In my humble opinion, shopping (yes, I used the word “shopping”) for a therapist is simply overwhelming. Totally on par with the aggravation of using a dating app: countless profiles to filter through, wondering whether to swipe right or left, Guessing at trustworthiness and level of compassion based on a photo and a few carefully crafted paragraphs. And so we swipe. And swipe. And swipe. Hoping to match with “The One”. Perhaps a rather interesting comparison, but it’s true! There’s a lot of good therapists out there and despite the fact that there’s probably a therapist for everyone, not every therapist is for you.

My approach is to be open and honest. I’m a Gen X’er: former latch key kid, Midwestern farm girl raised on hotdish, school pizza, and the Pledge of Allegiance. A biracial (Honduran/Black American) and transracial adoptee raised in a tiny, all-white, conservative community. I was always “the only one in the room” and because of that, I figured out how to assimilate by honing my listening skills and learning how to read the room. After experiencing some major life transitions that are typically experienced at midlife, I started my journey as a therapist after my nest emptied and entered graduate school at 50. Today, I’m a single, divorced mom of two awesome adult humans, an adolescent German Shepherd mix rescue pup and an elderly cat. My happy place is travelling occasionally, reading, listening to music, and relaxing in my hammock. I find joy in the simplicity of life and believe that time waits for no man and being present and in the moment is what’s most important.

To me, being a therapist comes with major responsibilities. To be chosen and trusted by strangers with their innermost thoughts, fears, and experiences is a privilege and honour that I take seriously. I especially enjoy providing support and guidance to women in the middle-to-end seasons of their lives. This stage of life can be especially challenging and lonely due to the mental and physical challenges of menopause and life transitions such as empty nest, the Gray Divorce, caring for ageing parents, questioning sexuality, deaths of spouse or parents, and really just trying to adjust to all the changes that occur during this time of life. Life can seem overwhelmingly unfair and frustrating and cause us to feel invisible. While I feel an affinity for Internal Family Systems (IFS) and mindfulness, I draw from several modalities and focus primarily on a positive, solution focused and goal oriented approach.

Navigating this journey called life can be a lonely journey. I invite any adult to reach out if they feel a connection with me in any sort of way and are interested in finding out more. Please know that I hold space especially for those who belong to the BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and sex workers communities. I see you, I hear you, and offer sanctuary, understanding, non-judgement, and curiosity in my space. Peace

I approach the therapeutic relationship as a client’s journey of self-exploration to increase their self-awareness and understanding. This approach emphasizes the client's resources for becoming self-aware and any barriers to personal growth, places the client at the center of therapy, and allows the client to determine the direction of therapy.

From my experience, clients are much more inclined to own and operate a solution if it is their own. I believe the client has the answers to their questions.

Depending on the client and the situation I use a variety of counseling techniques and theories. I use a comprehensive approach to the therapeutic alliance utilizing techniques from Solution Focused, Person Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Theory, through motivational interviewing and talk therapy. Essentially, I help the client identify their problem, their resources and motivation for change, and how they interpret and respond to how they feel and act towards situations.

I believe that all individuals have the ability to reach their greatest potential by building a therapeutic relationship built on support, empathy, unconditional positive regard, mutual respect, and acceptance for the client.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Counseling from Oregon State University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate. I uphold confidentiality and abide by the ethics, laws, and policies in regard to privacy.

My name is Michael Kurle (pronounced Curlee) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.  I am very passionate about helping, advocating, and encouraging people and this has led me to my chosen career of therapy.  I am a recent Oregon transplant, having moved from my native state of Oklahoma as I have always had this pull on me to move to the Pacific Northwest and with everything that happened with COVID we made the decision to sell our home and uproot 40+ years of our life and move.

I practice utilizing several different treatment “modalities” or methods.  My preferred method is to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT for short.  CBT is the most widely used treatment modality and has the most research proving how effective it is, especially with things such as anxiety and depression.  I also am trained in EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which is an amazing therapy tool that is gaining more and more popularity in working with trauma related issues and is being expanded to include phobias, depression, and anxiety.  Motivational Interviewing and Trauma Focused CBT are also modalities I am trained in and experienced with when those interventions best suit what someone needs.

