Our Story

Therapists who show up for you

NuVision Counseling was founded on a simple belief: everyone deserves access to skilled, compassionate mental health care — without judgment, without a waitlist of months.

Our Mission

Healing that honors your whole self

NuVision Counseling was founded in 2012 by a group of therapists who believed the mental health system was failing the people who needed it most. Too many barriers. Too little warmth. Too much waiting. We set out to build something different.

Today, our team of five licensed therapists serves individuals, couples, and families across the Portland metro area — in person and via telehealth. We bring together diverse clinical backgrounds and a shared commitment to evidence-based, culturally responsive care.

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Every person who walks through our door — or logs into a session — gets a treatment plan built around their specific goals, history, and strengths.

"The goal isn't to fix you. It's to help you find the strength that was always there."
— Dr. Anita Scott, Founder & Clinical Director
Evidence-Based

Every approach we use is grounded in research. We stay current with the latest clinical findings so your care reflects what actually works.

Client-Centered

You set the pace and the goals. Our role is to provide structure, expertise, and a safe space — not to tell you who to be.

Culturally Aware

We actively work to understand the cultural, social, and systemic contexts that shape your experience and your mental health.
