You look like you have it together—but inside,
something isn’t working.
You might feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—overthinking everything or struggling to enjoy life.
You may have tried to push through it, ignore it, or figure it out on your own—but nothing seems to actually fix it.
We help you understand what’s really going on—and how to change it in a way that actually lasts.
Get expert therapy from the comfort of your home—no commute, no waiting rooms, and no disruption to your day.
100% Virtual • Insurance Accepted across Oregon
Most clients start feeling clearer and more in control within the first few sessions.
You’ve tried to push through it—but it’s not working
The same thoughts, feelings, or patterns keep coming back—no matter what you do.
You might feel stuck in your own head, constantly overthinking or worrying.
Or disconnected—going through the motions but not really feeling much.
Maybe you’ve tried to ignore it, stay busy, or figure it out on your own—but nothing seems to actually fix it.
That’s not because you’re broken. It’s because the patterns driving it haven’t been fully understood or changed yet.
You’re not the only one this happens to—and it’s more fixable than you think.
Real people. Real change.

Therapy that fits your life
Therapy shouldn’t add more stress to your day. Virtual sessions make it easier to show up consistently, stay comfortable, and focus on what actually matters—making progress. Clients prefer virtual once they try it.
What we help with
You don’t need to fit into a category—you just need help with what you’re going through. Here are some of the most common things we help people work through:
Anxiety & Overthinking
You feel stuck in your own head—constantly thinking, worrying, or replaying things. It’s hard to relax, even when nothing is wrong.
Trauma & Emotional Triggers (EMDR Certified)
Past experiences still show up in the present—through anxiety, stress, or reactions that don’t fully make sense.
Feeling Down or Alone
You feel low, disconnected, or alone—even when you’re around others. It’s hard to feel motivated, and things that used to matter don’t feel the same anymore.
Feeling Disconnected or Numb
You’re going through the motions, but not really feeling much. Things that used to matter don’t feel the same anymore.
Repeating Patterns
You find yourself stuck in the same thoughts, reactions, or situations—even when you try to change them.
Relationships & Communication
You struggle to feel understood, heard, or connected—whether in relationships, family, or everyday interactions.
If one of these sounds like you, we can help you work through it.
What makes this different
Most people don’t need more advice—they need to understand what’s actually going on and how to change it. That’s what we focus on.
You understand what’s actually going on
We help you make sense of what you’re feeling and why it keeps happening—so you’re not stuck guessing or going in circles.
You learn tools you can actually use
Each session gives you something practical you can apply in your real life—so you’re not just thinking about change, you’re actually making it.
Things finally start to click
Instead of repeating the same patterns, you begin to see them clearly—and learn how to change them in a way that actually lasts.
Our approach is grounded in proven methods like CBT, EMDR, and trauma-informed care.

I grew immensely in our time together. More so than any other therapist I've ever had. We parted ways months ago because of insurance issues and I'm currently shopping for new insurance so I can get back into sessions with Thaen. The time was invaluable.

09/11/2023I could not possibly over stress what a life changing experience it was doing weekly therapy sessions with Dr Thaen over the last 9 months. I recently moved states and was heart broken to have to end my therapy sessions with Dr Thaen, but I feel so, so incredibly lucky to have had such a safe space to process through some of the most painful experiences of my life. She was unendingly patient, kind, empathetic and consistently offered her perspective with the framing of 'let me know if this connects with you', which made me feel so comfortable expressing if at times her read wasn't exactly on the mark. I felt so incredibly comfortable sharing experiences that I hadn't even voiced aloud to a single other human. I'm in such a better place in my life, and I can't help but express an incredible amount of gratitude for Dr. Thaen and her intuitive and inquisitive care. She met me with kindness at every turn and helped to unlock some of the unconscious patterns that had been a mystery to myself. I could not possibly recommend her more throughly!!

Dr. Saelee has been a huge, positive force in my healing journey for the past half year. She’s helped me learn to understand myself in ways I hadn’t before, and it’s helped open my eyes to how I can better care for and nurture myself. You will not be disappointed if you decide to pursue therapy with Dr. Saelee!

06/28/2023Dr Saelee was so wonderful. She helped me figure out what I was doing was helpful for my issues. But she also added some important information that I hadn’t thought of. Gave me some stress related exercises to help me through times when I could feel the tension in my shoulders. She was professional. Easy to talk to & could understand exactly what I was going through. I will definitely contact her in the future when issues arise that I need clarification with. It felt great to have someone to talk to. Thank you again Dr Saelee for all your support.

01/08/2026I have been under Dr. Saelee's care for a little over a year and she is absolutely wonderful to work with. She is very insightful, kind, and patient. She helps guide our sessions so that I can explore new areas and sources of my anxiety and depression on my own. She asks questions that have opened my eyes to so many things I haven't been able to recognize by myself. I highly recommend her and feel so lucky to have been able to use her services!

Mental health wellness can often feel daunting. Recently I had the privilege of working with Avid Counseling and not only did it exceeded my expectation but also managed to shatter the barriers surround mental health stigma especially in my culture. It has reshaped my familys' perspective on seeking support for mental well being. Thank you.

03/01/2024I can't overstate how much growth and healing I experienced over 9 months of sessions with Dr. Thaen. This week marks a year since I moved states and had to leave her practice, but I still use the resources and tools she gave me daily. Her approach mixing EMDR, somatic practices, CBT, and nervous system regulation felt like a breakthrough for me after years of seeing primarily CBT/DBT-only therapists. Dr. Thaen welcomed feedback and provided space to reflect at the end of each session. She didn't hesitate to interrupt lines of thought or point out something she was noticing mid-session. It was often these gentle, but firm redirections that helped me build trust and be more vulnerable. Dr. Thaen is kind, straightforward, gentle, and clear. I would recommend her wholeheartedly.

08/30/2025Dr. Saelee is terrific! Compassionate, knowledgeable, wise and helpful. She isn't one to sugar coat truth and that is exactly what I was looking for. Anyone would be in terrific hands under the care of Dr. Saelee. Oh and I did an emdr session via zoom and it was truly incredible...and worked!
