Hello, my name is Tiffany Thomas. I'm passionate about helping those who are hurting, feel unheard, and unseen. I am a CSWA in Oregon and a certified drug and alcohol counselor (CADC1).

I have a Master of Social Work Degree and have been practicing in the field for 6+ years. I work primarily with individual adults, ages 18-70, and occasionally work with couples.

My primary specialties are trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and Christian counseling. I like to use a humanistic approach, being mindful, as I work with people who have struggled with anxiety, depression, abuse, attachment issues, behavioral issues, phobias, family trauma, church trauma, stress management, relationships, co-dependency, women’s issues, and self esteem. I provide psycho-education, new strategies, and a new perspective.

I am trained or have experience working with CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Addiction, Grief, and Trauma. Let's build a relationship that feels safe, where you can learn new skills, a new understanding, and gain hope. I look forward to walking on a journey with you towards healing and freedom.

I have over 10 years experience working in residential and community settings providing services to youth and their families. I draw from many modalities and adjust based on my client’s needs.

I received my Masters degree in Clinical Counseling from George Fox University in 2013. This new career path came after I had been a foster parent for several years. I have much experience with youth in foster care and their caregivers. I am certified Post Adoption and FosterCare therapist with ORPARC which has given me a strong foundation when working with this population. I also really enjoy working towards reunification goals both with the biological family and the youth as they navigate emotions especially after a long periods in care.

For younger children, I believe their language is play so will often incorporate play therapy techniques in sessions. Parent participation is strongly recommended as young people often struggle with big emotions and don’t know how to express themselves. The best way for me to teach them and incorporate better coping strategies is for them to practice at home as well.

For tweens, teens and young adults I believe developing their voice and autonomy is very important. We will navigate treatment planning and therapy goals collaboratively with parental involvement as necessary. I rely strongly on Dialectical Behavioral Therapy(DBT) for this age believing the positive effects in learning distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, emotional regulation, and mindfulness skills will benefit everyone. DBT is especially effective when treating youth experiencing suicidal ideations or self harm.

I will work with any diagnosis including but not limited to Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, ADHD, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I am accepting of all cultures, sexual and gender orientations. I look forward to getting to know you and help you be your best self!

Hi, I'm Shalman, and I help people find in themselves the strength and skills to reclaim their lives. Typically, I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness-based methods in my practice, but I will incorporate aspects of Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Intersectional theory (including gender-specific lenses) and evolutionary psychology if appropriate.

My education includes Addiction Counseling, Psychology and Clinical Mental Health Counseling from colleges in Portland. Over the past 19 years, I have received specialized training in medication-assisted addiction treatment, working with parents involved with the child welfare system, behaviorism, criminality, interpersonal neurobiology, ex-prison re-entry, Men's issues, and anxiety disorders.

Perhaps you are skeptical of therapy, for which there are some valid reasons, but the research shows that the biggest factor in someone feeling like therapy is helpful, is the relationship you build with your therapist. Give it a shot, and if we aren't a good match, I'll help you find someone who is.

Outside of my work: I am into music, camping, old movies and cooking.

Hello! My name is Christina and I’m a Professional Counselor Associate working towards independent licensure in Oregon and Washington.

It takes immense courage to confront your own story. My practice is about helping you gain clarity, break old cycles, and leave therapy feeling more empowered and whole, with a deeper sense of peace within yourself. I utilize a client-centered, strengths-based, holistic approach to treatment. I work with each client to develop mutually desirable yet personally meaningful goals for treatment and use an integrative approach of psychodynamic, family systems, narrative-focused, and cognitive behavioral techniques to achieve those goals. I strive to live what I practice. I’ll ask you to work hard in therapy and behind the scenes, I’m working hard on myself, too. To be good therapists we need to confront our own stories, and I’m committed to both my growth and yours.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in child and family studies from Portland State University. I hold a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in marriage and family therapy from Pepperdine University. My professional experience includes working with survivors of domestic violence, adolescents and young adults in the juvenile justice system, and management of acute mental health crises. I can work with you individually to address a range of challenges including trauma, PTSD, anxiety, eating disorders and disordered eating patterns.

It’s important to find the right fit so that you feel safe and fully supported in this vulnerable work. If you think that we would be a good fit, I would be honored to walk this path beside you, and I look forward to meeting you!

My name is Taylor Smith (she/her) and I entered clinical social work because I believe in the power of relationship as a vehicle for growth and healing, and because I also believe it’s important to recognize the systems of power, control, and culture that impact our well being. I strive to be BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ allied and affirming. I value helping individuals find peace and joy in their identity.

Modalities I pull from include: Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). Teachers who guide me in this work include Tara Brach, Pixie Lighthorse, Nedra Glover Tawwab, Gabor Mate and my own therapist/healing work. An overarching goal I have for clients I work with is for them to build tolerance for the whole spectrum of emotions and learn to experience them as neutral information, or even as wisdom that leads to informed choice.

Experiences that led me down the path of clinical social work include several years of social justice work in Oregon prisons during my undergraduate studies at the University of Oregon and seven years of advocacy and peer counseling for survivors of gender-based violence. I completed my Master of Social Work (MSW) at Portland State University in 2022 and am currently a Certified Social Work Associate (CSWA) under supervision and working towards licensure. For the past year and a half I worked as a behavioral health consultant in a primary care setting addressing whole person health: mental, emotional, physical and day to day functional well being. I look forward to pulling this wider scope into practice here at Stronger Oregon.

