In these times, I am here to help you navigate through your journey and in doing the real work of life.

I hold a humanistic perspective, meaning I believe that you are whole, deserving, and perfect at your core. I trust that your inherent intelligence and ability to connect to yourself can be revealed and encouraged through the therapeutic relationship that we will create together. I respect that you are the ultimate authority on your life and experience.

I practice holistic and integral psychology, taking the whole body, mind, and spirit into consideration, bringing a somatic, depth, and transpersonal approach to our work. My practice is integrative: weaving elements of ecopsychology, dreamwork, mindfulness, and body-centered expression. I also find Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to be effective too. We will pay attention to “where” and “how” feelings and experiences are held within your body, and explore the deeper meanings in your life, as well as the deeper reasons behind your challenges and difficulties. I don't subscribe to the belief that there is something wrong with you, rather "what happened to you".

For therapy to work there needs to be personal accountability. While I work from a compassionate stance in helping you figure out what works for you, my style is very honest and direct, and therefore not for everyone.

I specialize in supporting people who experience chronic illnesses and invisible disabilities, neuro-toxic mental illness, chemical/mold/EMF sensitivities, and narcissistic abuse. I personally am a survivor of Lyme Disease and Mold Illness, and am here to walk this walk with you thanks to having overcome many of my own personal life challenges that has given me the empathy and understanding to be real with you.

Congrats on taking the first step of reaching out for the help you deserve.

I believe that everyone can reach an optimum state of health. I employ an eclectic (or including all kinds of therapy types) approach with a strong reliance on cognitive-behavioral aspects. I am trained in EMDR, Trauma-Focused CBT, PCIT therapy, Infant/Toddler Mental Health, mindfulness techniques, and possess a certificate in Substance Abuse Treatment. I also have several years experience and training with sexual assault and domestic violence. 

For my formal education and training; after completing my bachelor degree and obtaining a Substance Abuse Certificate, I realized I was not able to assist clients with trauma or other issues. So, I went back to school to get the degree I needed to be able to help all the people who came to me. Now, I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling.

My career began with teenagers in residential treatment for substance abuse, after this I worked with a younger group of 5-11 year olds in residential treatment for behavior problems. From there I moved to adults with legal issues and substance abuse, while having a second job as a sexual assault counselor. I have worked with very young children, under 1 year old and their parents, as well as older adults who are in need of resolving old conflicts in their past so they can look forward to the future and all others in between.  

The therapy techniques we use depend on you and what works best for you, this is a team effort with you in the lead. Let’s talk about how I can help you today. I welcome all ages and backgrounds.

As an Indigenous person, I deeply acknowledge that a sense of personal identity is integral for a culturally-informed healing and learning journey. My sessions typically include holistic approaches to well-being, such as grounding based on traditional values and empowerment, using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I use approaches that are evidence-based and allow for specialized therapy based on your values.

My educational background includes a Masters of Arts in Applied Psychological Science at Pacific University, which focused on integrating counseling skills with research, and my Bachelors of Science in Psychology from Portland State University. I also completed a six-month clinical internship at the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, where I gained knowledge in cultural responsiveness among rural and Indigenous people. Currently, I am a Professional Counselor Associate working toward full licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor under the supervision of a clinical supervisor.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative effort. Ultimately, my goals are your goals, and we'll work together to best meet your needs. If you're ready to talk, I'm here to listen.

When we journey through life it begins in wonder and amazement. However in time beauty is lost and the magic drains from the world. This magic is not gone, it lies dormant within our hearts where all is possible.

You have found yourself in a strange new world, but feel you don't belong. Afraid to reveal your true self and what you believe. What fears do you need to face? What stands between you and your happiness? Is life possible after trauma? When you learn to wield your mind skillfully like a sword, there is no foe too great and no challenge too steep.

Specialties: I have a passion for helping the LGBTQ+ community with anxiety, depression, trauma, and addictive thoughts and behaviors. I strongly believe in practicing and teaching meditation skills for formal and informal practice, building self-confidence and awareness through Non-Dual and integral philosophy, and self-empowerment through support in navigating life's many challenges.

Modalities: I have primarily found Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Person Centered Therapy to be the pillars of my therapeutic style. Additionally I have completed basic training for EMDR which I have found to be using in addressing post-traumatic symptoms and self-defeating thoughts and beliefs that hold us back.

Education: I have earned my Bachelor's degree from Portland State University majoring in psychology and earned my Master's degree in Applied Psychological Sciences with a clinical focus from Pacific University.

Experience: I have extensive experience with teens and young adults. I worked at Albertina Kerr, an in-patient setting, for children and teens who were experiencing severe emotional, mental, and existential distress. I was an intern counselor in an outpatient setting at William Temple House where I primarily helped young adults. I was employed by Marion County Children's Behavioral Health as both a crisis mental health specialist and therapist for children and teens for crisis intake and ongoing outpatient therapy.

