“I have attended several of Yshai’s workshops, and really appreciate both the information and his presentation style. For families experiencing the struggles of parenting teens, he offers helpful, up-to-date strategies as well as a compassionate view of the challenges and opportunities these years can present.”

Yshai Boussi, L.P.C.

I graduated with my Master’s Degree in Applied Behavioral Science from Bastyr University in Seattle in 2003. The focus of my education and training was in marriage and family therapy. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a license through the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and Therapists. Prior to getting my Master’s degree, I worked extensively with individuals, teens and families in various non-profit community mental health facilities in Portland.

I was born in Israel, I have lived in Portland since the age of two. I went to Wilson High School and graduated in 1998 from the University of Oregon where I majored in Business Administration. In addition to loving the work I to do, I enjoy time with my family, playing basketball, watching good t.v. (The Wire and Friday Night Lights are two of my favorites), playing board games and going on hikes.

WHAT WE HELP WITH

We offer a variety of different types of counseling depending on your needs and the needs of your family.

Individual Counseling

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or stress? Are you coping with a major loss or trauma? Are you feeling stuck in your life? If any of the above are true, then individual counseling can help.

EMDR for Trauma

Are there specific traumatic or challenging experiences from your past that are still keeping you from being present? EMDR can help you unlock and reprocess those experiences from the past.

Teen Counseling

I’m at my wit’s end with my teen! I don’t know how much longer I can take all this disrespect. We really need some better tools. Do any of these thoughts ring true for you? If so, we can help.
