Shelley McLendon

I have lived in the Pacific Northwest for over 30 years. I hold a Master's of Arts in Counseling and am a Licensed Professional Counselor with the State of Oregon.  In addition to private counseling, I have worked with individuals and groups in alcohol/drug recovery, in college counseling centers and in community mental health agencies, and taught courses in counseling and psychology as an adjunct university instructor.

Seeking the help of a counselor takes courage. With over 20 years of counseling experience, I view counseling as a partnership between the client and the counselor where both collaborate to identify what the client wants, what helps the client achieve that, and what blocks them from achieving it. Both work together to uncover patterns of thinking and behavior, and evaluate which patterns the client wants to keep, which patterns the client wants to change, and options for initiating that change.  I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I know that you are an individual, and I makes it a priority to keep your unique goals, life circumstances, and your strengths in mind. 

I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, family and dating relationships, weight/ body image, and challenging life transitions. I also specialize in working with those who work in the creative fields, and those who are currently processing a complicated history of spiritual faith and rule-based religion.
