About Meredith

Meredith Whitmore is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon with three years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, anger, relationship and family concerns, and parenting challenges. Meredith also addresses ADHD, grief, eating issues, career transitions, and coping with life changes.

Clients meet someone who uses plain language and practical steps. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill building, and exploring what gets in the way of change. Meredith draws on her background in community health to keep sessions down-to-earth and straightforward.

Her work often centers on improving communication, managing strong emotions like anger, and rebuilding confidence after hard experiences. She helps people notice patterns, practice new responses, and plan small experiments between sessions. Progress is tracked in day-to-day life rather than only in conversation.

Meredith has experience working with a very wide age range during her community health work, which informs how she explains things and sets realistic steps. She values teamwork in therapy and invites clients to weigh in on pace and focus. Practical tools are paired with reflection so change can stick.

Sessions are presented as collaborative and active. Meredith aims to be encouraging while keeping work concrete. She asks clients to try things between sessions and reviews what helps and what does not, so the plan evolves with the client's needs.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions

Many of Meredith's methods focus on clear, evidence-based techniques that teach concrete skills. Cognitive behavioral approaches help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different responses, which can reduce worry, low mood, and reactive anger. Behavioral activation methods focus on planning small, manageable activities to lift mood and build momentum when depression or demoralization make action hard.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Meredith treats therapy as a collaborative process and will review what seems to help, adjust techniques, and set goals together. Clients help shape the plan based on their goals, preferences, and daily life demands.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require being on camera, which can be helpful for certain situations. Licensed professionals can still use measurement and homework between sessions to keep progress focused.
