Houston Hill Counseling LLC

People commonly seek out therapy because they feel stuck in patterns they don’t know how to escape. They may struggle with addiction, anxiety, depression, disappointing relationships, low self-esteem, feeling emotionally overwhelmed, or seeming completely disconnected from the world and the people around them. These challenges sometimes stem from unresolved "developmental trauma" or negative experiences early in life, that are often the result of abuse, neglect or shame that shape the way we see ourselves, attach to others, or engage the world, and may evolve into patterned reactions to life. If you’ve tried therapy before and felt frustrated with attempts to sustain change, you are not alone. I hear similar stories from many clients. Therapy is not about “fixing you” it’s about helping you understand yourself more deeply and developing tools for living that can lead to meaningful and lasting change. Clients have told me that they have left our time together feeling more grounded, more at peace, and more in control of their lives. Hi, I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Oregon and Washington. I'm Nationally Certified as a Master Addictions Counselor and EMDR Therapist.

From the comfort of your own home we can work together to identify and enhance your existing strengths while utilizing an eclectic mix of evidence-based methods and techniques grounded in neurobiology and trauma research, to uncover perceptions, emotions, or behavioral patterns that may be limiting your potential to build and experience the life you want. Healing from trauma, addiction or other mental health issues is possible! Therapy can help transform your life from being something to be endured to something to be enjoyed!
