About Nora
Nora Church is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Oregon with 10 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, relationship concerns, ADHD, stress, and codependency. Nora also supports those coping with life changes, parenting challenges, and trauma or abuse.
Her background includes counseling and case management in school-based and day-treatment settings. Nora has experience supporting parents, people involved with foster care and adoption, and caregivers of children with disabilities. She completed a graduate specialization in grief therapy and has worked extensively with grief and bereavement issues.
Nora uses a mix of approaches to fit what each person needs. She listens to personal stories and focuses on how attachment patterns, life narratives, and present thoughts affect how people cope. Practical steps and small experiments in thinking and behavior are used alongside longer conversations about past relationships and patterns.
Sessions tend to emphasize clear communication, exploring how people get stuck caring for others at their own expense, and developing healthier boundaries and routines. Nora avoids stigmatizing labels and moves at a pace the person is comfortable with. She aims for direct conversation about problems and realistic next steps.

How sessions work
How attachment, narrative, and CBT work in remote sessions
Attachment-based work looks at important relationship patterns from early life and current connections, and helps clarify how those patterns affect feeling close, setting boundaries, or losing oneself for others. Narrative therapy helps people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships so they can see alternatives to old roles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps - noticing thoughts, testing them, and changing routines that keep stress and anxiety high.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean mixing approaches over time and checking in regularly about what feels useful.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, reduce travel, or choose a shorter check-in when time is tight. Some formats work better when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera; discuss practical needs and scheduling when you set up the first appointment.
