Would you like to start therapy, but are worried that you can’t afford it?

Did you know that we accept the Oregon Health Plan, and mental health therapy is provided at no out of pocket cost to clients with this coverage? If you are pregnant or you recently have had a baby, you may now qualify for OHP coverage when you previously may not have.

If you have commercial insurance, many plans do not require for you to meet your deductible amount for mental health services, with many plans only requiring clients to cover a copayment amount. We often see copays range from $10 to $40 per appointment. If you are curious what your insurance might cover, give Nick a call and he’d be happy to give you an estimate. It may be more affordable than you think.

We also offer a low cash pay option, as well as a sliding scale fee reduced service cost. HSA funds are another great option to cover counseling. We strongly believe that everyone deserves access to mental health therapy, and we are happy to discuss how we can support you in getting care.
You are worthy of feeling well. 🌿

With the uncertainty around SNAP and WIC benefits going into November, we wanted to share local resources to help reduce food insecurity.

Please feel free to drop the contact information of any food assistance providers in Oregon, and if you’re able to help, now is a great time to make a donation to local food banks to support our community in need. No one should have to go hungry. 💛🍎

Parenting is hard. Parenting with ADHD can be incredibly stressful.

Executive functioning challenges can make organization and time management really difficult.

Competing demands make it hard to prioritize where to spend your time and energy.

It can be harder to regulate your own emotions, let alone support your kiddos who are losing it.

Some days the laundry piles are more like mountains and you can’t get anything done. Other days you’re the fun mom dancing in the kitchen, building epic pillow forts, and you’ve swapped out all the 2T clothes for the next size up. You are a good parent on both of those days. You don’t have to earn your worth.

If you’re parenting with an ADHD brain, remember:

✅Routines can be flexible
✅Hyperfocusing can be a strength
✅ ADHD doesn’t make you a bad person, or a bad parent
✅Your presence is more important than your productivity

You are not alone in your overwhelm or your ADHD victories. We get both, and we can help you implement new strategies and techniques to help mitigate ADHD challenges and feel more confident in not only your parenting, but in yourself. 🪴

We are here if you need us!

October is infant and pregnancy loss remembrance month, and October 15th is the international Wave of Light memorial ceremony, where people from all over the world light a candle at 7 pm to honor the little ones who left this world too soon.

Many people chose to do the Wave of Light at home, and it can also be really beautiful and powerful to attend an in person event. Linked in the comments are some in person Wave of Light ceremonies in Oregon.

We do have openings if you’d like individual therapy support for infant and pregnancy loss. It’s a honor to hold space for you and the little ones you hold in your heart. 🪴🩵

Did you know that we have a graduate student intern therapist starting with us next month?

Chris Hill is completing her master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Corban University and will be ready at start seeing clients in August!

What are some of the benefits of seeing Chris?

Chris will be at Gathered & Wise for a year, and will get extensive perinatal specific clinical training and experience.

Chris will have a small caseload, with ample time to get to know your case, and research and share relevant tools, strategies, and supports.

All cases will be supervised and guided by a licensed therapist, getting the benefit of two therapists overseeing your treatment.

All intern therapy appointments are billed at a cash rate of $50, making it a very affordable option for those that are uninsured, have an insurance that many providers do not take, or for those that have a large deductible amount to meet for mental health appointments.

Seeing a cash pay therapist also a great option for people who may not meet clinical necessity for treatment (those without a diagnosis), but would still like the support of a therapist to make desired changes or process life changes.

In addition to having a passion for supporting mothers, Chris has a lot of experience in helping clients reach health related goals and changing unwanted behaviors.

She has availability, where many therapists have long wait lists. Chris is also just a lovely human. She’s warm, kind, empathetic and has a solid educational foundation of clinical skills.

If you could use the support of a caring therapist that will help you make desired changes, Chris is a wonderful choice and is now scheduling new clients. 🌿
