With the stress of daily life, it’s not unusual to become overwhelmed at times. And many of us can benefit from therapy at some point in our lives. When it comes to finding a therapist, Hillsboro, OR can offer a wider range of choice than many surrounding rural areas. But finding the right therapist may not be easy, even in a more populated area. 

One reason for this is that within psychotherapy there are a large number of evidence-based approaches and techniques, and the efficacy of these approaches can depend largely on the challenges being addressed, as well as the preferences of the individual. Someone who is seeking treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder from sexual trauma may have very different needs than someone who wants to explore strategies for achieving professional goals. A therapist in your neighborhood that works with conflict in families may not be able to help if you’re experiencing a personality disorder. What you need personally may not actually be available in your area. 

That’s where online therapy from a platform like BetterHelp can come in. BetterHelp offers access to over 30,000 mental health professionals who specialize in a variety of therapy approaches, and have experience working with diverse populations. And because a feeling of unconditional positive regard and comfort from your therapist can be important to success, if you need to change counselors at any time you can do so at no additional cost. 

Online therapy can also be a convenient solution for busy professionals, parents, and students. Online sessions fit easily into any schedule, and with video chat, phone, and text messaging options, you can talk to your therapist from the comfort of your own home. 

Whether you’re feeling anxious and want to learn stress management skills to cope, are interested in a holistic approach to a fulfilling life, or are passionate about self-discovery, therapy can offer you the tools to become your best self. Contact BetterHelp to get started on your health and wellness journey.

Hello! My name is Catherine Chapman. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Oklahoma. I earned my Masters of Social work from the University of Oklahoma in 2012. I have been a practicing social worker for 10 years and, additionally, am certified in EMDR therapy which I have been utilizing in my practice since 2021. I have experience working in the hospital and medical field to help patients and their families to find the support and resources they need to get through whatever difficult life situation they may be facing. I feel this experience has given me a deeper understanding of the challenges people may face throughout their lives and the various reactions they may have, whether it be anger, grief, depression, or something else, while processing their own health concerns or those of a loved one. I realize that everyone faces these struggles either in their own lives or through someone close to them and that they can be very difficult to comprehend and accept at times. My goal as a therapist is to help people overcome these situations by providing them a better understanding and tools to guide them through these hard times. My methods focus on using the Strength Based Perspective, Person-in-Environment Perspective, EMDR, and Solution Focused Therapy. I believe you are the expert in your own life and I hope to help you recognize the strengths in yourself while offering support and a non-judgmental sounding board. I will take our time together seriously and give you my full attention to best help you. I look forward to working with you!

My goal in working with you is to help you focus on the causes of issues rather than the symptoms. Symptoms are an excellent road map, but it’s getting to the reason that creates long-lasting change. To help you work on what your cause may be, I use Cognitive Therapy along with a focus on your thoughts and how you manage what you think. I also encourage healthy self-care so that you are both mentally and physically finding the best balance possible to have the energy for your better life. Change is possible, and you can make things different! I can help you accomplish your desired changes.
