About Rivkah

Rivkah Barmore is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Oregon who works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, relationship and family issues, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 25 years of clinical experience, she integrates practical strategies and compassionate support to help clients navigate life transitions, manage mood and anger, address intimacy or attachment struggles, and cope with compassion fatigue and other complex stressors.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with attachment-based and client-centered techniques, along with trauma-focused interventions when needed. Rivkah also draws on holistic elements that attend to mind, body, and spirit, and she has training in trauma tools, anger management, and recovery from chemical dependency.

This range allows her to tailor sessions to individual circumstances and priorities. Rivkah has worked in individual, group, family, and marriage counseling settings and has experience across the lifespan.

She welcomes a diversity of relationship styles and identities and accepts international clients, offering sessions through multiple online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Therapeutic approaches suited for online care

Rivkah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and some aspects of addiction recovery. Attachment-Based Therapy is also a core piece of her work and focuses on patterns in relationships and early bonding experiences to address intimacy, family dynamics, and attachment-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She partners with clients to weigh goals, personal history, and preferences, and then adjusts methods as therapy progresses so the plan stays responsive to what is most helpful for each person.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, coordinate with busy routines, and access support from different locations while working with a licensed professional.
