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.

Chuck Chapman
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
From the outside, it may look like you have your life together—career, relationships, responsibilities—but inside it can feel like something is missing. You may feel disconnected from your partner, unsure of your purpose, or just tired of carrying everything alone. Many men come to me feeling like they have to choose between being strong and being emotionally present. They’ve spent years keeping the peace, pushing through discomfort, and avoiding conflict, hoping that effort alone would be enough. Yet despite doing everything “right,” they feel lonely, resentful, unseen, or misunderstood in the relationships that matter most.
My work is about helping you step back into your life with presence, clarity, and confidence. I help men understand their emotional patterns, communicate from strength instead of defensiveness, and build connection without losing themselves. We will slow down the places where you feel stuck, uncover what you truly need, and develop the inner steadiness to lead yourself and your relationships well. I’m not here to fix you—you’re not broken. I’m here to walk with you as you learn how to show up with more courage, more honesty, and more connection. This is the work of becoming the man you were meant to be.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CADC I
I help adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or hard on themselves to feel more steady and self-trusting. I work with depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance use. I also help people understand their traits and interactions with others by providing collaborative, neurodivergence-affirming evaluations for autism and ADHD.

Meghan Hanes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Specializing in trauma, EMDR therapy, anxiety, and substance use, I help high-functioning women who feel successful on the outside but overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck on the inside. You don't have to keep pushing through on your own. Together, we'll explore the deeper "why" behind what you're experiencing and identify the patterns keeping you in survival mode. Using evidence-based approaches in a supportive, nonjudgmental space, I help clients move beyond insight alone and create meaningful, lasting change. If you're ready to feel more grounded, connected, and in control of your life, I'd be honored to support you.

Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Currently accepting clients! My approach is grounded in 20+yrs of clinical experience as a psychotherapist and 50+ years lived experience with an intersectional identity as a first-generation college student and adoptive parent in a multi-ethnic family. I help adult clients get out of their heads & skillfully back into their lives, with interventions drawn from the research-supported "third wave" of cognitive-behavioral therapy, which includes mindfulness and acceptance approaches, in addition to existential therapy, positive psychology, and nature prescriptions. Expect invitations for behavioral "experiments," culturally-relevant self-help resources, and client-centered compassionate care. Schedule a free 15 minute consultation to discuss your needs today.

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.

Portland has a strong therapy culture deeply intertwined with its progressive values, with high demand for therapists who specialize in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, trauma, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city's visible homelessness crisis and political tensions have contributed to significant community-level anxiety, and therapists here frequently address activist burnout, moral injury, and eco-anxiety alongside more traditional presenting concerns. Oregon Health & Science University provides major institutional mental health resources, complemented by a dense network of independent practitioners across the inner eastside, Hawthorne, and Northwest Portland. Oregon's relatively permissive telehealth laws make it particularly easy to access care from across the state.
