ABOUT ME

Jacob Lehman, PsyD

PSYCHOLOGIST / FORMER D-1 COLLEGIATE ATHLETE

I’m a clinical psychologist in Portland, Oregon. I have an active license in Oregon and Washington and work with clients from both states remotely through telehealth. I specialize in working with clients with depression, trauma, grief and loss, and performance related concerns in sports, academics, career, or other areas of life. I have also had the privilege to work with many neurodivergent individuals and have thorough knowledge of tech and gaming culture/communities. I work with teens, college students, adults, and couples.

I believe that a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship is essential to success in therapy, which influences how I will approach our work together. As your therapist, we will begin by gathering information about your concerns and areas of your life you are most wanting to create change in. I often view myself as a guide/companion who can explore the challenges you are facing with you and help you identify new and more effective ways to navigate difficult life experiences.

Through meaningful and genuine exploration of your concerns I will help you develop skills to better manage your distress and identify new ways to create meaningful and sustainable change in your life. I value feedback from my clients throughout our work together and I take a collaborative approach to developing treatment plans.

PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

  • I received my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Pacific University in 2020, where I completed my doctoral dissertation, The Relationship Between Athletic Identity and Resilience.

  • In 2017, I started an outreach program at University of Portland to establish better access to mental health care for athletes. In 2018, I further developed this outreach program into a permanent part-time practicum site.

  • I completed my doctoral internship at Montana State University as a college counselor in 2020. Working at Montana State University allowed me the opportunity to work with many indigenous groups and other ethnic minority populations.

  • I am currently providing mental health services in Oregon and Washington, and I co-own Portland Insight Psychotherapy with Dr. Arbo

PERSONAL

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling with my family, playing with my daughter like I am five years old again, woodworking, spending time outdoors, or working on a project around the house.

INSURANCE

I do not accept insurance and am considered an “out-of-network” provider.

Most insurance plans provide the opportunity to apply for reimbursement when receiving therapy services from an out-of-network provider. If you are eligible for insurance reimbursement, I will provide you with a monthly billing statement for the services rendered and fees paid. You will then be reimbursed for the amount you are eligible.

I can also bill FSA or HSA card directly.

Below you will find a reimbursement calculator to estimate your out-of-network reimbursement for meeting with me.
