ABOUT
Jennifer Stratton
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a private practice in SE Portland, offering both in-person and telehealth sessions. I am a Certified Hakomi Therapist, and my work is additionally grounded in Primary Attachment Therapy, Attachment-Focused EMDR, and Mindful Self-
Compassion.
My approach centers on creating an atmosphere of safety, earned trust, and attuned connection. Within that relational field, I support clients in cultivating gentle yet proactive care for themselves, using warmth, presence, and mindful attention to guide the process.
My practice is informed by interpersonal neurobiology, attachment and developmental science, trauma-responsive care, and early experiences of stress. These frameworks shape how I understand human suffering and the pathways toward healing, integration, and resilience. I have several years of experience working with clients across the substance use disorder spectrum, as well as the family members and loved ones who support them. I particularly enjoy
helping clients deepen self-understanding, strengthen internal resources, and transform long- standing relational and emotional patterns in ways that feel sustainable, embodied, and compassionate.
