About Brad Cohn, PHD, Licensed Psychologist, Owner

I am a native of Colorado. In 2006, I moved to Oregon to start graduate school at the University of Oregon. I graduated from the U of O with a Doctorate in School Psychology. While in school I completed two years of practicum in various school settings in the Eugene and Springfield areas as well as a full-time internship at North Clackamas School District in the Portland suburbs as a School Psychology Intern. I completed an advanced practicum at the Child and Family Center at the U of O. Following graduation, I spent several years working in community mental health clinics serving individuals with all types of needs. In 2015, I co-founded Madrone Mental Health Services, an agency which provides day-treatment and intensive outpatient treatment for individuals with eating disorders, as well as outpatient therapy for individuals with all mental health needs. After running that agency for four years I started my own private practice, Invictus Therapy and Consultation, in the fall of 2019.

When not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, writing, watching sports, and doing home improvement projects. I am a dog lover and avid Duck fan.

About Courtney Hime, MFT, LMFT

I received my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from George Fox University where my coursework focused on couples and family therapy, individual child/adolescent/adult counseling, play therapy, multicultural work, and trauma.

The foundation of my work is based on the idea that each person has inherent strengths and the capacity to grow toward personal fulfillment. I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches to meet the individual needs of my clients, relying on cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, and family systems models. My role and desire a therapist is to come along side you and assist you in uncovering and applying the strengths you already possess to promote positive change for improving wellbeing and increase happiness throughout your relationships and life. 

About Kristie Reisig, MSW

With a passion for helping individuals overcome trauma, navigate grief, bereavement, and find freedom from addiction, I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and personal experience to the therapeutic process. In addition to my specialized areas, I recognize the importance of addressing general mental health concerns. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, or other common challenges, I am dedicated to providing a safe and empathetic space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions, gain insight, and develop coping strategies. 

I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where I was recognized as a UNC Child Welfare Collaborative Scholar and recipient of the Annie Kizer Bost Award. With a Bachelor of Social Work from Mars Hill University, I bring a strong foundation of knowledge and expertise to my practice.

When not at work, I can usually be found in my backyard tending my garden and chickens (doggies, too!). In my free time, I enjoy paddleboarding, listening to live music, reading and spending time with friends and family.  

About Morgan Wardwell, LCSW, MSW

I received my Master’s degree in Social Work from Texas State University in 2002 with an emphasis on Direct Practice after having already worked in the field for almost 10 years, becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in 2009. While working for the U.S. Army I also received extensive education and training as an instructor, facilitator and mediator. At this time I have worked in the mental health field for over 30 years, practicing in Texas, Iowa, Illinois and Oregon, also having lived on three continents and worked extensively with LGBTQIA+, Native American, Asian, Middle-Eastern and alternative faith populations. As such I have been fortunate to work with a wide range of clients who have experienced a number of issues that include those related to veteran and military-related affairs, LGBTQIA+, autism, cultural differences, developmental disabilities, trauma and grief, and life transitions. My preferred therapeutic approaches of practice are Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Family Systems models as I believe these enable my clients to begin utilizing their strengths and experiencing a positive change from the first session.

About Shannon Beard, LCSW, MSW

The road to where I am now has been paved with some pretty amazing stops along the way. 18 years ago, I bailed on my plans for law school and moved to Portland, swan diving into mental health and crisis work. I began with the state level of care for children and adolescents, then with adolescents who have problematic behavior. The next chapters saw residential, going to grad school, and then 6 years working inside youth correctional facility providing treatment for young men aged 18-25 serving sentences between 10 years to life. Somewhere along the way I completed licensure for my LCSW and eventually shifted into rural healthcare providing therapy to patients aged 3-102 for anything from general anxiety to End of Life planning, to Alzheimer’s. Additionally, I have provided expert testimony in court proceedings on abusive behavior of all types (including crime convicted charges), domestic violence, and trauma, throughout all these years.

Now I am ready to continue providing therapy for you. As you consider me for your needs I’ll share with you, my approach. I believe that life is hard, and therapy can be really hard, but our time and space together shouldn’t be. I work to create an environment that’s as comfortable as possible for you. I’m here to help you be successful in the world as it exists for you, and YOU define what success means for you. You drive the car; I just hold the map and point out scenery along the way. So come in, bring your snacks, kick your feet up and let’s focus on your vision for you. Be well, talk soon.

About Sarah Cordua, LPC-A, MS

I worked with individuals and families experiencing crisis for over a decade before deciding to obtain my master’s in counseling from Walden University. Now, as a professional counselor associate, I provide cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic counseling, and brief-strategic interventions for individuals and family units wanting to address anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, codependency, and grief. I work with children, adolescents, and adults in a strengths-based way that emphasizes each person’s innate ability to discover and determine the direction of their life.

Through an active and developing practice of exercising cultural humility, I try to be aware of and sensitive to each person’s cultural identity and background. During our work together, conversations about identity and culture will always be welcome and encouraged.

Outside of individual and family counseling I run process groups for parents, advocate for universal human rights with community agencies, and learn all I can about research-based practices that promote wellbeing. I also especially enjoy board games, video games, soccer, and being outdoors with my friends and family.
