Dr. Eoin "Owen" Bastable, LCSW, Therapist in Portland, Oregon

He specializes in career and life transitions, including midlife career change, job search stress, workplace conflict, and the quieter unraveling that can follow a layoff or a role that no longer fits. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, Dr. Bastable helps clients separate their identity from their job title, manage the anxiety and self-doubt that surface during uncertain periods, and rebuild a sense of direction and self-efficacy — whether that means finding the next role or redefining what “next” even means.

Dr. Bastable also works with clients managing anxiety, depression, stress, and the particular pressures that people often carry in silence — including men’s mental health and the tendency to equate worth with output. He has a preference for in-person sessions but also sees clients remotely.

He is additionally experienced in supporting parents of children with disabilities, helping caregivers build the emotional stamina and structure needed to sustain themselves while sustaining others.

Outside the therapy room, Dr. Bastable finds his own balance through cycling, reading, playing music, cooking and traveling.
