Introduction

I'm Skyler Whitley, a lifelong Oregonian and resident of Portland since 2011. I am passionate about my local community and the values of equity, social justice, and disability rights. My services exist to meet the needs of the neurodivergent community. I specialize in providing mental health services to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) including autism, Down syndrome, and other forms of neurodiversity. I am here to support you with managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health challenges. At this time, I provide services solely via secure Telehealth software. My approach includes: - A client-centered and strength-based foundation: You are the expert, and you make decisions about your own treatment goals and needs. I am here to support you through the process. - Prioritizing accessibility for you and your team: If you'd like, this may include involving your family or support team in counseling sessions or care coordination. - A combination of evidence-based therapeutic strategies, including cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and motivational interview. It is crucial that people with disabilities have access to mental health counselors who can meet their unique needs. With over 15 years of experience in the mental health and disability service fields, my mission is to fill that service gap. Let's work together to achieve your goals! My Background: - I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my Master of Social Work (MSW) Degree from Portland State University. - I have worked at an I/DD case management agency (i.e. "brokerage") since 2013. In that role, I provide case management to adults with I/DD, and I supervise a team of Case Managers
