Portland, OR Marriage & Family Counselor
Bernard McDowell, LCSW
Personal Statement
With many years of experience as a counselor, I am equally comfortable working with individuals or couples for a broad spectrum of concerns. My websites have in-depth articles on depression, anxiety, anger, and couples counseling.

Typically, couples call in a crisis. Some report problems over one big issue. More often they describe falling into patterns of conflict “over every little thing” to the point being together is miserable and frustrating (while separation seems even more excruciating). I welcome individuals presenting with depression or anxiety whether intense chronic symptoms or the acute pain of heartbreaks, divorce, low self esteem, or just feeling stuck.

In my approach, clients often discover therapy as a surprisingly delightful learning process, sometimes challenging, often humorous, creative, joyful, deeply moving or simply straightforward and practical. In addition to very refined skills, I bring my heart and soul to my work which is a great source of satisfaction to me.
