Eryn Keller-Arndt , LCSW

Eryn Keller-Arndt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of professional experience, practicing in Oregon and holding licensure in both Oregon and California. She has worked in community mental health settings and in hospice, bringing a depth of experience supporting people through some of life’s most challenging moments. Her background includes helping individuals cope with grief and loss, major life transitions, addiction, domestic violence, trauma, homelessness, depression, anxiety, and concerns around self-esteem.

She approaches care with respect, an open mind, and compassion, and she emphasizes tailoring therapy to each person’s goals, life experiences, and beliefs. Her clinical practice integrates client-centered principles with cognitive and behavioral strategies, as well as motivational interviewing and trauma-focused techniques, adapting methods to fit the needs of each client. This flexible approach supports work on relationship and family issues, parenting and caregiver stress, sexual assault and abuse recovery, mood disorders, and challenges such as isolation, codependency, and compassion fatigue.

Eryn frames therapy as a collaborative journey in which therapist and client partner to identify goals and build a treatment plan. She recognizes the courage involved in reaching out for help and aims to offer steady, practical support to improve quality of life and promote meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Eryn often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening with empathy and supporting clients to identify their own goals and strengths - this approach is helpful for building self-esteem, processing grief, and navigating life transitions. She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that helps people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Motivational Interviewing is another technique she employs; it is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps people explore and strengthen their own motivation for change, often useful with addiction, ambivalence, and behavior change.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Eryn works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for those with busy schedules, mobility limits, or caregiving responsibilities. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to engage in treatment from locations that work best for the client, supporting consistent progress and convenience.
