, I was passionate about motivating each student to find an individual “life’s path” and to use education as a tool. As a counselor, I am passionate about my clients learning about themselves through the discovery of individual strengths and unique abilities to take on the life’s journey. In each session, I strive to encourage my clients to find something about themselves they haven’t noticed before. Depending on my clients’ needs, I use many techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused and many others, but educate on these techniques in the process to help my clients “become their own counselors” and build their own “arsenal” of tools. My counseling style is fluid – I meet my clients “where they are”; at the same time, I have been told by my clients that each session with me gave them different perspective and empowered them to approach life’s problems with unexpected solutions! I am looking forward to meeting and getting to know you!

Hello, and welcome to my virtual office! I would first like to acknowledge your strength and courage in taking this step toward making your mental health and wellness a priority. To tell you a bit about my background, I am a licensed therapist in FL, MA, OR, and WA with over 10 years experience working with a variety of populations as I have strived to assist clients on their journey toward hope, growth, and healing. I am also well-versed in providing teletherapy services,. I would describe my style as laid back and conversational in nature. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, in which the therapeutic alliance sets the foundation for successful outcomes. As an integrated therapist, I reject a “one size fits all” approach. I draw from various modalities as necessitated by the presenting issue, and believe that techniques should be tailored to individualized needs. I seek to minimize “labeling,” and strive to make a genuine human connection with clients as they share their unique worldview and experiences. Ultimately, I believe it is the client who is the expert of his or her own life. It is my goal to provide an empathetic space where clients feel safe and empowered to be their authentic selves and live in their truth. I look forward to working with you, and believe that together, we can foster positive change in your life.

As a therapist and social psychologist who works primarily with the LGBQT+ community and individuals in non-traditional marriages/relationships, I approach my work with a deep commitment to non-judgment and openness, creating a space where you can freely discuss anything holding you back from living your best life. My therapeutic approach is a blend of Reality Therapy, Carl Rogers' person-centered counseling, Adlerian Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), allowing me to tailor my methods to meet the diverse needs of my clients. I take Virginia Satir's wisdom to heart: "The most basic human need is the need to understand and be understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them." This philosophy guides my practice, ensuring I listen with empathy and genuine understanding. By doing so, I strive to offer support that is not only effective but also deeply compassionate. My LGBTQ novel, LOUD MESSY PERFECT was released this summer. Specialties Life Transition Erik Erikson’s stages of psychosocial development describe how people grow and change throughout their lives. Each stage involves a challenge or conflict that must be resolved to develop a healthy personality. For example, babies learn to trust or mistrust their caregivers in infancy while they explore their identity in adolescence. As people age, they face other challenges, like establishing meaningful relationships and reflecting on their lives. Successfully managing these challenges leads to accomplishment and well-being, while failure can result in difficulties later. LGBTQ+ Vivienne Cass' Gay Identity Module is a framework designed to help understand individuals' stages in recognizing and accepting their sexual orientation. It outlines a process that starts with a person becoming aware of their same-sex attraction and struggling with it, then moving through a phase of accepting and integrating their identity, and finally reaching a stage of positive self-identity and pride in their sexuality. The model emphasizes that this journey is unique for each person and can involve various emotional and social challenges. Peer Relationships Social Identity Theory, developed by Henri Tajfel and John Turner, explains how people form their self-concept and attitudes based on their membership in social groups. According to this theory, individuals categorize themselves and others into groups, such as race, religion, or profession. This categorization influences how they perceive themselves and interact with others. People tend to favor their group, the ingroup, and view members of other groups, or outgroups, less favorably. This favoritism helps boost self-esteem and fosters a sense of belonging and identity. Social Identity Theory highlights how group membership shapes personal identity and social dynamics.

In today's fast-paced society, mental well-being has become a cornerstone of a fulfilling life. Amid the daily challenges and stressors that can overwhelm even the most resilient individuals, seeking professional guidance often offers a path to clarity and balance. The journey toward improved emotional health involves understanding personal triggers, embracing self-compassion, and developing effective coping strategies. While self-help books and online resources provide valuable information, nothing compares to the personalized support offered by a qualified mental health professional. One-on-one sessions with experienced experts can help uncover the underlying issues contributing to anxiety, depression, or other emotional hurdles. With a careful and empathetic approach, these professionals tailor their advice to suit individual needs, ensuring that each person receives strategies that work best for their unique circumstances. Whether through cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, or other innovative methods, the aim is to foster resilience and empower individuals to take control of their inner lives. For those living in bustling urban centers, engaging in face-to-face sessions in a welcoming environment can be particularly beneficial. Access to a caring clinician provides not only a safe space to explore difficult emotions but also builds a support network essential for long-term recovery. The process encourages self-reflection and greater insight into behavioral patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed. While the journey can be challenging at times, the rewards include enhanced emotional stability, improved interpersonal relationships, and a renewed sense of self-worth. In one notable case, the guidance provided by a highly trained therapist proved instrumental in navigating a tumultuous period. Through structured sessions and tailored interventions, the individual learned to identify stressors and develop healthier responses to adversity. This experience underscored the transformative impact that dedicated support can have on one's overall quality of life. In a region like Texas, community-based initiatives and accessible mental health programs further reinforce the value of professional help. These efforts emphasize early intervention, preventive care, and continuous support, ensuring that more people are equipped to face life's inevitable challenges. Ultimately, investing in mental well-being is an act of self-care that yields lifelong benefits. By embracing professional support, individuals can unlock new levels of emotional resilience and discover pathways to a brighter, more balanced future. Each step taken toward healing represents a commitment to personal growth, enabling a life filled with renewed optimism and strength. Embracing this transformative journey consistently paves the way for deeper understanding, lasting peace, and meaningful personal progress.
