Alzheimers Therapists in Hillsboro, OR

Though I haven't yet worked with any Alzheimers clients, I have worked with some Parkinson's subjects as well as other neurological problems. Hypnosis has been shown to be effective in helping with Parkinson's tremors as well as other aspects of the condition including depression. I was asked if I could help someone suffering from a condition called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, which is related to ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease. It is a condition with no cure or treatment. When I first met the client, he had been deteriorating for 12 years and was expected to die soon. He was confined to a wheelchair and could no longer speak. He drooled constantly and though wearing a bib, already in the morning was soaked with saliva. He suffered from tremors and got locked in repetitive movements several times a day, had trouble sleeping and couldn't get motivated to do his physical therapy, the only thing his doctors could offer him. In our first session, we were able to eliminate the tremors and repetitive movements, get him to sleep more soundly, and motivate him to do his PT. After the second session he was able to speak for the first time in ears and he got out of his wheelchair and walked. After 5 sessions you couldn't even tel he was sick and now, 6 years later, he's till walking the dog, gardening, hiking his favorite trails.

Hillsboro is home to Intel's largest site and the anchor of Oregon's Silicon Forest technology corridor, hosting a dense concentration of semiconductor, electronics, and technology companies that makes it one of the most significant tech manufacturing hubs in the United States. The city has grown substantially as a result of tech sector employment and has a notably diverse population including significant Latino and Asian communities alongside the technical workforce, many of whom have relocated for Intel or other tech employment. Washington County Mental Health provides public behavioral health services, and a growing private therapy sector serves the professional community. Common therapy concerns include tech industry stress and burnout, immigration and acculturation for the city's large immigrant workforce, economic anxiety amid semiconductor industry cycles, and the relocation and community-building challenges of a workforce that has often moved significant distances for career opportunities.
