Online therapy in Oregon, Washington and California
Good therapy shouldn't mean sitting in traffic or rearranging your week. With secure video sessions, you can talk from home or a quiet office anywhere in Oregon, Washington or California, from Salem and Bend to Seattle and San Francisco. I'm Paul Walsh, a licensed marriage and family therapist in all three states, and it's the same warm, practical work as my Portland office.
In-network: Regence · Aetna · Moda · First Choice Health
Licensed in three states
- Oregon, license #T1413
- Washington, license #MFT.LF.61566900
- California, license #88877
You need to be physically in one of these states during each session. That's a licensing rule, and it protects you.
What I help with online
Everything I offer in person: derealization, grief, divorce, life transitions and anxiety. Many people find it easier to open up from their own space, and it saves the commute on a hard day.
