Laura Levin, LPC (She/Her)

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists. I came to counseling later in life and believe that my lived experiences heighten my ability to understand and empathize with clients. I truly appreciate everything I learn from clients and am humbled by the trust they place in me to share their lived experiences and collaborate in the healing process.

​The Counseling Process

I value each unique individual as worthy of unconditional acceptance which is the cornerstone of growth and healing. I appreciate differences and diversity as opportunities for people to learn from one another and build understanding and connection. I take a person-centered approach to the counseling process and believe each individual has within themselves an innate drive to reach their full potential. An environment of unconditional acceptance, empathy and positive regard opens the door for this potential to actualize. I view the counselors role is to provide this environment, utilizing a collaborative approach supportive of client healing and self-actualization. 

I am skilled at adapting my counseling style to suit your needs as a client. I integrate a person-centered approach with elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, existential therapy and logotherapy.  I believe the client is the true expert on what they need and my role is to help facilitate the self-awareness which can direct their path to healing. ​

​Practice Areas

I work with clients across the lifespan. I have a special interest in treating clients who experience anxiety, depression, individuals seeking support in navigating dysfunctional families of origin and clients with a history of trauma. I also work with adolescents and young adults who are LGBTQ+.

Professional Experience

I hold a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University. I am an EMDR basic trained counselor. I have previous experience working in community mental health as an outpatient counselor with a vast majority of individuals.
