Portland Psychotherapy

Edwards Psychotherapy is a Portland-based practice specializing in individual and couple therapy, as well as training for therapists. Our team comprises experienced, compassionate, and effective clinical psychologists, each bringing over thirty years of in-depth training and practical experience to our work. Our aim is to empower individuals and couples to overcome challenges, lead more fulfilling lives, and strengthen relationships.

Our services are accessible through telehealth for clients residing in Oregon. This enables us to offer support to a wider range of clients without compromising the quality and effectiveness of our therapy sessions.

Therapy for Individuals

We understand that individuals may encounter various challenges such as divorce, illness, or loss, and might experience feelings of anxiety, depression, worry, or dissatisfaction with life. Our experienced clinical psychologists provide a confidential and caring environment where individuals can express their feelings and overcome these challenges. By identifying thought patterns, behaviors, and emotions, our therapists help individuals construct new perspectives and develop healthier coping strategies.

Therapy for Couples

Every couple faces obstacles that might hinder their journey toward a satisfying, lively, and close relationship. Sometimes, these obstacles result in poor communication, feelings of disconnection, or constant criticism. At Edwards Psychotherapy, our skilled therapists utilize evidence-based methods to enhance communication, empathy, and intimacy. With the right guidance and support, couples can navigate challenges, and restore and strengthen their relationship.

Training for Therapists

At Edwards Psychotherapy, we are dedicated to equipping mental health professionals with the latest skills and techniques to help their clients. Our upcoming emotion-focused therapy training group for individuals is set to take place in Portland, Oregon (dates to be announced). This cutting-edge training program incorporates research-validated approaches and comprehensive skill-building sessions. Participants will learn to help clients enhance emotional awareness, develop more adaptive relational patterns, and strengthen their ability to navigate through challenging situations.

Our Approach

We believe in the integration of various research-based approaches, such as psychodynamic psychotherapy, gestalt therapy, and emotion-focused therapy for individuals and couples. This blend allows us to tailor our therapeutic strategies to the unique needs of our clients, ensuring a more personalized and effective healing experience. Our ultimate goal is for our clients to lead more fulfilling and meaningful lives while fostering stronger and healthier relationships.
