PATRICIA LEE, LCSW I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Oregon with 22 years of combined experience in mental health and medical social work. I graduated from the School of Social Work at Portland State in 1993 and subsequently participated in a training and consultation group that was led by some of my former professors. It was that training through the former Institute for Family Centered Therapy that ultimately influenced who I am as a counselor and social worker today and how I have practiced therapy over the years. My therapy approach is based on models that help empower clients by identifying strengths in themselves and their families. When people feel empowered they can and will improve all aspects of their lives. My style is collaborative. I view my clients as partners and establish treatment goals with them. I educate clients about any therapy modalities that I use with them, and keep them informed about their progress. I ask questions to elicit the client’s curiosity about his or her situation so that my clients can have a different emotional response to that situation. They will ultimately have a different (empowered) understanding of self. My practice experience has been with children, adolescents and their parents earlier in my career. The bulk of my clients have been adults of all ages with issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, family issues, other relationship issues, health and medical problems, employment concerns, bereavement, end of life concerns, and a host of other problems. I have provided individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy and group therapy in a variety of employment settings and in private practice. I have extensive experience in counseling adults receiving dialysis treatment at several outpatient clinics in the Portland metro area. I know that there are many barriers to pursuing counseling, including whatever stressful situation that you find yourself in, the stigma attached to mental health, the logistics of finding a counseling program or center, the difficulties of scheduling counseling appointments, and the challenges of connecting with a counselor that is right for you. I want you to know that schedule is flexible and I that will work with you to get through any other barriers.

My pronouns are he/him. My approach to counseling is as a partner to walk with someone towards a place of healing. I utilize a trauma informed, person centered approach to help others realize their potential and work closely with them, on the path of their choosing, to help them achieve their goals. I find that it is vital to the counseling relationship that we honor the unique experiences of all individuals and recognize the strengths that have brought them this far. I have personal experience with addiction and recovery that I believe enhances my ability to connect with others who are struggling. I specialize in working with individuals who identify as part of the LGBTQUIA2S+ community, those who are experiencing issues related to addiction, those who have experienced varying degrees of trauma, and those seeking gender affirming counseling and support. My primary therapeutic approaches are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, EMDR, Solution Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I understand that treatment is not "one-size fits all" and believe that in order to achieve long lasting change we must develop a plan of care together.

Hello! I'm so glad you are here! If you are ready to make some changes in life that are likely to result in improved mental health, improved quality of life, and general well being; you came to the right place! My approach in counseling is in general to look at the person as a whole; not as their symptoms of problems. I use holistic, solution focused, and trauma informed models to engage client's in the counseling process and achieve their goals. I have been trained in trauma informed approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR); which uses several tools to help client's negative past events have less emotional impact on their lives. I am also certified in a counseling approach called seed digging therapy (SD), which is developed off the therapy developed in the 90's called theophostic therapy. The premise of seed digging therapy (SD) is that each individual is generally mostly good, has a desire to be good to others, and wants to have a happy and productive life. The model states that a person's heart is a "garden" which in analogy has "weeds" and "flowers". Traumatic/Sad events tend to produce weeds and Happy events tend to produce flowers. Weeds in a persons heart can cause many negative reactions in life ranging from interpersonal relationships, self esteem, negative view of the world. Weeds occur when a lie is believed about that sad/bad event. Examples of weeds: not feeling adequate, feeling unloved, feeling a lack of importance. Flowers are developed when something happens that is positive/ good, and the individual believes something good about themselves. Examples of flowers: I do matter, I am important, I am loved, I belong in this group, family, friendship etc. The process of seed digging therapy is to find where the root of the negative thoughts started, and create an alternate belief opposite of the negative. Using narrative techniques, the person has the opportunity to recreate meaning if they want to. I am very excited to meet you, get to know you and help see you to the other side of where you want to be. If you would like to work more with me, we can talk more about your goals and what steps to take to get there.

As a dedicated clinical social worker, I specialize in providing empathetic and personalized care to those facing various challenges such as stress and anxiety, substance abuse, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, depression, suicidal ideation, life changes, and amongst many more. I bring a diverse range of experience and expertise to my practice, grounded in a holistic approach to mental health and well-being. With specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I offer evidence-based trauma therapy to help individuals process and heal from past experiences that may be impacting their present lives. In addition to my work as an EMDR therapist, I am also a certified drug and alcohol counselor with a harm-reduction approach. Recognizing the complexities of addiction and substance use, I provide compassionate support and practical strategies to help clients reduce harm and make positive changes in their lives. My clinical toolkit also includes behavioral therapy techniques for anxiety-related disorders, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), somatic practices and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). By addressing thought patterns, behaviors, and physiological responses, I assist clients in managing symptoms and reclaiming a sense of control over their lives. Furthermore, my expertise extends to the realm of attachment and relationships, including both monogamous and open relationships. Through a combination of attachment theory and relational therapy approaches, I support individuals in navigating the complexities of intimate connections and fostering healthy, fulfilling relationships. For clients struggling with trauma-related symptoms, I also offer Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), a structured and evidence-based approach to addressing traumatic memories and reducing distressing symptoms and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). By gradually approaching and processing traumatic experiences, clients can experience relief and reclaim a sense of safety and empowerment. In all of my work, I prioritize a client-centered and feedback-informed approach to treatment. I believe in the importance of attending to individual needs, preferences, and strengths, and I regularly seek feedback from clients to ensure that our work together is collaborative, effective, and empowering. My goal as a clinical social worker is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. By integrating a variety of therapeutic modalities and approaches, I empower clients to heal, grow, and thrive on their unique journey towards mental health and well-being. As a lifelong learner, I am dedicated to staying current with the latest research and best practices in the field of mental health. I regularly participate in trainings, workshops, and continuing education opportunities to expand my knowledge and enhance my clinical skills. Above all, I am deeply honored to accompany individuals on their journey toward healing, growth, and self-discovery. It is my privilege to be a part of each client's story and to provide compassionate, client-centered care that honors their unique strengths and experiences. A little bit about my education and career experience: I received my MSW focusing on trauma & interpersonal violence. A double major, Bachelor of Science in Criminology & Criminal Justice, and Psychology. I have worked in various settings such as the criminal justice system, re-entry program, recovery homes, homeless shelter for youth, adults, and families, day treatment center (ages 11-19), with individual in treatment court, individuals under the psychiatric security review board, and regular outpatient as young as 11 and across the lifespan.

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour.

- With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- With therapists: $100-300
