About Vera Anderson

I practice individual, adult psychotherapy in downtown Portland, Tigard and via telehealth. I work primarily with individuals who have mood and anxiety-related problems as well as those who are having difficulty with their relationships or are coping with stressful life events. During my VA internship, I worked with veterans, and I am currently a provider for Returning Veterans Project and Give an Hour organizations. 
I am credentialed by the National Register of Health Service Psychologists, the largest credentialing organization in psychology, which has stringent requirements for education, internship, and experience. My background includes an internship at the Palo Alto VA Medical Center and a postdoctoral fellowship at The Menninger Clinic (both clinical psychology).
My downtown office is located just South of Burnside near Providence Park, with easy access from 26,405 or Trimet. My Tigard office is located just of I5 and 217 in the area known as Tigard triangle.