I started my educational journey with a Bachelors degree in Developmental Psychology and proceeded to join the workforce then.  I spent almost a decade working in various aspects in the Oklahoma Department of Human Services as a social worker working with children and families and then followed my path to be a therapist and earned my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Oklahoma.  I spent nearly two decades working with children and families and in the past couple of years I have turned my focus towards adults and helping adults of all ages.

Age ranges for individual and family services are from High School through the entirety of adulthood.  Seeking help and being open to explore things in therapy requires bravery and a desire to heal, both of which you have if you are reading this.  I would be honored if you would allow me to join you as you travel towards health and happiness.

Dealing with challenges and stressors is an unavoidable part of our human experience, and it can certainly leave an unwanted impact in our life. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I aim to look at the whole person, understanding how all the aspects of our lives come together to impact our minds and bodies. Healing happens when all parts of the person are aligned and integrated.

I take a holistic, strengths-based approach to therapy, working with clients to improve distress tolerance and emotion regulation, heal their nervous system, and strengthen core beliefs and values. I am passionate about working with females; in adolescence, young adulthood, and into their 30s. My therapeutic orientation draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, and somatic-based practices. 

My goal is to provide a safe space for clients to express what is on their minds, learn beneficial coping skills, understand the mind-body connection, and build a sense of connection with themselves and others.

Marina Garcia, Professional Counselor Associate

I believe to fully understand the impact and origins of mental health concerns we must recognize that you are a complex person with multiple intersectional identities. Instead of isolating and treating symptoms of mental illness, I notice the social, political and economic context in which you live. This allows space to acknowledge how oppressive systems may be impacting your wellbeing with the intent to remove personal shame for a systemic flaw.

I aim to see my clients fully, which includes acknowledging all of their cultural characteristics. My ultimate goal is to support my clients in reducing shame, discomfort or guilt as they lean into their own self. I support my clients in moving through life transitions and identity development. As those negative feelings reduce, I strive to guide you into feeling empowered, assertive and ready to learn alternative ways of coping.

In my practice I will work alongside you to collaborate and create goals that will help you feel better. As each individual has a personalized treatment plan, I use an eclectic approach in which I pull from multiple evidence-based practices to best fit your needs.

I hold a Master’s degree in Applied Psychological Science with an emphasis on Clinical Psychology from Pacific University.

Note: I am a Registered Associate and practice under supervision. As a Registered Associate with the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists, I hold a provisional license and receive regular supervision.

Hi, my name is Mine't, which is pronounced and associated with many great French artists (Think Claude Monet). My method is like an artist taking a blank canvas to create something only their imagination sees with colors and techniques. I have a passion to help others see their own masterpiece within their life. I develop a safe place to express those things weighing on the heart that might be difficult to acknowledge and identify. I enjoy empowering others to accomplish their own greatness. I have the ability to listen, challenge when needed, and help you develop life skills to handle hard moments in life. I also value a holistic approach; encompassing all aspects of life, finding keys that will enrich your life and the lives of everyone you care about.

I have more than 10 years of experience working with individuals in a mental health counseling environment.  Most of my experience has been working with severely mentally ill individuals. I worked intensely within my bachelor level degree, helping others develop life and coping skills to handle the immense pressures of life.  I have worked with youth and adolescents within my career. I worked hard through my own personal life struggles to obtain a master’s degree through Capella University and accomplished the tasks necessary to become a licensed mental health counselor. I have started working with couples, helping them improve their communication struggles, and be a successful team against the world.

I have experience helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues and coping with grief and loss. I have also helped people struggling with depression, motivation, low self-esteem and confidence. I am LGBTQIA+ friendly and extremely accepting of all sexualities and gender choices. I also love to learn about and explore new cultures and how our own culture influences or could potentially influence us as an empowerment tool in our lives. I believe that YOU are the expert of your story and that YOU possess all of the strengths that will assist you in overcoming anything that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
