Rooted in Connection, Growing in Practice

We’re so glad you’re here! At The Hope Connection, we’re always looking for passionate, collaborative professionals who value connection, growth, and making a meaningful impact—whether you're a seasoned therapist, associate, or student intern.

Become an Associate

The Hope Connection is more than office space—we’re a team of dedicated professionals who value connection, collaboration, and mutual support. We believe that transformative therapeutic work shouldn’t be done in isolation. Together, we learn, grow, and support one another through the rewarding and sometimes challenging work of mental health care.

We offer a supportive environment for like-minded mental health professionals seeking private practice without the isolation or startup stress. Associates benefit from our established reputation, shared resources, and access to fully equipped offices in Portland and Newberg.

Options:

  • 12-month contract: $300 setup fee + $550/month for full access to both locations.

  • 6-month hybrid: $300 setup fee + $325/month for one in-office day per week, with all other sessions conducted via Telehealth.

We'd love to hear from you if you're seeking a collaborative space to grow your practice.

Clinical Supervision

At The Hope Connection, we offer clinical supervision for those seeking licensure as licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), or registered play therapists (RPTs).

We approach supervision from a collaborative developmental lens and work together as mentors, coaches, and consultants. Our goal is to assist the clinician with increasing their therapeutic skills, awareness of knowledge, and desire to gain more insight into their field, ethical concerns, building up their professional self, and attending to self-care.  We provide individual and group supervision to allow clinicians to discuss in a one-to-one and group format, providing peer feedback and perspectives.  We also offer assistance with helping a clinician learn to build their own private practice or to take it to the next level.

Our supervisors continue to receive their own consultation, whether through individual supervision or peer consultation. We believe that learning doesn't end once a clinician is licensed, and we are aware of the importance of staying updated with training and other professionals in the mental health field to maintain an ethical and thriving career.
