About
As a queer-identified woman of Native American ethnicity, I understand the unique challenges of identity exploration and intersectionality.
I am a dedicated practitioner providing compassionate and expert mental health care to individuals across Oregon. I offer individual therapy and medication management supporting adolescents and adults in navigating their mental health challenges. I specialize in treating ADHD, mood disorders, and gender-affirming care. I also have extensive experience addressing PTSD and trauma-related disorders. My passion for working with clients in addiction medicine has been impactful in my 11 years of professional experience.
With a patient-centered approach, I collaborate closely with clients to develop personalized treatment plans that promote long-term well-being. I work with individuals to process past experiences and build resilience. I support individuals with complex needs including psychosis and schizophrenia.
By integrating my clinical expertise with a warm, empathetic approach, I empower clients to gain stability and lead fulfilling lives. I understand the profound impact mental health challenges can have on daily life, and I work diligently to ensure all clients feel seen, heard, and supported.

I believe mental health is a meaningful journey, and I’m here to help you navigate it with steadiness, support, and compassion.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 9 years of experience supporting clients through a wide range of mental health concerns. I specialize in treating mood disorders, anxiety, trauma-related conditions, behavioral challenges, and women’s mental health. My approach combines compassion, evidence-based care, and a focus on helping clients build clarity, confidence, and resilience in their daily lives.
I earned my doctorate in nursing from Walden University and have extensive experience providing individualized care across diverse clinical settings. I integrate psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to support meaningful change.
I believe healing starts with awareness and grows through intentional, supported change. Together, we will explore your thoughts, emotions, and patterns with honesty and compassion. My goal is to help you move from surviving to thriving—restoring calm, clarity, and confidence as you navigate life’s challenges.

I am a trauma‑informed LPC, QMHP‑C who shows up with warmth, steadiness, and genuine care, inviting you into a space where you can slow down, feel truly seen, and make sense of your experiences at a pace that feels safe and human — an approach shaped by years of walking alongside people in moments of transition, vulnerability, and growth.
I'm Leah Perkins, an LPC, QMHP‑C with experience in community mental health, residential care, and reentry support. I work with adults navigating trauma, overwhelm, and major life transitions, offering a steady, compassionate space where they can reconnect with their strengths, rediscover what’s possible, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, hopeful, and aligned with who they want to be.
I use trauma‑informed, strengths‑based approaches like EMDR, CBT, and DBT skills to help clients build clarity, resilience, and self‑trust. Together, we move at a pace that feels safe, focusing on grounding, healing old patterns, and creating meaningful shifts that support a more connected, empowered life.
You deserve a life that feels vibrant, meaningful, and full of possibility. If you’re ready to step into your strength and move toward the future you’ve been hoping for, I’d be honored to walk beside you as you grow, heal, and create the life that feels right for you.

As someone with lived experience with mental health issues, I believe that recovery is always possible.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience supporting individuals facing addiction, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. I have worked in hospital settings, community mental health, and crisis environments, providing care to individuals experiencing acute mental health and substance use challenges. My work is grounded in creating a supportive, respectful space where clients feel safe to share openly and honestly.
I have a master’s degree in community counseling from Fort Hays State University. My approach is strengths-based and individualized, allowing me to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. I focus on identifying personal strengths and building skills that support long-term recovery and emotional well-being.
I am committed to helping you feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward meaningful change. Together, we will identify your goals and develop practical strategies to help you move forward with confidence. I look forward to supporting you as you begin or continue your journey toward healing and a more fulfilling future.

As a person who has experienced addiction, depression, and trauma/loss, I understand the complexities of navigating internal and external challenges when attempting to achieve goals and maintain quality of life. I am committed to helping others build resiliency and achieve their goals.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate the complexities—and often confusion associated with—anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and other challenges. I work collaboratively with clients to clearly define goals and a supportive environment aimed at achieving sustainable change.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from Portland State University. My clinical approach is client-centered and often grounded in narrative therapy to identify and externalize problems. Through the use of motivational interviewing, stages of change, and cognitive-behavioral modalities, I help clients build a realistic plan to achieve goals.
I understand what it's like to live with personal struggles and try to manage them on your own. Shame, stigma, and societal pressures often prevent people from accepting help. It takes courage and humility to confide in another about our own emotions. I encourage you to schedule an appointment to discuss how we can work together to achieve your goals.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Child therapy, also known as counseling for kids, helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst kids include behavioral issues, trauma, bullying, depression, and anxiety. All ages of children can attend and benefit from child therapy at Thriveworks Medford.
Child therapy works by using multiple techniques tailored to fit the child’s needs based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve play therapy for younger kids or cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks child therapists in Medford, OR have the expertise and experience to help kids at their level.
Child therapy is a type of therapy meant for clients within a specific age group, while play therapy is an approach to therapy that helps children with self-expression and stress relief, among others. Play therapy is a technique that is often used in child therapy to help children express what’s running through their minds when they do not have the words to express their thoughts and emotions. It can get children to express what’s wrong, what might be causing unwanted behaviors, or what they might need in a way that is accessible to them so that therapists can then work to treat the issue.
It’s not always obvious when a child should see a therapist for their behavior, though in the midst of challenges like divorce, loss, bullying, and other mental health conditions, it’s often a good idea to seek it out. Common behaviors that can indicate a need for child therapy include separation anxiety, bedwetting (at inappropriate ages), and agitation/excessive irritability — especially if it reaches a point of physical violence.
Cognitive behavioral therapy at Thriveworks in Medford, OR is one of the best types of therapy for children. However, it can be administered in child therapy sessions in a variety of ways that are more accessible to young minds, such as play therapy.
Child therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of child therapy depends on your child’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, child therapy sessions will last for several months.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay.
