Dr. Vanessa Somohano, PhD

Psychologist
OR
I am Dr. Vanessa Somohano, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Oregon with a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Pacific University. I specialize in posttraumatic stress disorder and substance use disorders. For 13 years, I have provided therapy to individuals using cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness-based, and solution-focused approaches to address mental health concerns and improve functioning. My approach Informed by cognitive and behavioral principles, the techniques I employ help people develop more flexible ways of thinking about and responding to stressors or life changes, which in turn improves mood and daily functioning. I will teach you skills to become more responsive and less reactive in moments of distress, empowering you to make decisions that align with your values. I will also equip you with tools to help you think differently about your problems, reducing your distress. My focus I have worked with all types of people and mental health conditions, primarily serving Veterans, women, queer, and BIPOC individuals. I have successfully treated individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder, addictive disorders, depression, and anxiety disorders. My communication style I would describe my communication style as personable and collaborative, and my clients have described me as easy to talk with and approachable. I emphasize safety and trust as the foundation of our work together. While I bring specialization in treating mental health disorders, I view the client as the expert in their own lived experiences and integrate their knowledge into our work together.

It was the most infuriating process ever. Zocdoc made me sign up on two different sites, one of which took my insurance, but the other didn’t, so I canceled my appointment despite desperately needing it. Only then got a spam of emails telling me that I had an appointment and that it accepted my insurance and didn’t accepted insurance finally had to sit down and look through both companies (Zella or some stupid shit) realized that they aren’t the same company and that Zocdoc did accept my insurance and since I DID have an appointment that I needed I rushed home early for work and sat on the Zocdoc website for 10+ minutes waiting to hear ANYTHING, I attempted to contract the office on file to find it it was the support number for other website (Zelle or something) that didn’t TAKE MY INSURANCE but then the first person I talk about this just HUNG UP ON ME so I had to call a second time just for someone to say I never had an appointment. So yeah screw this company.
