Overview

Hey there, I'm Topher Welsch. I offer teletherapy and in-person sessions in Portland. I became a therapist because I know what it’s like to face challenges with addiction and mental health—and I also know change is possible.

I specialize in Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), an evidence-based approach that helps people build on strengths and move toward the life they want. It’s especially useful for people navigating recovery from alcohol, drugs, gambling, or other addictive behaviors.

In our sessions, we’ll clarify what you want to be different, notice what’s already working, and draw on your own resources to support lasting change. I believe in your ability to create a future where addiction no longer defines you—and I’ll be right there with you as you build it.

I am a master's-level candidate holding a certificate to practice in Oregon as a social work associate. I practice under a board-approved clinical supervisor, pursuant to OAR 877-020-0012, at Mindful Therapy Group, P.C.
