Hi, I'm so happy you're here! My name is Maggie and I am a Colorado based licensed clinical social worker seeing clients in Oregon, Colorado, and Idaho via telehealth. I graduated from the University of Houston with a Master of Social Work in 2020 and since have worked in both medical and psychiatric hospital settings as a case manager and crisis intervention specialist and for a nonprofit providing solution-focused brief therapy and crisis intervention to teens and their families. Taking the first step to contact a therapist can feel intimidating and sometimes conflicting. Please feel more than welcome to reach out to see if we would be a good match!

Hi, I’m Paige! I’m a licensed therapist, and I work with adults who may look like they’re doing alright on the outside but find themselves struggling with anxiety, depression, self-doubt, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or uncertainty about what comes next. You may be navigating a major life change, questioning your decisions, or simply feeling stuck in patterns you’re ready to understand and change. My style is approachable, collaborative, and curious. I take an active role in therapy, offering insight and practical tools while giving you space to explore the experiences and patterns that have shaped you. I especially enjoy helping clients understand the “why” behind the way they think, feel, and respond, including how our nervous systems can be impacted by stress and difficult experiences. A big part of my work is also helping people recognize that they’re often more capable than they give themselves credit for. We’ll look at what’s keeping you stuck, what you want to do differently, and how you can build more confidence in your ability to handle what comes your way. My hope is that you leave therapy knowing yourself better and trusting yourself more.

I help adults (and teens 13+), virtually and in-person, who are struggling with anxiety, depression, sexual dysfunctions, eating disorders/disordered eating, and adjustment issues related to grief. Grief can manifest not just from death, but also from the end of a relationship, loss of a dream, health issues, or any unexpected changes in life. My work extends to helping those who have experienced trauma, as well as individuals looking to improve their self-esteem, strengthen their relationships, and manage stress effectively. In collaboration, from a trauma informed and compassion-focused approach, I will help you in creating a toolbox of techniques to soothe your nervous system while fostering self-compassion and building emotional awareness.

I earned my MA in Clinical Counseling from the University of Northern Colorado in 2008 and have dedicated my career to supporting others in their journeys toward healing, growth, and self-discovery. Alongside my work as a therapist, I own Still Water Yoga & Wellness in Bend, Oregon, a community I’ve nurtured around the belief that healing can take many forms and that we all deserve a space where we feel welcomed, supported, and accepted as we are. My background in counseling, yoga, mindfulness, and somatic practices has shaped my understanding of the deep connection between our minds, bodies, and lived experiences. I believe that healing isn’t about fixing what is broken, but about developing a deeper understanding of ourselves, reconnecting with our inner wisdom, and creating space for meaningful change.

I’m someone who genuinely enjoys people. I like hearing their stories, understanding what motivates them, and helping them figure out where they want to go next. I’m also adventurous by nature and enjoy staying active, taking on new challenges, and pushing myself outside my comfort zone. My approach to therapy is supportive, practical, and focused on meaningful progress. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing, better understand what’s underneath it, and develop realistic ways to move forward. I particularly enjoy working with men navigating relationships, work stress, fatherhood, life transitions, or the pressure to have everything figured out. My goal is to create a space where you can talk openly without judgment while still being challenged to grow. Ultimately, I want therapy to help you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, develop practical tools, and feel more confident handling whatever comes next.

Hello, I'm Samantha a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to adolescents and adults throughout California and Oregon. I specialize in supporting clients who are managing stress, navigating life transitions, and coping with anxiety. Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether you’re adjusting to a new role, facing uncertainty, or dealing with persistent worry. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a supportive space where you can slow down, reflect, and begin to make sense of what you’re experiencing. My approach is client-centered and collaborative. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—one where your voice is valued and your experiences are respected. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you and identify practical, realistic tools that align with your lifestyle and personal goals. Because no two individuals experience stress or anxiety in the same way, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs. I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where you can show up as your authentic self. My goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and build the confidence needed to move forward with intention. Therapy isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about creating space to grow, heal, and take meaningful steps toward the life you want.

My journey into therapy began with a desire to help the hurting individuals I worked with in a group home, and a genuine passion for helping others find strength through life’s most difficult moments. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people facing a wide range of challenges—experiences that have shown me just how powerful and transformative therapy can be. These moments have only deepened my commitment to walking alongside others on their path to healing. I’m continually inspired by the belief that every person holds the capacity for growth, resilience, and change. We can change and heal. Sometimes we just need a little help along the way. I treat adults age 18 and up.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
