Marcy Irene Jenks
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, RN, NCC, LPC, LMHC
Throughout our lifetime, things continue to shift and change; it's inevitable. Sometimes with these changes comes feelings of confusion, fear, anger, grief, and resentment, and choice-making can be difficult. Working with a counselor can be supportive as we navigate our mental health and wellness during these everchanging times. Finding a therapist that feels 'just right' is an important piece of the counseling journey. Let's schedule a free consultation to meet one another and explore the possibility of working together. I can be a support to those navigating challenging changes related to grief, loss, low self-esteem, life transitions, anxiety, relationship issues, and trauma.

Lee Scher
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
A safe, affirming space for intuitive, highly-sensitive and neurodivergent adults healing from complex trauma --my approach is contemplative and unhurried. It supports you in coming home to yourself.
Some of us learned early that our inner weather was "too much" for our parents or family to handle- that it was safer to go quiet . . . to forget about our own feelings and focus on our caregivers. If you grew up being called "too sensitive" or "too intense" you may still carry that distrust of your own felt experience, the deep fatigue of constant masking, and the assumption that there's something wrong with you.
I'm an Autistic therapist, and much of my work is with people who were never quite accepted or met for who they are. I'm also a writer and a longtime student of Buddhism and depth psychology. I bring that sensibility--curious, and attentive to image and meaning--into my practice. The parts of you that got exiled aren't broken or shameful. My hope is that together we can create a space that invites them to emerge.

Michael Pollet
Registered Social Worker, CSWA
I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship challenges. You may feel stuck in patterns you’re ready to break free from but unsure how to start. Using the collaborative LifeMaps treatment plan, we will explore how your past has shaped your present and work to build self-awareness, uncover strengths, and foster change. My experience as a gay man raised in the South gives me a unique perspective that informs my understanding of cultural and family dynamics.

Ben Mosebach
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hey there, I'm Ben Mosebach and I'm not your typical therapist. I'm not here to offer you clichés or empty promises. What I offer is authenticity and the potential to profoundly impact your life. My approach to therapy is straightforward and down-to-earth. Theoretically I am rooted in the humanistic perspectives encompassing aspects of existentialism, gestalt and person centered therapy. But I'm not interested in wasting your time with superficial chatter or jargon-filled language. I'm here to roll up my sleeves and get to work with you, tackling whatever challenges you're facing head-on.

OneYou Psychology
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What makes our practice different is the combination of deep understanding and practical support. We help clients feel seen while also building the skills and structure needed to create real change. For parents, that means guidance you can actually use at home. For teens and adults, it means less overwhelm and more confidence in how to move forward.

Brian Jones
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MEd, LMHC, LPC
Do you experience a lot of shame, anxiety, or trust issues? My main specialty is religious trauma, and whether you've experienced this kind of trauma or not, I work extensively with these sort of "trauma-adjacent" issues that affect people in their daily lives. Many folx grew up learning harmful lessons about themselves and their relationships, and now they're stuck in difficult patterns.
I've been there, and I can help. Not all therapists understand what religious and childhood trauma is like, especially "lower-case 't' trauma" when you can't point to one single explanation for why something was harmful to you. A lot of religious trauma therapists are also Christian; this doesn't mean that they're bad at what they do, but you might feel the need to work with someone from a more agnostic or skeptical worldview.

Lesley Lacny
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A, Psych.R, C.Psych, LPC
Are you feeling stuck or unsure of how to move forward? Maybe you’ve noticed patterns in your reactions or behaviors that no longer feel helpful or symptoms that make it hard to feel calm, present, and engaged in your daily life.
I offer a supportive, grounded space where you can feel heard while also being gently challenged to look beneath the surface. Together, we’ll explore the underlying drivers of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, so you can create meaningful, lasting change rather than just temporary relief.
My approach is both compassionate and practical, helping you build insight, shift patterns, and reconnect with a greater sense of ease, clarity, and direction in your life.

Gresham is the Portland metro's largest eastern suburb, a working-class and increasingly diverse city that has absorbed many families displaced by Portland's housing costs, including significant Latino, Slavic, and Pacific Islander communities. Economic strain, housing instability, and thin east-county services shape mental health need. Multnomah County programs and the Portland market anchor access, with culturally specific providers in growing demand.
