I specialize in working with queer, TGNB, and BIPOC adults and can write letters of support for gender-affirming medical care. I have experience with a range of challenges including depression, anxiety, gender identity, polyamory/relationship concerns, and healing from trauma, but the most common issue among my clients is struggling to have a sense of belonging due to intersecting identities. I collaborate with clients to explore the parts of themself that have been disowned, the parts that dese...
I believe in the unique resilience of each individual and tailor my treatment through a collaborative process with each person I work with. I offer a warm, non-judgmental and supportive space where we can develop a trusting relationship to allow you to explore yourself in the context of your world. Drawing from numerous treatment modalities and utilizing a trauma-informed lens, we can work together to help you meet your therapy goals. My favorite patient group is college students. I have worked...
Living in a world filled with poverty, marginalization, oppression, and pandemic(s) can feel daunting and lead people to feel as though they have little agency. Therapy can be a helpful place to explore the places in our lives where we do have agency, where we are able to make tangible changes-often times this is in our interpersonal relationships. I work from an attachment focused and relational cultural perspective that is grounded in feminist practice which prioritizes the exploration of id...
My practice is guided by the belief that every person strives to do the best they can. The individual or family system may need assistance in developing necessary skills and guidance in solving problems. Working collaboratively with clients I help them to narrate new ways of interacting with their environment. I work with several young adults / young professionals as they navigate major life transitions (college, grad school, careers, families and parenting) and the accompanying challenges (ie:...

Do you feel overwhelmed by that pile of laundry in the corner of your room, or that stack of dishes in the kitchen? Do you bounce your leg endlessly or fidget with anything within reach? Do you ever hyperfixate on something for hours and completely lose track of time? Are you easily distracted? Forgetful? Do you find yourself interrupting others? Are you motivated by challenge? What about urgency? If so, not to fret, you’re in the right place! I too have struggled with these same issues, but...
If you’re carrying a lot and could use a place to breathe, I’d be honored to sit with you. I’m a student therapist currently completing my graduate program at George Fox University—and I truly love the work I get to do. Before stepping into the role of therapist, I worked to connect service members, veterans, and their families with the care and support they needed. That experience didn’t just shape my professional path—it deepened my respect and compassion for the unique challenges faced by ...

Note: In-person sessions only at this time, sorry... College life can be difficult at times, even more so lately. You have what it takes to get through it and I am here to help you recognize and develop the strength and capability you already have.

We bring different specialties to our work that can help you process trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and offer the support you need in a way that helps you move toward living the life you want....
Student life involves transitions, both micro and macro. At what other time in our lives do we revise schedules on a quarterly basis? Acclimating to a new schedule and pace, while continuing to attend to family, friends, and work is daunting. And somewhere in the midst of those demands, is a continued need to care for yourself. People often work with me when they are questioning their relationships with important people in their lives, as well as when they are learning more about the relatio...
I have experience working with young adults for the past 12 years in both education and therapy settings. I provide mental health and substance use counseling with the goal of helping you better understand yourself, what you need, and how to make that possible....
Hi, I’m Katharine Frissora, a doctorally prepared integrative psychiatric nurse practitioner. I blend traditional psychiatric care with holistic approaches to support mental health in a more whole-person way. I also have a background in art therapy, which shapes how I think about creativity, self-expression, and their role in healing. I work best with people who want to be active participants in their mental health care and are curious about looking beyond symptoms alone. Whether you’re going...
Accepting new clients! I offer relational, affirming, & approachable therapy for teens and young adults (14-24ish) that helps navigate the often turbulent times of adolescence & emerging adulthood.

As a therapist, my goal is to create a warm, open, and non-judgmental space where you can feel more understood, connected, and supported. ...

This time of life can be overwhelming, so full of change and new that sometimes it feels like too much. It can be confusing trying to figure out who you are, what you believe, how to be in relationships with others and even with yourself! Developing autonomy is exciting and it can also be scary to have to “adult” so much. You are taking responsibility for yourself, but probably still feel like you are ‘not quite’ an adult. I love to help people navigate this in-between time....

I love working with college students as it is such a formative time as a young adult. College can be challenging as you navigate your way along the path while figuring out your direction in life. I work best with those who are not afraid to do the work that comes along with being in therapy. You get out of it what you put into it, basically. It is important for me that my clients feel comfortable and that they can be themselves around me. I like to check in with my clients on occasion to mak...
