About me.
Hi, my name is Valerie Mustonen and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been practicing since 1996. I worked in an In-patient adolescent psychiatric unit for several years then switched to outpatient treatment doing individual and family therapy. Afterwards, I transitioned to medical social work and worked in many different areas of OHSU including emergency medicine, mother/baby unit, and women’s health. I have been seeing clients in my private practice for many years now and really enjoy the connection I make with my clients.
My primary areas of clinical practice include working with families, couples and individuals. My focuses are on depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, relationship struggles, self-esteem and women’s issues. My specialty is with behavioral and cognitive modifications in order to help you heal and thrive. I will provide you with a safe space to work through your issues and receive help in making positive life changes.
