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.

Hello, my name is Lowell Wallace and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work in 2013 and went on to earn my LCSW in 2017. I have expertise in working with individuals and families with co-occurring substance abuse and other counseling issues. I also have expertise in providing counseling to individuals with mood and anxiety disorders, relationship issues, family conflict, trauma, ADHD, and much more. I utilize a client-centered approach and realize clients are the experts on their own lives. I work collaboratively with my clients in setting and reaching their goals that will ultimately benefit their lives. Some of my most used clinical approaches are cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I enjoy these approaches because it allows me to help my clients gain insight into their core beliefs and how these translate into their thoughts and ultimately their behavior. I believe everyone has inherent strengths and abilities to face and overcome adversity and become more empowered and all they need is some assistance to realize their solution lies within themselves. I truly enjoy working with others and assisting them in becoming better version of themselves.

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.

Thank you very much for checking here: I hope to be of service to you. My 17+ years of experience includes many years of counseling and listening, across various cultures, ages and personal client needs, with a few years as adjunct professor at Louisiana State University, Shreveport, LA: 3 years of work as a patient counselor in a hospital psychiatric unit, and 3 years of practice in a pediatric clinic. My current solo practice is empathetic, accepting and non-judgmental, having also practiced as an EAP (employee counselor) in a very large hospital and city system, in which I was required to see anyone for any situation or issue they may bring to counseling. This unique opportunity provided me with insights and understanding of people beyond my own personal scope of experience. I believe this has made me more sensitive to the needs, hurts and stress of the various clients I serve. I am generally available 6 days a week for appointments, because I really do enjoy my practice and my clients. I am licensed in Louisiana, Oregon and Florida and serve clients in those states, as well as in overseas countries. I am old enough to enjoy my 6 children, 14 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchild, together with my wife in a delightful sharing relationship. This creates a relaxed, accepting and strong relationship and family foundation for your counseling needs. My personal strengths hopefully convey to you a caring and positive mindset as we work together. (p.s. In fairness to potential Oregon clients, I want to let you know that I am in the Eastern Time Zone, and regretfully, I can only be available to West Coast clients from 6:00/ am until 1:00 pm :( If this is not workable hours for you, you may wish to find another therapist who may have better hours for your schedule. I felt it was only fair to let you know this in advance.) Also..I can open more hours than what shows on the schedule, so if you need a day/time that is not shown, please message me. Hope to hear from you soon!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and spent 6 years as a nature-based therapist at a 70-acre farm in Canby, OR, utilizing the healing aspects of nature and engaging in such deeply-rooted human endeavors as forest archery, shelter and fire building, guided mushroom foraging, nature art, and specialized ceremonies and rituals. I have spent the last 4 years conducting therapy in my private practice. I specialize in life coaching, spiritual development, personal growth, getting unstuck, trauma, life transitions, career success, self-esteem and self-image, men’s issues, and rites of passage. I am also looking to form men's groups and retreats, so I am very interested in men's work/men's issues (mythopoetic men's movement). One of my most passionate interests and endeavors is utilizing a unique balance of humor, creativity, performance art, and psychological-cultural science and observation for motivational staff retreats. I received a Master’s in Counseling and a Master’s in Education, as well as a PhD in health psychology with a focus on effective coping mechanisms for daily and life stressors and alternative healing modalities. My doctoral research focused on the intersection of ethnopharmacology and psychology—specifically the healing potential of ayahuasca, an Amazonian plant medicine (entheogen), used by shamans for thousands of years to cure a voluminous array of human physical and psychological maladies. Over the last decade, I have combined my nature-based, psychedelic, and clinical experience toward a focus on optimal living and radical flexibility and achievement, employing neuro-cognitive restoration and peak performance components, which includes such concepts as flow states, “bullet-proof mind” modalities, authenticity, psychitecture (reprogramming negative feedback loops), dream work, and behavioral health support (nutrition, movement, etc.). I have also researched the remarkable properties and potential of psilocybin mushrooms for not only PTSD, anxiety, and depression, but also for helping to re-wire the brain, and changing our maladaptive “programming,” which contributes to negative behavioral and thinking patterns. Therefore, I assist clients in preparation and integration following this work that they do on their own. I have worked alongside physicians and nurses as a behavioral health consultant, utilizing a blend of motivational interviewing, nutritional education, and a variety of alternative healing modalities (breathwork, Eastern movement forms, Earthing, etc.). I have also been actively involved in professional cultural anthropology associations and consciousness groups and has given talks at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, OR, the Happiness Institute and California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, and the Anthropology of Consciousness on such topics as consciousness expansion, shamanism, Jungian archetypes, and the healing potential of entheogenic compounds. I have also spent nearly a decade in the business world as a consultant, corporate trainer, and business leader and have a great deal of experience in motivation, success training, and life coaching, which I blend with my clinical research and experience. I have an eclectic approach to counseling individuals that includes Impact Therapy, mindfulness techniques, dream journaling and interpretation, eco-therapeutic techniques, Somatic Therapy, cognitive-behavioral approaches, Neuro Linguistic Programming, Psycho-Cybernetics, Existential Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Narrative techniques.

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.
