I value authenticity, empathy, and self-awareness, both for myself, my clients, and as a critical part of the therapeutic process (I also take advantage of the healing power of laughter whenever possible!). I aim to normalize and validate my clients’ experiences without judgment, and above all, provide the most basic of human needs: to feel seen and heard. My name is Stephanie (or Stevie, either is fine) and I have been providing therapy in NJ exclusively via telehealth for about the last 5 years (prior to that, in person). I have a deep passion and respect for the power of therapy to change lives, which I have been privileged to witness in my work with clients, as well as in my personal life, both through the consistent use of therapy as part of my own self-care, as well as having spent the last 20 years raising two children with special needs. If you have been struggling with symptoms of depression or anxiety, particularly if they are related to a traumatic experience, I would love the opportunity to work with you to reduce your symptoms and help you experience a present that is not overshadowed by your past. I love working with women ages 20 to 30-something who are still in academia or just starting out in their careers, but also love working with women of any age. I frequently work with survivors of child sexual abuse, as well as those struggling with issues related to self-worth, but work with other conditions as well.

Hello and welcome. Taking this step relies on a certain amount of courage. This moment is an opportunity to give yourself credit for moving towards improving your wellbeing. Change is difficult. As humans, we naturally resist change even when the change is desired. Often, the point in which we seek help is when the discomfort of continuing in a certain way outweighs the fear of change. I offer a safe, judgment-free space for discovery, growth, and healing, focused on your needs, and tailored to your preferences. Since 2005, I have had the privilege of supporting adults who seek to better manage life transitions or stressors, improve their understanding of and relationship with themselves, or address mental health or substance use. My areas of specialty are in identifying and treating mood disorders including depression, anxiety, interpersonal patterns, and alcohol and substance use. In our shared time you can expect to connect your past with your present, identify what you want to do differently, the steps to get you where you want to be, and support through the change process. Therapy is not intended to be indefinite, so I help you keep a focus on progress towards your goal(s). I welcome feedback so I can best meet your needs and comfort level. If other services are needed or this is not a good fit, I will offer services while assisting you in finding you care that meets your needs and preferences. My services are available via video-based telehealth for Oregon residents who are physically present in Oregon during telehealth services.

No matter how significant life’s challenges may be, change and growth are always possible. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience as a multicultural counselor and psychiatric social worker in Oregon and South Korea. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals as they navigate emotional difficulties, relationship challenges, life transitions, and personal struggles while helping them build resilience and move toward becoming the best version of themselves. My counseling approach is grounded in authenticity, compassion, and collaboration. I believe counseling is a partnership in which clients and counselors work together in a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. Rather than focusing only on current symptoms, I help clients explore where their challenges may have begun, understand what may be maintaining them, and develop healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and responding. Because every person is unique, I tailor therapy to each client’s individual needs, personality, culture, values, and goals. I integrate a variety of evidence-based and holistic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Positive Psychology, Neuroscience-informed practices, Play Therapy, Art Therapy, Christian Counseling, and culturally sensitive approaches. My goal is not simply to help clients cope with difficulties, but to help them gain greater self-understanding, develop practical tools, strengthen their relationships, and create meaningful and lasting change.

My name is Jeffrey Yeom, and I'm a 1.5-generation Korean-American therapist. I believe one of our deepest human needs is to understand and to be understood. That's why I do this work: to help you realize you don't have to navigate life alone. My practice centers on decolonizing mental health, which means freeing you from values imposed by dominant culture so you can reconnect with what truly matters to you. I take time to learn your background, identity, and cultural world, then weave that understanding into rituals, traditions, and self-care practices that honor who you are. Together, we'll explore the emotions that point toward your truest values and gently rewrite patterns that no longer serve you. I work from an emotion-focused, attachment-based, and psychodynamic approach. In my sessions, I invite you to show up exactly as you are. We'll explore the relationships and experiences that have shaped you with curiosity, compassion, and without judgment. If you're looking for a space where your whole story can belong, I hope you reach out. Many of my clients carry stories shaped by migration, acculturation, or family expectations. You're not alone in navigating these.

Hi, I’m Troy Mitchell, a licensed therapist in Portland, Oregon. I provide individual therapy for adults who are ready to move beyond just managing symptoms and want to create a more meaningful, fulfilling life. My therapeutic style is collaborative, direct, and compassionate. I blend Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness-Based approaches to help clients reduce anxiety, depression, stress, and emotional exhaustion while building greater self-compassion, resilience, and clarity. I believe therapy should be practical and empowering — giving you real tools you can use both in and outside of sessions. Whether you’re navigating life transitions, struggling with self-doubt and perfectionism, healing from trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a supportive space where you can feel truly seen and understood. My goal is to help you live with more presence, purpose, and psychological flexibility.

