Founder / Therapist / Clinical Supervisor at Head & Heart Therapy, LLC

The summer is a great time to start therapy! Summer months are generally slower for therapists since people are busy traveling and enjoying the weather! Therefore we have some openings. Call or text to schedule your FREE consultation! (971) 200-0482 We have some amazing clinicians who have extensive training. I’ve also been getting into something called outcomes based care (OBC), which basically means, I am working to ensure that Head & Heart Therapy ACTUALLY helps people to change. Because, although I do believe that personal growth is a lifelong process, I also know that the research shows that therapists are NOT great at predicting outcomes and they often rate themselves better than they actually are!!! 😅 So I encourage you to ask your therapist (or prospective therapist): - How do I know this is going to be effective?  - What are my treatment goals (by law all therapists must have a diagnosis and treatment plan)? - What sets you and your clinic apart?  - What evidence based practice do you use and what training do you have? Along with any other questions that are important to you. YOU get to decide who your healthcare providers are. #wellness #PNW #Portland #mentalhealth #EMDR #CBT #IFS #Therapy #Summer #PDX #OREGON
