Patricia Hansen, LPC
Licensed in: Oregon, Washington
I am passionate about helping families and children find hope and healing through therapy. My focus on Marriage & Family Therapy and Play Therapy stems from a belief that small, achievable, and consistent interventions can create profound change. I strive to provide a supportive and nurturing environment where individuals and families can work together to build stronger connections and improve their lives.
About Me
I earned my Doctor of Education (EdD) degree from Idaho State University in 1997 and have since dedicated my career to supporting clients facing challenges such as PTSD, family conflict, and emotional struggles. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, I guide clients in developing skills and strategies to navigate their unique situations. My goal is to foster resilience and growth, helping each client achieve a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Headlight accept insurance?
Yes, Headlight accepts most major insurances such as Aetna, Kaiser, Magellan, Anthem and more. To confirm we accept your insurance, please call 800-930-0803.
What is the difference between a Therapist and a Prescriber?
Therapy, often provided by psychologists, social workers, or counselors, involves talking through emotional and psychological challenges to gain insight and develop coping strategies. Whereas, psychiatry, typically led by medical doctors, focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues using medication alongside therapy when necessary. While therapy emphasizes conversation and behavioral strategies, psychiatry integrates medication management to address biochemical imbalances in mental health conditions.
How much will my appointment cost?

Do Headlight providers offer telehealth visits?

Can I see both a Therapist and Prescriber?
Yes. Seeing both a Therapist and Prescriber is incredibly common and can lead to better results. Talk with your provider and discuss if combining Therapy and Medication Management makes sense for you.
What can I expect in my first appointment?
During your first session you will meet with a licensed professional to discuss your medical history, current feelings and relevant life factors. From there, you and your provider will work together to create a personalized treatment plan. If you don’t feel like your provider is a good fit, please let your provider know. They can help transfer you to a new provider that might be a better fit for you.
