Russell Chamberlain CADCIII
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Sharing your intimate details with a stranger is, well, weird. Don't feel like sitting in an office, avoiding eye contact, with the therapist, answering questions? In two separate practices I provide office and park based experiential activities and Equine assisted psychotherapy for ages 12 and up.

My Approach
Learning to feel "safe" opens us to experience connection and learning. I'm part of a group, insurance reimbursed practice, Energy Matters (https://energymatterspdx.com). I have a separate, private pay only Equine focused practice LifeSTREAM Therapy LLC (https://lifestreamtherapy.net). Whether in the office, park or with horses I use experiential activities that are engaging and even fun. With Energy Matters I'm in network with Kaiser and Optum and in process with AETNA, MODA and Pacific Source. Mindfulness, drumming and Collaborative Problem Solving approaches are used as well in healing through co-regulation. I use a heart rate biofeedback tool called the HeartMath emWave2. We work together to create and strengthen new neural pathways. As individuals, partners, co-parents or families we all benefit from knowing a felt sense of safety and experiencing relationship.
My Background
Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor III. I have 30 years experience working with youth, families and adults in settings from the wilderness, offices, classrooms and now the arena and paddock. I have extensive training in trauma informed approaches. EAGALA certification in Equine assisted psychotherapy and training in Trauma Focused EAP with Natural Lifemanship. I'm also tier two trained in collaborative problem solving. Experiential approaches have always been my preferred method.
