Liza Hadden
Counselor/Therapist, MS
Hello, I'm Liza. My priority is to provide a safe and comfortable space for you to identify and work on your therapeutic goals. I aim to make therapy a client-led process and always adaptive to your specific needs. I specialize in women’s health, ADHD, anxiety, grief, and depression and feel passionate about supporting clients along the path of healing and growth. I also enjoy working with couples and families to improve dynamics and establish more fulfilling relationships. I believe in a systemic and holistic view of people, relationships and health. I also integrate mindfulness and body-based/somatic practices into sessions.
I have additional training in adult ADHD and women's health (specifically PMS, PMDD, perimenopause, menopause, perinatal & postpartum). I am passionate about supporting women at all stages of life, in addition to partnerships and families.

Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Currently accepting clients! My approach is grounded in 25+yrs of experience as a psychotherapist and community educator. I’m passionate about helping people grow through the tough stuff – and also thrive during messy or dark life seasons, 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.

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.

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.

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.
