didn’t have to end?

Hi! I’m Amanda Halbert, a Portland, Oregon based therapist focused on helping couples heal their relationships. I partner with my clients to help them understand the ways our backgrounds shape behaviors, beliefs, and attachment strategies. My focus is on relationships, however I also offer individual therapy.

I use a blend of relationship models, and welcome all people regardless of race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. I work with with LGBTQIA+ and ENM people in an affirming and judgement-free environment.

I offer therapy for couples and individuals dealing with:

  • Healing from infidelity

  • Childhood trauma

  • Relational trauma

  • Substance abuse

  • PTSD

  • Intimacy issues

  • Healing from a break-up or divorce

  • Negotiating boundaries in ENM relationships

  • Working through jealousy in ENM relationships

  • Rebuilding trust from relationship ruptures
