Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Bend, OR

Hello, my name is Jessica Garbutt Burden, and I have been working as a licensed Clinical Social Worker for 9 Years and in the field for 16year. I choose the field of social work because of the strength based solution focused applroach, In undergradute school I focused on international studies incorporating polical science, philosphy, anthropology and spiritual studies at University of St, Thomas University and recived a BA ininternational studies with a focus on Latin America. I then began working with at-risk youth as a program director in Campfire USA's school-based program in partnership with the Police Actvity League and Sun Schools. It was through that work that i found my true calling was therapy focused on inclusion, incresing individuals streanth and processing trauma. During graduate school I interned for Morrison child and family services and Grout elementary school continueing my work with at risk youth. After graduate school I continued my work with Morrison and worked providing Crisis intervention and prevention, and intensive home-based therapy for families in crisis. I now specialize in mood disorders, PTSD and CPTSD.

I received my PhD from Fuller Graduate School of Psychology and have experience in community mental health, university counseling center, and hospital settings. I also worked as a professor at Fuller Graduate School of Psychology and as a clinical supervisor for doctoral students before transitioning to my current full-time private practice. I enjoy working with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds, and I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, and spiritual/faith-related concerns. I believe authenticity and humility are essential qualities in an effective therapist, which is why I am committed to my own ongoing personal growth and development as part of my clinical role.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) offering telehealth psychiatric care across Oregon and Washington.

With 12 years of nursing experience laying the foundation for my deep love of patient care, I bring warmth, clinical expertise, and heartfelt dedication to individuals navigating life's most complex mental health conditions.

Specialized Sensitivity

Expertise in hormone-related mood changes, pregnancy and postpartum care, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and menopause. I'm committed to providing a safe, supportive space .

Integrative Wellness

I weave together evidence-based psychiatry with somatic and mindfulness techniques to help clients reconnect with themselves.

Whatever mental health concerns you are navigating, my approach is always trauma-informed and heart-centered.

I see therapy as a collaboration between two people dealing with the messiness of being human. For me, being professional isn’t about appearances—it’s about a serious commitment to the ethics of counseling, to learning the craft of therapy, and to supporting your self-understanding as it evolves in real time.

My primary goal is to understand your life and your hopes on your terms. We work from there to help you get more of what you want and less of what you don't.

While my background includes a clinical license and training in a range of approaches to therapy, I also have a longstanding interest in history, philosophy, and literature. However, I don’t bring that book learning directly into our sessions; I hold that knowledge lightly and draw on it only when it may help. Whether you’re wrestling with deeper questions about purpose or just trying to get through a stressful week, I’m interested in helping you shift your life in ways that make what you want more likely.

I work well with people from a wide range of backgrounds and belief systems. You don’t need a particular worldview—or any specific way of talking about yourself—to work with me. If you’re willing to share what’s going on for you, we can usually work together.
