LGBT therapists in Oregon

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oregon and Texas providing teletherapy to clients. I graduated from Portland State University with a Master’s in Social Work and have pursued extensive post-graduate training in trauma treatment, couples counseling, and ACT/DBT models. I specialize in working with folks that struggle with anxiety, depression, developmental or acute trauma, family of origin concerns, LGBTQIIA+ issues, obsessive thinking, and stress management.

I am Carrie Moore a licensed therapist with 10 years of experience. I have a passion for helping clients to find positive solutions to lead their best lives. I have extensive experience in dealing with addictions, anxiety, and depression.

As a social worker who specializes in mental health, I truly believe that prioritizing one's mental health is an important as one's physical health.

You deserve to have a space where you can show up fully as yourself and learn how to work with your brain, not against it! We'll probably work really well together if you are constantly trying to understand yourself, social/relational dynamics, your needs, and how to create healthier relational patterns. I am passionate about helping therapists, queer folks, and neurodiverse folks (ADHD/Autism) with complex trauma reconnect with safety in their selves and in relationships.

I strive to provide a place of safety and security for those seeking emotional and mental wellness by building meaningful relationships with my clients. I enjoy working with trauma survivors while they find a new way of living with their past. I like to look at a person from a system perspective. What system (family or otherwise) did you grow up with? What does that look like now? What changes can you make in your system to create healthier boundaries and more meaningful relationships?

At the heart of my work is a simple belief: we all have a fundamental desire to be seen and to connect. While life inevitably brings us through seasons of loss and uncertainty, I believe these moments are where our deepest growth happens. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for that connection to take place. Together, we can explore your unique journey, creating room for the self-discovery and healing that comes when we feel truly heard.

With decades of experience as a nurse practitioner and over 15 years specializing in mental health, I am committed to understanding each patient's unique story and life experiences. I have a special interest in resiliency and thriving after trauma. I am dedicated to supporting you as you determine the path and pace that best suits your needs.

If you're feeling stuck, challenged, or noticing yourself repeating patterns that no longer serve you, you don’t have to navigate it alone. Many people reach a point where they feel unsure about how to move forward or how to live in a way that feels more aligned with who they truly are. Together, we can work through these burdens and begin exploring what may be keeping you from experiencing the life you want. If you're not sure what your goals are or what might be preventing you from moving forward, that is a perfectly valid place to begin—or continue—your path toward change, clarity, and healing.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s Degree in Counseling and a secondary focus in Art Therapy. My background allows me to incorporate both traditional therapeutic approaches and creative expression when helpful, offering multiple ways to explore emotions, gain insight, and support meaningful personal growth.
