I’m Jacqueline Mai, Ph.D., a psychologist resident based in Portland, Oregon that provides psychotherapy to adults.
Each client comes to treatment with their own unique concerns. However, I have found that most folks want similar things: to nurture relationships (whether they be with family, romantic partners, friends, their community, or themselves) that bring lasting fulfillment to their lives.
Perhaps you’ve noticed that you struggle to achieve what those around you seemingly have. In our sessions together, you and I would explore the types of relationships you desire, how to achieve them, and factors in your personal history (e.g., experiences with primary caregivers, trauma) that may influence how you relate to others. At the same time, however, I believe that flexibility in approach and conversation—tailored to your needs—is essential for a successful treatment.
Therapy works best when you feel seen by your therapist.
If you’d like to see if we’re a good fit, or simply learn more about what therapy could look like, I invite you to reach out for a free phone consultation.
