Cascade Locks Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Lucius Wheeler

My clients are often looking for a sense of direction and perspective as they go through significant life transitions. They may feel disillusioned with their work or relationships, or struggle to let go of habits that don't serve them anymore. They have a sense that a different way is possible, but are not sure how to get there. Some are just taking the first steps towards change, and others are already on their path and want support as they learn from and integrate their experiences.

Laura Sendelbach

*Currently accepting new couples only* I work with people experiencing attachment injuries and disconnection. I view mental health symptoms within the context of prolonged disconnection from the self and others. When prolonged disconnection, suffering, and trauma occur, mental health symptoms like anxiety, depression, and those related to PTSD can arise. Those I work with often experience these symptoms, as well as shame, diminished self-worth, anger, fear, issues within relationships, etc.

Megan Campbell

I view my clients as the experts of their own lives, experience(s), and self. I believe we each carry the "answer(s)" we need most within, but are not always taught how to get there or how to tune into ourselves. During our time together, you will be given an opportunity to explore and "be with" yourself in potentially deeper and new ways. I believe the exploration of self is interwoven with the unfolding of our life.

Julie Osburne

I may be a good fit for you if you want to better understand how your unconscious experiences are influencing your day-to-day life. Through mindfulness practices (non-judgmental observation of self) and somatic awareness (mind-body connection), we discover and work through internal conflicts that may be influencing patterns in your life. I support you in untangling codependent dynamics, and experiencing greater authenticity and clarity within your relationships.

Norma Nance

While I’ve worked with clients from all different kinds of communities, I’m particularly passionate about supporting people who are working through sexual shame, navigating ethical non-monogamy, and those who identify as queer/BIPOC. I believe that community is at the core of our being. Despite that, relationships (platonic, romantic, or otherwise) are complicated. Navigating challenges that arise and staying curious can allow you to find ways to heal and discover your truth.

Izy Leighton

As a therapist, I enjoy working with a wide breadth of the human experience. I love supporting teens, adults, individuals, and partners with a broad range of concerns, including depression and anxiety, sex and relationship challenges, trauma and attachment wounding, identity exploration, and grief & loss. As a queer and intersex woman, I particularly enjoy working with other members of the LGBTQIA+ community and have intimate understanding of some challenges this community faces.

My goal is to provide a space for folks to feel accepted and to be held in nonjudgmental understanding. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, pondering gender and sexuality, wanting to bring your spirituality into sessions, or wanting a space for deep listening, I may be a good fit for you!

Eric Goodwin

You’re feeling stuck in familiar patterns of shame and self-criticism, and it’s hard to tap into your strengths when you need them most. Whether it's the weight of anxiety or the impact of prejudice and discrimination, especially toward the LGBTQ+ community, it feels overwhelming and you feel vulnerable and out-of-touch with your own voice. You’re ready for help and deserve support as you take steps toward healing and growth—you don’t have to go through this alone.

Kendra Hollingsworth

I enjoy facilitating reconnection from a place of playfulness and open curiosity. The types of clients I typically work with are those struggling with identity, family wounds, depression, anxiety, neurodivergence, LGBTQA+ issues, relational struggles, and those who do not feel they fit into a prescribed box.

Nic Sutherland

I work with clients experiencing break ups, new relationships, current and past trauma, disconnection from self and others, disconnection from creativity and meaning, or other transitions in self and situation. My clients are queer, kinky, non-monogamous, monogamous, getting together, splitting up, launching careers; if you're experiencing a new season of life, I am here to support you through it.

Blake Locher

You may feel entrenched in old, ineffective patterns that are difficult to break. You may feel confused or directionless due to unexpected crisis. You may be adjusting to a change in your physical, mental, or social abilities. Or you may feel that something is wrong without even knowing what the problem is. I provide mental health counseling for individuals in the Portland area so they can navigate these kinds of transitions and answer their inner call for change.

Sarah Sumner

I’m so glad you’re here- it takes courage to ask for help, and I’m honored to be considered. I believe that people already have exactly what they need to heal. I enjoy working with a range of clients and specialize in assisting individuals and couples who are neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and/or adult survivors of complex trauma and their partners navigate anxiety, depression, communication issues, and cultivate healthy sexuality. I am also kink/BDSM affirming and poly/ethical non-monogamy affirming.

Our clients are our priority. We see ourselves as collaborative in our approach to providing wellness to our clients. As a group practice, we are able to diversify our specialties and expertise as we work together with the client to provide the support and services that are needed. With nine clinicians in this practice, we have an array of specialties, expertise, life experiences, and individual differences that make us able to fit most of the needs a client may have.

Jaxon Shaffer

Are you looking to process trauma? Gender? Figure out what flavor of neurodivergent you are and the best ways to cope? Maybe you are in a relationship with complex identity intersectionalities that needs support. I specialize in working with gender-diverse youth and adults, queer couples, those with insecure attachment, introverts, and neurodivergent folks. I support clients grappling with minority stress, facing unique challenges and societal pressures that exacerbate mental health struggles.

Dora Angevine

You feel misunderstood or dismissed by dominant culture. People make incorrect assumptions about you all the time. You deserve so much better than that. Please don't give up hope. You don't have to go through this alone. The people I meet with are often their own unique blend of being Neurodivergent, Autistic, Trans, Gender expansive, Queer, Black, Native, or persons of culture, who have experienced trauma and anxiety due to being marginalized, abused, or assaulted.

Jennie Hagen

I love helping people look at old patterns of coping and interacting in the world, and seeing how those patterns influence their daily life. I work well with people who want to go under the surface of what's going on and look at what may be lurking underneath. This can understandably bring up some feelings of apprehension, and we will always go at a pace that feels right and safe for you. You're in the driver's seat, and I'm helping to navigate.
