Holding Hope Counseling LLC

Hello! I’m Evelyn Drambarean, a Professional Counselor Associate in the state of Oregon. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, relational and attachment wounds, addiction recovery, grief, life transitions, and the emotional exhaustion that can come from people-pleasing, perfectionism, and constantly caring for others while losing connection with yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that meaningful healing happens when people feel genuinely seen, understood, and safe enough to explore their inner world with honesty and compassion. I especially enjoy working with clients who are motivated for growth and self-awareness, but may feel stuck in painful patterns, overwhelmed by emotions, disconnected in relationships, or unsure how to move forward. My work is rooted in evidence-based practices including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), while also integrating attachment-focused and experiential approaches, mindfulness, self-compassion, CBT, DBT-informed skills, and IFS parts work. I tailor therapy to each individual’s unique story, strengths, and goals. Whether you are processing grief, rebuilding after addiction, working through trauma, or learning how to create healthier relationships with yourself and others, I strive to provide a grounded and compassionate space where healing, resilience, and deeper connection can grow.
