About

Steven Hayes understands how frightening the first steps toward change can feel. He supports people who want growth, change, or simply to feel better, guiding them through new, shifting, or challenging waters with steady, practical care.

He works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, LGBT issues, relationship difficulties, anger management, depression, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and coaching.

He is a licensed clinical social worker in Oregon and brings three years of clinical experience to his work. He blends a nurturing manner with clear, direct guidance to help clients move toward their goals.

His counseling style is direct, interactive, and solution-focused. He likens the therapeutic relationship to a ship where the client is the captain and he serves as the first mate - together they make choices and create action plans aimed at personal growth and greater well-being.

His approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and reality therapy. Conversations and treatment plans are tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals.

Seeking a more fulfilling, happier life takes courage, and Steven is available to support and empower those ready to take that step. He looks forward to working with new clients.
