Jennie FreimoEller

Hi, I’m Jennie! I grew up here in Portland and have a deep affection for this quirky city nestled between the ocean and the mountains. I identify as white, genderfluid/non-binary, able bodied, monogamously partnered, and pansexual/affectional. I strive to create a safe space for people with identities differing from my own and encourage discourse and transparency around how our social locations affect our lived experience. I practice from anti-oppressive and decolonizing therapy lenses and continue to look critically at my own privilege and the power dynamics it can create in relationships.

I graduated in 2022 with my Master’s in Professional Mental Health Counseling from Lewis and Clark with a focus in LGBTQIA+ counseling and a certificate in Ecopsychology. This education allowed me to combine my passions for environmentalism and healing with nature, and my desire to work within the queer community. I have had additional training in Trauma work, Grief work and also Superhero Therapy if adding the familiarity of favorite characters to your hero’s journey sounds supportive to your process. My previous career was in Clinical Informatics (electronic medical record support) for a large healthcare system, giving me significant experience working with medical professionals, if you are looking for someone who understands that world.
