Haydon Weinberg

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Neuroscience from the University of Portland and my Master’s degree from Santa Clara University. My clinical experience spans school-based services, residential care, ABA, community mental health, and high-acuity crisis work. I have worked with children, teenagers, adults, and older adults from diverse backgrounds. I particularly enjoy working with teenagers as they discover who they are and who they want to become. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, relationships, life transitions, couples therapy, and men’s mental health. My experience also allows me to remain calm and responsive when situations become difficult.

I believe therapy begins with a genuine connection between therapist and client. My approach is person-centered and integrative, drawing from different therapeutic perspectives to meet each client’s individual needs. I create a curious, supportive space where we can explore your emotions, experiences, relationships, and patterns without judgment. I believe understanding why we think and behave the way we do can create the insight needed for meaningful change. I will validate your experiences while also challenging you when needed, because growth requires both compassion and accountability. Most importantly, we work as a team—you remain the author of your story, while I help you discover where you want the next chapter to go.

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building the connection that I believe is essential to effective therapy. I’ll want to understand what brought you to therapy, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you hope to accomplish together. We can take time to establish rapport and get comfortable, or, if you’re ready, we can dive in and start working right away. There is no expectation that you have everything figured out before we meet. My goal is to meet you where you are, listen without judgment, and begin working together toward the next chapter you want to create.
