Additionally, 7 therapists provide sliding scale fees, catering to clients with financial constraints. 19 of these Positive Psychology therapists are currently accepting new clients, and 18 offer in-person sessions. The directory allows users to filter by these criteria to find a suitable therapist in Oregon.