I am a queer, neurodivergent, biracial, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist committed to providing therapy that is inclusive, identity-affirming, and grounded in social justice. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming, fat positive (Health at Every Size), trauma-informed, anti-racist, and pro-disability. I specialize in neurodiversity-affirming therapy for autistic and ADHD clients, as well as anyone who identifies as neurodivergent or experiences the world differently. I use a systems approach and draw from Narrative Therapy and Queer Theory. I believe problems occur in context and are shaped by the systems we move through—not because something is “wrong” within us. I work with individuals, families, and relationship systems (including couples and non-traditional partnerships). My goal is to create a safe collaborative space where you can explore your story, understand its roots, and reauthor it in a way that aligns with your values and lived experience. Coming to therapy is a brave choice that takes vulnerability, courage, and energy. I strive to bring empathy, compassion, and openness to every session. I value a collaborative approach where clients can guide treatment in the direction that feels most meaningful to them. Growth and change can be challenging, and my hope is that by offering a supportive and non-judgmental space, I can help clients navigate their challenges and move toward their goals. Everyone’s story is unique, and I am here to honor yours. I believe that we all deserve a safe space to grow, heal, and be truly seen. Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy spending time with my partner and two dogs.

Hi there, and welcome! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based just outside of Portland, Oregon, and I’m licensed to work with clients in Oregon, Washington, and California. I have been practicing for over 18 years and also work full time as a manager in a large healthcare organization, where I support teams and programs focused on helping people grow and thrive. As a therapist, I love helping people get clear on what matters most to them- what they want life to look and feel like, and then walking alongside them as they take steps toward those goals. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a partnership, where we’re exploring together what helps you feel more grounded, capable, and connected. A quick note: My practice focuses on working with individuals. If you’re looking for therapy for you and your partner together, I encourage finding a therapist who specializes in couples work to ensure you get the most out of that experience.

Hi there, I'm Leslie. Do you often find yourself overwhelmed by the demands of a busy life? Maybe you feel like something is "off" that you cannot quite identify. You may feel disconnected and experience frequent low moods. You might be someone who has been diagnosed or self-identified as neurodivergent, or you may be raising a neurodivergent child and feeling lost in coping with your feelings about how to navigate that challenge.

I support individuals across a spectrum of ages and circumstances to understand how to find their footing in their daily lives. I use a unique person-centered behavioral approach that is affirming and includes action steps to access change. When you meet with me, you will hear "real talk" grounded in evidenced-based techniques. Together we will discover a path to a more manageable daily life that fits your specific circumstances.

I work with teens, emerging adults, and adults who may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply wanting a better understanding of themselves. I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up as you are, feel heard and understood, and explore your experiences without fear of judgment. Together, we can look at the ways you think, feel, and respond to challenges, and begin to understand how those patterns may be affecting your life and relationships. My approach to therapy is warm, accepting, and collaborative. I don’t believe there is a one-size-fits-all approach to healing, so I work with each client to understand their unique experiences, strengths, needs, and goals. I use evidence-based approaches and practical tools to help you build greater self-awareness, develop skills that feel meaningful and manageable, and find healthier ways of navigating life’s challenges. Most importantly, I believe you already have strengths within you that can help you move forward. My role is to walk alongside you, help you uncover what may be underneath the struggles you’re experiencing, and support you in building resilience, confidence, and a deeper understanding of yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what you’re going through, and create space for meaningful change.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience helping people heal from trauma, navigate life transitions, and reconnect with themselves in meaningful ways. Originally from Maine, my journey has taken me across the US, different countries, and through many different communities, including serving in the U.S. Air Force. These experiences continue to shape my approach—bringing structure, adaptability, and a deep respect for each person’s story. My clinical background includes extensive work with military members, veterans, first responders, and women facing anxiety, self-worth challenges, and complex relational or identity struggles. I understand what it means to carry invisible weight—and how important it is to have a safe space to unpack it. I specialize in trauma-informed care, using EMDR, Brainspotting, somatic therapy, and attachment-based approaches to support deep, lasting healing. I take a bottom-up perspective, helping clients explore how the body holds on to difficult experiences and gently work through what’s been stuck. I also integrate CBT and Emotion-Focused Therapy to support insight, emotional regulation, and self-compassion. Clients often describe me as grounding, warm, and collaborative—with just the right amount of directness. I believe healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken, but about reconnecting with your own inner strength, clarity, and capacity to grow. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck, you’re not alone. I’ll meet you where you are, and together we’ll move toward clarity, healing, and a stronger sense of self.

Appointments are available outside of 8-5 working hours starting as late as 7 pm! It takes courage to reach out for help when you struggle or feel stuck. As a therapist, I'm dedicated to creating a secure setting where my clients can express themselves and work through obstacles, adversity, and life changes. Therapy provides an opportunity for clients to question long-held beliefs that may no longer be beneficial to their present lives and make lasting change. In my practice, I work to create a non-judgmental and affirming environment where you can explore, process, and feel.

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.
