Community Counseling Center

Empowering families to build on individual and collective strengths to attain their goals through research-based relational, solution-oriented, and collaborative therapy.

Our History

In 1959, Catholic Community Services opened the Community Counseling Center (CCC), the first outpatient community mental health clinic in the Mid-Willamette Valley. We serve our community’s vulnerable children, youth, adults and families suffering from mental health issues.

OUR GOAL

Empowered People

At CCC, we encourage the involvement of parents and significant others in one’s life whenever possible and involve families in treatment plan development. It is our goal to build on each family’s unique strengths to help them raise healthy, empowered children who live self-determined and self-fulfilling lives.

Here, we support and empower individuals and families to build on their competencies, resiliencies, and preferences to achieve goals that they define; services are often provided in concert with other community partners involved with the family.

WHO WE ARE

Our Therapists & Staff

Our caring staff is committed to strengthening families and helping children and youth succeed at school, at home and with their peers. Our services often reduce the risk of a child’s removal from the home, hospitalizations, and other higher levels of care.

We are committed to delivering evidence-based services, proven to be effective, in an environment of caring and respect.

Danielle Baxter, MA, LMFT, QMHP 

Marriage & Family Therapist & Clinical Director 

Hello and welcome! I believe that people already have the strength, resilience, and solutions to help them navigate through their lives. I view therapy as a collaborative journey to promote growth and enhance overall quality of life. My therapeutic approach is intended to help you explore what is already working for you and help you build on the strengths you already possess. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, and I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families with a variety of issues and from a variety of social locations.  I respect and affirm people of all sexualities, genders, and races. 

Utilizing a systemic, strength-based, solution-focused approach I support clients struggling with issues including PTSD, Depression, ADHD, and anxiety. With children age 2-6 I specialize in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), a therapy that helps enhance attachment and support children experiencing behavioral and/or emotional difficulties. 

Therapy can be a daunting but rewarding process. My focus is to provide a safe and respectful environment to promote growth and change. You are the expert in your life and together we will explore exception patterns and work towards your goals. 

 

Morgan Davis, MA, LMFT, QMHP 

Marriage & Family Therapist

I’m so glad you’re here! Starting a therapeutic journey can feel overwhelming and daunting. Life is full of transitions, both joyous and difficult and despite the nature of the transition it can create levels of anxiety, relational conflict, and/or hardship. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, and I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families with a variety of issues and from a variety of social locations. 

I practice a solution-focused therapy approach that assists us in finding strengths and patterns of resilience within individuals and family. I do this with trauma informed care and a social justice lens. 

You are the expert of your life and we will explore exception patterns and build on those as you see fit. Therapy can be a rewarding for those who commit to the process. Through our work together my hope is to assist you in living the life you desire!
