Dana McPherson

Dana McPherson is a clinical therapist licensed in Oregon and California, holding OR LCSW L16003 and CA LCSW LCSW123245. She has four years of professional experience providing therapy to people across the lifespan, from teens to older adults.

Her practice focuses on stress and anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and depression, self-esteem, career matters, and coping with life changes. She also works with LGBT clients and offers a non-religious, liberal therapeutic approach.

Dana approaches each person with sensitivity, respect, and compassion, tailoring sessions and treatment plans to meet individual needs and meeting clients where they are in their journey. She recognizes that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life—whether through improving relationships, getting unstuck, or resolving past issues—takes courage and provides supportive guidance throughout that process.

Please note that Dana does not provide couples therapy. Because appointment availability can be limited, she asks that prospective clients be respectful of others who are waiting; three no-show appointments will result in termination of services.

Her credentials indicate Licensed Clinical Social Worker status in both Oregon and California, reflecting her professional training and licensure.
