The Oregon Therapist

About us

The Oregon Therapist was created by an Oregon licensed mental health provider who understands firsthand how challenging it can be to find the right mental health care in Oregon. Whether you’re trying to connect with a therapist, explore treatment options, or discover mental health care employment opportunities, this platform was built to help make finding support less overwhelming and easier to start.

Our site features a growing directory of Oregon registered mental health providers, and treatment centers and agencies, as well as job listings in the behavioral health field. The goal is to offer a centralized, user-friendly resource where people can learn about available options in Oregon.

About the team

Elinor Tejeda

Founder

I’m Elinor Tejeda, the creator of The Oregon Therapist. I’m a licensed professional counselor based in Oregon and currently run a private practice. After a couple of years working on this project, I’m so excited to finally launch this site! My hope is that The Oregon Therapist will ease some of the confusion and stress that often comes with finding the right support.

The idea for this platform grew out of my experience as a therapist and the ongoing challenges I faced when trying to help people find mental health support. Whether it was clients, callers seeking support, friends, or family members, so many people seemed unsure of where to start or how to find a therapist. I often saw how overwhelming and discouraging the process could be, even from the provider side. The Oregon Therapist aims to offer a clearer, more accessible starting point for anyone searching for mental health services in Oregon.

I received a Master’s of Art in Professional Mental Health Counseling from Lewis & Clark College. I received a Bachelor’s of Art in Psychology and Digital Art from the University of Oregon.
