Andrew Arehart, professional Counselor assoCiate

NOW SCHEDULING new clients!

I work from the perspective that therapy is about growth and adaptation. My goal as a therapist is to provide a relationship and environment that supports your growth. Whether the concerns
that bring someone to therapy are biological or behavioral, we are not talking about good people and bad people. Instead, we are talking about identifying ways of being that aren’t working and developing ways that do.

As a counselor, I’m not here to judge you for how you feel or what you do. Rather I will be in your corner to help you get a handle on where you are, figure out what’s working and what’s not working, clarify where you aspire to be and support you in developing and applying the skills to move towards that vision. I am here to provide you with a relationship where you can explore your experience, express yourself without fear of judgment and practice new approaches that you can apply outside of therapy.

 I hold a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have provided counseling in in-patient
substance abuse rehabilitation facilities and in community mental health organizations in Tennessee and North Carolina. I have returned home to Portland to continue this work in the Pacific Northwest.

I take a person-centered approach and rely on exploring the client’s expertise on themselves to reach their goals. I have experience in working with people living with substance use concerns, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, neurodivergence, trauma, loss, houselessness, and spiritual complexities.

I have tremendous admiration for people who
are willing to show up for themselves and take on the work that leads to growth and I am honored to do my part in working with you.
