Howdy!

I’m Chloe Ackerman, a psychologist in Portland, Oregon.

A note

Please keep in mind: I’m a psychologist, but I’m not your psychologist. Reading Dog Lover’s Guide to Feeling Better does not constitute a client-therapist relationship. I am unable to answer specific personal mental health questions. Thank you for understanding!
