Help me find a therapist in NE Portland

I would like recommendations for a therapist -- preferably in NE Portland -- to help me work through my feelings about the recent death of my father, and related difficult family dynamics surrounding his death.

I'm sorry Nanook. Good for you for wanting to get some help.

I don't have a reference, but I would suggest (from my extensive history of therapy) to feel comfortable interviewing a few different therapists. You'll be able to tell right away if its a good fit for you. It is so important to feel comfortable with the person you end up speaking with. Trust your gut.

Good luck

Julie Nelligan, who's over on Mississippi near Skidmore, is who I recommend.
