Lindsey Lundin, LPC MS M.Ed.

Welcome! Are you carrying the weight of past hurts, struggling in relationships, or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety? I offer a compassionate space where you can gain insight into yourself & your relationships, process trauma, develop strategies to manage anxiety, and find new ways of relating to yourself and others. Together, we’ll work toward easing what keeps you stuck, so you can create healthier patterns, beliefs, and connections that support lasting change. I specialize in interpersonal trauma, relational/attachment challenges, anxiety management, identity development, and LGBTQIA+ support. Oftentimes, this looks like deeply exploring past experiences, interpersonal relationships, patterns, and self-image. Over the years, clients have expressed that through our work together, they feel more empowered to advocate for themselves, increase healthy interpersonal dynamics and communication, understand their emotions and anxieties, and process through their harmful experiences. My approach is very relational as I believe that long-term growth and healing happens within trusting, healthy relationships. I see the therapeutic relationship as the catalyst for deep reflection and shifting inner narratives to ultimately work towards lasting change. As a relational therapist, I deeply value the relationships I build with clients. Part of building those relationships requires authenticity, transparency, and compassionate accountability. This foundation is what allows clients to engage with the kind of therapeutic work that leads to transforming shame into healing. As someone who holds both privileged and marginalized identities, I am mindful to keep examining how my identities intersect with and impact my clients and how we discuss the systems of oppression that impact mental health and wellness. I utilize an attachment and systems lens with an intersectionality framework. In my practice, I often use elements of Internal Family Systems/Parts Work while also focusing on skill development and interpersonal awareness. I am also trained in Mentalization-Based Narrative Exposure Therapy (MBNET) for interpersonal trauma processing; if you are interested in that specifically, please reach out to discuss options. I hold an M.S. in Counseling from Portland State University with a specialty focus on systems, attachment and relationships. Additionally, I hold an M.Ed. in Early Childhood Development from Loyola University in Maryland. For clinical supervision, I utilize an integrated developmental model and I am currently accepting new supervisees. When I'm not being a therapist, I'm enjoying Portland and quality time with my family, friends, and sweet dogs. Inclusive Connections Counseling offers trauma-informed, culturally responsive therapy that is affirming of queer, trans, and neurodivergent populations. Offering telehealth appts anywhere in Oregon to individual adults 21+. Currently, I am not offering in-person sessions but that may change in late 2025/early 2026. If interested, please reach out for a consultation.