Common labels we put on experiences that might be a good fit for my expertise include: anxiety, stress, trauma, abuse, gender affirming care, grief, attachment wounding, codependency, family members of people with addiction, boundary setting work, and life change/transitions. This is a non-exhaustive list and if my approach seems like a good fit for you, I encourage you to reach out!

I’ve been in the profession since 2007 and have almost 10 years of Post-Graduate Clinical Counseling experience. Jumping on “the wave of the future,” I have been providing Telehealth Counseling services for over a year now.  I have practical experience serving both self-referred clients as well as those involved in the Criminal Justice System.  I have successfully helped persons with varying clinical issues including; Anxiety, Depression, Relationship problems, Men’s issues, Faith-based struggles and most Mental Health disorders. I specialize in PTSD, Domestic Violence Interventions and Addictions Counseling. I am a Trauma Informed Counselor who is also registered with "Star Behavioral Health Providers" trained and experienced working with Military Veterans. I love what I do and do what I love!

I approach counseling from a combined Existential and Narrative therapies theoretical perspective. Existential and Narrative therapies are holistic approaches that explore persons’ stories and experiences in relation to the physical, social, personal, and spiritual dimensions of struggles from the client’s perspective. These theories strive to understand what it means to be human. The therapeutic relationship is one in which the therapist and client co- journey together examining the client’s difficulties that may possibly have origins in four universal questions; Who am I?, Where am I going and why?, Why am I here?, and What gives my life purpose and meaning? Exploring these questions in relation to your present circumstances may stimulate growth and promote healing and help you write a new and preferred story for your life.

I am educated and trained in many evidenced-based practices and borrow techniques from other theoretical disciplines to meet your individual needs when appropriate.  I’ll work to help you develop a stronger sense of self-awareness and self-determination. As we journey together towards your realization of freedom and responsibility, you choose a new course that may lead to a better sense of well-being. My desire is to help you find hope and realize a purposeful and meaningful life.

I am an Oregon Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and an Oregon Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor 1 (CADCI). I am held accountable to the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists (OBLPCT) and The Mental Health & Addiction Certification Board of Oregon (MHACBO). To maintain my LPC and CADCI I am required to participate in continuing education relevant to these professions. I earned my Masters of Arts degree in Professional Counseling at George Fox University (GFU) after previously earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social & Behavioral Sciences at Linfield College. In compliance with the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists (OBLPCT) and the Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 833-025-0005, I have completed the educational requirements for Professional Counseling at GFU. I have also completed education for CADCI core competencies at GFU and Daystar Education, Inc.

I’d be honored to serve you and am excited to meet you!

Mabuhay! (Welcome),

I commend you for taking the courageous step of seeking support and assistance to address your mental health and overall well-being. Opening up about your daily struggles requires tremendous vulnerability, and I want you to know that you are in a safe space. My goal is to meet you where you are on your journey towards wellness and provide the necessary support.

My name is Levin Manabat, and I am a BIPOC, Trauma-Focused Clinical Social Work Associate (CSWA), currently pursuing certification as a Sex Therapist with AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists). I hold a Masters Degree in Social Work (MSW) with a specialization in clinical social work and Trauma Practice Specialization from Widener University. Additionally, I have a Bachelors Degree in Social Work (BSW), equipping me with knowledge in generalist social work practices such as case management, referral and resources, and advocacy. My credentials include a Clinical Social Work Associate (CSWA) license, Certified Financial Social Worker (CFSW), Clinical Military Counselor Certification (CMCC), and Certified Trauma Practitioner (CTP).

In my therapeutic approach, I utilize a trauma-focused lens, decolonizing social work practices, and a trauma-informed Motivational Interviewing (MI). I also employ a Strengths-Based perspective, recognizing and building upon your existing strengths. Some of the interventions I incorporate in my practice include various Somatic Techniques for grounding, as well as evidence-based treatment modalities from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (TF-ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), and more.

In my sex therapy practice, we will explore and address a range of issues such as; communication in couples, fostering closeness, building playfulness, desire and arousal, gender and sexual diversity, sexual dysfunction, monogamy, polygamous relationships, sexual anxiety, mismatched desire, out-of-control sexual behavior, kink & BDSM, and many other areas of concern and interest.

Additionally, in my work as a financial social worker, we can delve into issues surrounding financial anxiety, impulsive spending, exploring triggers related to spending, developing a healthier relationship with money, and various other financial concerns.

Allow me to share a bit about myself. I identify as Filipino, and my personal life journey has provided me with a wealth of knowledge, skills, and experiences that may resonate with or differ from your own. As a former youth in the foster care system, a member of the LGBTQ+ and HIV/AIDS community, and an immigrant belonging to a minority group, I possess a deeper understanding of issues such as systemic racism, social stigma, discrimination, marginalization, and oppressive practices.

As part of my own self-care plan, I actively engage in mindfulness skills, meditation, and routinely head to the gym. During my free time, I find joy in traveling and camping with my significant other and our three dogs, exploring various national and state parks.

Please know that I am here to support you, and together we will work towards your goals and overall well-being.
