Ian Schroeder

His pronouns are he/him. Ian Schroeder approaches counseling as a collaborative partner who walks alongside people toward healing, using a trauma-informed, person-centered lens to support clients as they pursue the path they choose. He emphasizes honoring each individual’s lived experience and recognizing the strengths that have carried them this far.

Ian brings personal experience with addiction and recovery, which he says enhances his ability to connect with others facing similar struggles. He specializes in work with the LGBTQUIA2S+ community, people dealing with addiction, those who have experienced various forms of trauma and abuse, and individuals seeking gender-affirming counseling and support. His practice also addresses stress, anxiety, anger management, relationship and family conflicts, eating disorders, parenting concerns, self-esteem, career difficulties, depression, coping with life changes, and coaching.

Ian has 15 years of clinical experience and holds licensure as an Oregon professional counselor and as a licensed mental health counselor in Washington. His primary therapeutic methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. He believes treatment is not one-size-fits-all and prefers to develop a tailored plan of care together with each client to promote lasting change.
