My Ideal Client

Traumatic experiences and stressful events are greatly impactful and can present as symptoms that are distressing and disruptive. Birchwood Counseling offers treatments that have been researched and proven to help reduce these unwanted symptoms. We engage all clients in a collaborative assessment to better understand the current treatment needs and will make a treatment plan together that is most likely to be helpful. It is important to us to get to know you as a whole person.

My Approach to Helping

Birchwood Counseling is a woman-owned practice with compassionate, experienced therapists licensed to support clients across Oregon and Washington. We focus on goal-oriented, proven trauma and mental health care that helps you heal and thrive. Our clients see significant progress—over 80% experience major symptom reduction through evidence-based treatments like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and EMDR. We also proudly partner with the Returning Veterans Project and offer community education workshops. Our team specializes in trauma recovery, anxiety, OCD, and relationship support. Whether you're looking for specialized therapies (like EMDR, CPT, ERP, or EFT) or tailored support for sleep, chronic pain, ADHD, or life transitions, we offer welcoming, personalized care—with dedicated expertise for veterans, first responders, healthcare workers, and neurodivergent individuals.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

We believe that every individual possesses an inherent capacity for healing and growth when provided with a safe, inclusive, and empathetic environment. Our approach is rooted in dignity, radical acceptance, cultural humility, and trauma-informed care. We affirm and welcome clients of all identities, backgrounds, and life experiences. At Birchwood Counseling, our commitment to healing extends beyond individual therapy sessions. We actively support community mental health initiatives, advocate for accessible care, and partner with local organizations dedicated to supporting trauma survivors, first responders, and underserved populations.

    CPT is a treatment for trauma disorders and anxiety related to traumatic events. CPT is a modern trauma treatment that evolved out of decades of research on CBT. CPT is a 15-18 week structured treatment approach that helps clarify the connection between our traumatic experiences, our views of ourselves, our views of others, and our active symptoms.