There seems to be a rhythm to life. An outflow and an inflow, an up and a down. There is also a clockwise spin to the future or counterclockwise spin to the past projections in our minds. The more to the outer edges there is chaos and life experienced when attached or avoiding. But the more toward the center and into our self we go, the more we reach a point of order, stillness, and life when unattached and accepting of what may come.

I am Mary Dolson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oregon. I hold a Masters Degree in Clinical Social Work and I am a trained Psychotherapist.

I practice strengths-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy with an emphasis on the neuroscience psychological effect between our body, our emotions and our brain.

I studied clinical social work at Simmons University with an emphasis on trauma and neurology.

I spent the past 5 years working on forensic teams supporting individuals recently released from incarceration and working alongside Multnomah County and Federal Probation officers. During this time I worked with a Portland community health center to start a program addressing ADHD treatment as it relates to substance use and traumatic events.

I was born in Portland and grew up in the Northwest, graduating from Linfield College in McMinnville, OR before working as a Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor in Oregon for 17 years. I returned to graduate school at mid-life and earned a Masters Degree in Social Work from Eastern Washington University in 2006. I completed my clinical license (LCSW) in Montana, while working at the largest elementary school in the state for 8 years, before returning to Oregon to be closer to my family.

While in Montana I practiced individual and group therapy with children and their families. I also coached and refereed youth and middle school football for 10 years and use motivational interviewing and life coaching techniques in my daily practice.

I am a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (CBT), which is short term in nature and focuses on providing you tools and new ways to think about your problems, so you can begin to start making needed changes in your life. There are no magic pills or painless solutions to most life issues, but CBT can give you the tools you need to help you make the small and larger changes needed for your life to start improving. It is up to you. 

I help people who realize that some things in their life are not working and need to change. The world has shifted and we need to adapt to rapidly changing events beyond our control; as well as get some daily relief from the ongoing stress, anxiety, poor sleep and depression many people face daily. 

Since February 2020 I have been doing remote Teletherapy with adults and older teens and found it works to help people change their lives. Be prepared to do your homework, I always give you more to do between our sessions, so you can progress at your own pace.

I have over 10 years experience working in residential and community settings providing services to youth and their families. I draw from many modalities and adjust based on my client’s needs.

I received my Masters degree in Clinical Counseling from George Fox University in 2013. This new career path came after I had been a foster parent for several years. I have much experience with youth in foster care and their caregivers. I am certified Post Adoption and FosterCare therapist with ORPARC which has given me a strong foundation when working with this population. I also really enjoy working towards reunification goals both with the biological family and the youth as they navigate emotions especially after a long periods in care.

For younger children, I believe their language is play so will often incorporate play therapy techniques in sessions. Parent participation is strongly recommended as young people often struggle with big emotions and don’t know how to express themselves. The best way for me to teach them and incorporate better coping strategies is for them to practice at home as well.

For tweens, teens and young adults I believe developing their voice and autonomy is very important. We will navigate treatment planning and therapy goals collaboratively with parental involvement as necessary. I rely strongly on Dialectical Behavioral Therapy(DBT) for this age believing the positive effects in learning distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, emotional regulation, and mindfulness skills will benefit everyone. DBT is especially effective when treating youth experiencing suicidal ideations or self harm.

I will work with any diagnosis including but not limited to Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, ADHD, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I am accepting of all cultures, sexual and gender orientations. I look forward to getting to know you and help you be your best self!

A warm hello and welcome!

I seek to encourage people in growing hope, in creating meaningfulness and realizing perspectives from life experiences, to self-empower and self-accept in a safe, confidential, non-judgmental space, free of stigma and shame.

Counseling can be transformative and healing. Counseling can also be challenging and uncomfortable at times.  It is important to take it at one’s own pace. There are many different counselors to choose from and it can be self-empowering to choose a counselor or therapist that feels right to you.

My counseling approach is respectful, trauma-informed, person-centered, strengths-based and holistic. I believe wellness is possible through creating self-care practices, identifying and expanding positive coping and individual strengths, growing resilience and cultivating inner wisdom.  

I have worked primarily with talk therapy, creating the space and time to listen and listen deeply to what matters, exploring goals, naming and understanding obstacles, creating measureable action steps towards your decided goals.

I hold a master of science in Rehabilitation Counseling from San Francisco State University and am a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC). I am a trained counseling professional specializing in working with people living with disabilities, chronic illness, co-occurring conditions, and/or existing diagnoses. 

Since 2011, I have trained and worked with culturally and socioeconomically diverse people in diverse settings: community mental health, addictions/harm reduction, re-entry, transitional housing, clinical counseling, Veterans in recovery, street outreach, Veterans and community crisis/suicide prevention/intervention, vocational rehabilitation/return-to-work, and vocational organic landscape gardening training and teaching.

I am an ally and advocate to Military/Veterans, Disability, LGBT+, and BIPOC communities. I am happy to now be working at Stronger Oregon via telehealth to expand access to counseling during this covid-19 experience. I am a registered licensed professional counselor (LPC) Associate in Oregon and as an associate, I receive regular clinical supervision from a licensed clinician. I will share more information at the first session.
