In-person and telehealth affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ teens and adults across Oregon. Whether you’re exploring your identity, navigating relationships, processing religious trauma, supporting a gender transition, or simply looking for a therapist who understands the realities of LGBTQIA+ life, we’re here to help.
A lot of LGBTQIA+ folks spend years reading the room, softening themselves, and bracing for how others might react. It is tiring, and after a while it can start to feel normal. At Rogue Holistic Therapy, we want you to feel connected with yourself, not shrink to feel safe. We slow things down, make room for all of you, and work on what is actually weighing on you.
You feel exhausted from constantly explaining yourself.
You’re questioning your gender identity, sexuality, or both.
You worry that people only accept certain parts of who you are.
You’re carrying shame from religion, culture, or family expectations.
You feel disconnected from your body or sense of self.
You’re navigating coming out and don’t know where to start.
Family relationships have become painful or complicated.
You want a therapist who understands without needing a glossary first.
Living authentically should not feel this hard. If you’ve been carrying the impact of rejection, uncertainty, shame, or the pressure to hide parts of yourself, we would love to meet you.
LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy treats your identity as a normal, healthy part of who you are, not a problem to solve. You will not be asked to teach your therapist the basics or defend your gender, your relationships, or your sense of self.
We also start from honest ground. The idea that there are only two fixed sexes does not match what biology actually shows. Identity lives on a spectrum, and most people hold more than one identity at once. Our work uses an affirming, anti-oppressive lens, which simply means we pay attention to how the world around you affects your stress, your safety, and your sense of belonging. We also know this community carries added weight and added loss, often from the outside, not from anything wrong inside you.
Affirming care is not one technique. It is the foundation underneath whatever we work on together, whether that is trauma, anxiety, identity, family, or feeling at home in your body.

Your therapist will tailor the approach to you. Depending on your needs, therapy may include a blend of body-based work, evidence-based methods, and practical supports that help change land in real life.
Identity is deeply personal, and no two journeys look alike. The LGBTQIA+ community holds a wide range of identities, relationships, and ways of moving through the world, and every one of them deserves respect and care.
Whether you have known who you are for years or you are still discovering what feels true, therapy at Rogue Holistic Therapy can be a place where you feel seen without judgment and supported without conditions. You will not have to explain or defend who you are before we begin.
Rogue Holistic Therapy was built for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or tired of carrying things alone, even if they cannot fully explain why. Some people come in knowing their history. Some just know their body does not feel safe, and life feels harder than it could. When it supports your goals, we may also integrate EMDR therapy as part of your work.
We take a steady, trauma informed approach that is practical and body based. We help you understand what is happening in your nervous system, and we give you tools you can use outside of therapy, not just things to talk about inside it.
We also keep a clear goal. Therapy helps move you forward. We are not here to “fix” you. We are here to support you while you build safety, strength, and real change in your day-to-day life. Providing you with tools you can use independently when ready.
Therapy that feels real, not performative.
Every part of you belongs here.
Compassionate, grounded care that protects dignity.
We are practical, body-based, and emotionally safe.
Support for a season, and movement toward independence.
Learn how stress and trauma shape the brain and nervous system, and map what causes escalation with language that feels clear and non-shaming.
Practice noticing early signs in the body, connecting sensations to emotions, and developing tools to help the system return to balance.
Using trauma methods that don’t require retelling everything, we focus on changing old reactions and building new patterns.
Sometimes, and only as part of established, ongoing care. We do not offer single-session or free letters. A letter supports a major step, so we want to truly know you and feel confident first. If a letter is part of your goals, tell us early and we will talk through what that looks like.

We also offer an income-based fee adjustment as low as $100 per session, meaning that some session spots are offered at reduced rates based on financial need and availability.
