I enjoy working with adults of all ages to make sense of transitional moments in their lives, including launching into adulthood, new parenthood, or newly single. I offer grief counseling as a significant portion of my practice as well. It is an honor for me to provide an affirming relationship to which you can bring all the different parts of yourself, and come to know and love them more....
My name is Kaci Schmitt (she/her). I am happy and honored to be able to offer counseling and therapy services to children, adolescents, and adults in Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington, as well as throughout the states of Oregon and Washington for teletherapy. I truly enjoy working with clients who are looking to process various experiences, transitions, and challenges in their lives, as well as gain knowledge, trust, and compassion for themselves and deepen their capacity for mental an...
I provide individual teletherapy for adults across the state of Oregon. I have a passion for helping people heal from trauma, decrease anxiety, and improve their self-esteem. Before patients come to see me, they “feel bad” almost reflexively and frequently experience high anxiety. They are wracked with feelings of guilt and may be afraid of upsetting people. They often over-extend themselves in the name of service to others. On the outside, my clients look like they have it together but feel int...
I am a queer fat femme who practices at the intersections of oppression, grief, trauma and liberation. I believe healing and liberation are our birthright. And yes, that means I believe that you can heal from complex, developmental and intergenerational trauma. And yes, I believe I can help. But when I say I can help, what I really mean is: I understand that the deep wisdom of your body knows the exact right way to heal. My job as your therapist is to help you learn to connect with this deep som...
Welcome! I'm glad you're here and I look forward to supporting you. My website provides in-depth info about who I am and what I offer, but in short: I enjoy and am passionate about supporting trauma survivors, members of the LGBQ+ and TGNB+ communities, people with existential angst (ie. folks who want to feel ok in an increasingly chaotic world), those who would like to be more compassionate towards themselves and others, and helpers who would like support setting healthy boundaries to care for...
I am passionate about empowering clients to gain self confidence, a stronger sense of identity and the ability to build healthy relationships. I believe how we move through the world is directly connected to our most basic understanding of our selves, and the relationships and role models we have grown up with. I also believe our culture plays a significant role shaping our identity and the relationship with the context we live in. Beginning with this understanding, I utilize aspects of differen...
I get excited about working with people who are ready to change their lives. I like going in to those shadowy places together and excavating. I also feel honored to hold a container for people to process pain and shadow parts of themselves in order to transmute or alchemize the energies in to resilience and strength. I am about sticking with people in their process until they feel completely seen, understood, and held. And then, when they are ready, transforming lessons learned into inner knowi...

I believe you have answers inside yourself to solve all the problems you might encounter. This self-knowing can get foggy in times of high stress, worry, anxiety or depression. Using solution focused therapy we will work to find your way back to your strong inner self. Relationships are challenging. I have over 10 years of experience helping people navigate all types of relationships; intimate partner, parent/adult children, roommate difficulties....
I, along with my dog, specialize in working with men aged 18 to mid-30s with an ADHD diagnosis, navigating a world built for "neurotypical" people and experiencing the frustrations, uncertainty, and confusion that comes with it. I frequently work with men to address issues related to stress, worry, emotional sensitivity and reactivity, anger, irritability, rejection and self-doubt, motivation, and relationships. I...
You may be seeking help on your own—to process past experiences and beliefs, strengthen your support system, or gain support in accessing affirming healthcare. You may be seeking help with family—longing for acceptance from family members, or needing guidance with discussing sexual health with your children. You may be seeking help with your relationship—wanting to deepen intimacy, unpack inequity impacting your relationship, explore shared sexuality, or establish clear boundaries. My mission is...

I bring a social justice lens and understanding of systems of oppression into therapeutic work. I will tell you what I am thinking, will challenge you intellectually, and actively engage with you. I will be open and honest in...
