Dr. Brynda Quinn, PhD

Psychologist
3500 NE M L King Blvd, Portland, OR
Brynda Quinn helps adults navigate emotional distress, life transitions, and health-related challenges with clarity, compassion, and evidence-based care. She provides individual therapy to adults and seniors across Oregon, offering a steady, supportive space for people seeking relief from anxiety, depression, trauma, and the psychological impact of medical conditions. Her work is grounded in thoughtful assessment and collaborative treatment planning, helping patients feel understood while building practical tools for lasting change. A central focus of Brynda’s clinical work is supporting individuals and families affected by cancer. She is especially experienced in addressing the emotional, relational, and identity-related challenges that can arise before, during, and after a cancer diagnosis. This includes helping patients cope with fear, grief, uncertainty, pain, sleep disruption, and major life changes, as well as supporting loved ones as they navigate caregiving roles and anticipatory loss. Her approach integrates health psychology with trauma-informed care, honoring both the medical realities and the deeply human experience of illness. In addition to health-related concerns, Brynda treats anxiety, depression, and trauma, including PTSD. She works with adults experiencing midlife and later-life transitions, grief, sleep disorders, and stress connected to medical procedures or chronic pain. She also has experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals and first responders and offers additional areas of clinical support beyond these core focuses. Her therapeutic approach incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based strategies, and specialized evaluations such as gender-affirmative medical readiness and medical procedure evaluations, tailored to each patient’s needs and goals. Brynda has been practicing since 1997 and brings decades of clinical experience to her work. Outside of therapy, she is a devoted cat mom and enjoys traveling with her family,
