Therapy works best when clients feel truly seen and supported. Our approach is relational, compassionate, and evidence-based, meaning we focus on authentic human connection while grounding our work in clinically proven methods. We meet each client where they are. Our therapists provide care that honors each person’s identity, lived experience, and cultural background — especially for those in the LGBTQIA2S+, neurodivergent, and marginalized communities. We understand that mental health challenges don’t exist in isolation; they’re shaped by systems, relationships, and life experiences. Our clinicians use a range of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), internal family systems (IFS), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and motivational interviewing, tailored to each client’s goals. We emphasize collaboration — clients are the experts in their own lives, and therapy is a partnership. We also believe accessibility is a form of care. HTNW offers telehealth and in-person sessions, same-day appointments when possible, and works with Oregon Health Plan (OHP), Tricare, and commercial insurance to reduce barriers to getting help. Above all, we strive to create a safe, affirming, and healing environment — one where clients can explore, grow, and rebuild trust in themselves and others.

Our mission is simple and local: people in communities treating their neighbors across the Pacific Northwest. Our vision is to create an inspiring space where you can heal, thrive, and grow—not just manage symptoms, but build a life that feels whole and connected. We live this through our core values: Authenticity (showing up human and real); Equity in Action (prioritizing culturally responsive, accessible care for communities too often overlooked); Courageous Care (leaning into the hard stuff with compassion and skill); Client Empowerment (you lead your healing, we walk alongside); and Community Belonging (we serve as part of this region, not apart from it). Grounded in these commitments, every interaction—clinical, operational, and communal—aims to honor your story and support lasting, meaningful change.
