Therapists for college students near Portland, OR
Being part of the interconnected natural world, we thrive in connection, and without connection, we wither. In our work together we will collaborate in understanding what makes you come alive and wither, to look for ways to get unstuck and make meaning of your emotions, reactivity, and suffering. I believe that individuals and families can tap into their inner strength to repair and grow new resilience with guidance and support. My role is to restore balance, build communication, and provide support to help you create space to learn and integrate new skills with new perspectives as they thrive in connection. I am here to create a space for you to explore, to collaborate with you to make meaning of your challenges and stories. I am a systemic and integrated therapist using various modalities to look at every aspect of a person’s life to understand their lived experiences better. I am trained to utilize EMDR to help with PTSD and other trauma-related disturbances. Being an immigrant myself, raising children, and building a place of my own as a BIPOC therapist while navigating different life stages and challenges, I am familiar with the tension that arises from differences in cultural/generational values and bicultural experiences. Ultimately, I want to support and empower you on your journey to be you. Additionally, I have 20 years of experience as a teacher of K-12 & College-age students to draw on to help me in our collaboration. Contact me, now!
Welcome! I specialize in working with adult women aged 18+. I love working with college students. I offer both telehealth and in-person appointments in my office in Lake Oswego. Please check out my website for more information!
The clients I work best with are ready to take an attitude of curiosity and reflection towards the patterns and beliefs that no longer serve them. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, adjustment difficulties, or relationship stress and are hoping to relate to emotions in a healthier way or gain new self-perspective. Whether it is your first time in therapy or are returning to address matters from a new light, I believe in the innate wisdom of each person and approach our work humbly.
Today you are one step closer to a new you, where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. I offer brief and long-term psychotherapy to adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I have extensive experience forming successful therapeutic relations with individuals, couples and families from varied ethnic, cultural, national, socio-economic, religious, spiritual, and sexual/gender identity groups. I utilize a collaborative approach to therapy to help my clients gain insight, self-awareness, and the tools necessary to attain mind and body health and wellness. My personal style is warm, caring, and understanding, yet interactive and direct. I help clients examine links between their current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and how they impact their view of themselves and their experiences in relationships. If you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you are just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
As an art therapist and counselor, I utilize the process and product of art making to support individuals in discovering insight, moving toward growth, and finding balance. Art therapy can offer an alternative means of communication to express difficult emotions or experiences that may feel impossible to put into words. You do not have to identify as an artist to find healing through art therapy. Art making is always optional and no artistic skills or previous experience is needed. If you would like to learn more about what therapy might look like or how I can support you, please feel free to contact me.

CHERIISH Counseling LLC is a mental health counseling program located in Gresham and Troutdale, Oregon. We provide traditional therapy services in-person or virtually. We also offer equine-assisted therapy. Our practice focuses on serving LGBTQIA+ clients. We are here to help you discover yourself, access your self-compassion, develop healthy relationships, and build skills for a more peaceful and grounded life.
Our lived experiences shape the world around us and how we interact with it. Therefore, I believe understanding someone’s story is instrumental in any therapeutic process. Therapy is meant to help someone heal, build skills, break out of patterns, and gain further insights into oneself. It’s an investment in yourself so that you can have a future not burdened in anguish. As someone who identifies as multiracial, I have firsthand knowledge about the intersectionality of race and culture. I honor each person in front of me and foster a space that is safe where healing can take place. I use a strengths-based approach and pull from different evidence-based modalities such as DBT, CBT, and CPS. Treatment is individualized for the person, not to fit in a box. I have several years working as a clinician within a variety of health care settings with the most recent being with adolescents and adults in acute care settings. In addition, I have experience working with first responders and healthcare professionals.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist dedicated to improving my patients' well-being through personalized treatment plans. I completed both medical school and residency training at Oregon Health & Science University. When meeting with my patients, I adopt a holistic approach, considering the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence their mental health. My strategy integrates therapy and medications, as needed, to address issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and relational challenges. My goal is to help you better understand your experiences and develop lifelong skills to achieve your personal goals long after our collaboration ends. Initially, I follow a consultative model where I spend 2 to 3 visits getting to know you. Then, through collaboration, we develop an appointment schedule that works to meet your needs. I typically conduct weekly therapy sessions to provide ongoing support and care for patients aged 18 and older. For referrals please fill out the form on my website.

Reaching out for therapy can be intimidating. Especially if you haven't attended before. I've walked the path of reaching out, showing up, sitting in the chair.... Let me tell you, it's worth. If you are struggling and need someone to hold space for you to process whatever it is that feels heavy, please reach out. I am a down-to-earth counselor who wants to work with you collaboratively and at your pace, to learn about yourself. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation to answer questions and see if we are a good fit.
