Christy Chadwick
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Ketamine-Assisted Therapy certification, Reiki Master/Teacher, Yoga Instructor, Mindfulness Practitioner, Certified EFT-tapping Practitioner, Certified Prepare-Enrich Facilitator, and Advocate for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing
My passion is in cultivating a deeper understanding of patterns and cycles that make us tick. We are all taught narratives about ourselves whether through society, culture, family, or friends. Sometimes those match, and sometimes they create an inner conflict for us. I’m all about sorting those narratives to find a more clear pathway forward for you with yourself and your relationships.
I am the founder of Inward Motion Counseling Group. An inclusive group therapy practice offering mostly virtual (and some in person) sessions throughout Oregon and Hawai’i. We are revamping the way therapy is practiced by offering extended sessions (longer) as well as shorter “check-in” sessions for established clients.

Professional Background
“If you’re looking to heal DEEPLY, like from the root –- in your heart/ gut/ bones/ soul/ mindset, DEEP healing -- Christy is absolutely for you! I found Christy after having shuffled through FIVE BetterHelp therapists for the better part of 2023, and I couldn’t be happier! Those other five therapists were predictable, and I often left sessions feeling as though I hadn’t gained any new tools, knowledge, or healing. Contrastively, Christy knows what questions to ask to get to the core of the wounds; questions I wouldn’t have ever considered. She’s the safest of safe spaces! I’ve worked with Christy for 7 months now and access the tools she’s gifted me, daily! She’s taught me so much through breathing, meditation, EFT/ tapping, reiki, inner child healing, and so much more! I can’t wait to continue our journey”
