Vicki Zeitner, LPC

Vicki Zeitner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 17 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship challenges, and life transitions. She blends practical strategies with reflective inquiry to support clearer communication, healthier boundaries, improved work-life balance, and steadier moods. Vicki draws on a wide range of therapeutic methods - including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness approaches, Internal Family Systems, and trauma-focused work - tailoring each plan to the needs and goals of the individual.

Her background spans community mental health agencies, outpatient counseling centers, and inpatient treatment settings, and she also spent nearly 15 years in academia which contributes to her familiarity with university life and its unique stressors. Having lived on both the east and west coasts and in urban and rural communities, she brings awareness of diverse cultural contexts to her practice.

Vicki’s style is conversational, accepting, and curious. She helps clients clarify values and strengths, offers questions and alternative perspectives, and provides resources to support progress between sessions. She does not provide treatment for active addictions, acute psychiatric conditions, active eating disorders, or self-harm. Vicki welcomes diversity and works with people across many concerns such as relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, career and life purpose issues, LGBT-related matters including gender dysphoria, caregiver and first responder stress, and challenges like bipolar mood concerns and compassion fatigue.

Vicki is licensed in Oregon - License: OR LPC C4523 - and is committed to empowering clients who are introspective, willing to engage with sometimes uncomfortable material, and ready to apply therapeutic tools outside of sessions. At this time she is not accepting clients.
