West Linn, Oregon Barbara Dornblaser, Therapy Clinician

Barbara Dornblaser helps teens and adults build steadier footing when anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions feel overwhelming. She provides individual therapy through LifeStance Health for patients across Oregon, offering a supportive, practical approach that blends compassion with evidence-based care. Barbara works with teens and adults navigating stress, mood concerns, grief, PTSD/trauma, and major midlife or later-life transitions, tailoring treatment to each person’s goals and lived experience. A central passion of Barbara’s work is supporting women’s issues and individuals who are self- or late-diagnosed as autistic. She understands the relief and complexity that can come with recognizing long-standing patterns later in life, and she creates a validating space to explore identity, sensory needs, masking, burnout, and self-advocacy. Her work in this area emphasizes strengths, self-understanding, and practical strategies to improve daily functioning and relationships. Barbara commonly treats anxiety, depression, and PTSD/trauma, while also addressing additional concerns as they arise. She serves select populations including individuals on the autism spectrum, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and first responders. Her therapeutic approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, with mindfulness skills woven in to support emotional regulation and values-based living. Outside of her clinical work, Barbara enjoys reading literary fiction and memoirs, writing, arts and crafts such as quilting and jewelry-making, learning to paint, spending time with her two cats, visiting the Oregon coast, and sharing meaningful one-on-one time with friends and family.
