When Talk Therapy and Medication Aren’t Quite Enough: Another Way to Support Your Mental Health
If you’ve tried talk therapy, medication—or both—and still feel like something isn’t quite clicking, you’re not alone. Many people reach a point where they understand their patterns, have tools to cope, and are doing “all the right things”… yet still feel stuck. Maybe your mind knows what to do, but your body doesn’t seem to follow. O

Where Neurofeedback Fits in Mental Health Care: A Complement, Not a Replacement
Mental health care is evolving. Today, more providers are recognizing that lasting change often requires supporting not just thoughts and behaviors—but the underlying patterns of the nervous system itself.

What LPC Associates Should Look for in a Clinical Supervisor

The relationship matters — not just what your supervisor knows, but how they work with you, what they prioritize, and

The Queer Body Remembers: Somatic-Focused Trauma Healing
For many LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning) people growing up was distressing due to homophobia and transphobia. Schools felt like a scary place for those who were scapegoated as queer. LGBTQ people of color reported even worse experiences due to the additional stress of racism and racial bullying. Many of the gay men’s personal narratives that I have he
As of April 2026, 51 trauma-informed therapists are listed on Oregon Counselor Directory, catering to residents across Oregon. These professionals offer a range of care options, with 45 providing telehealth services, enabling individuals in both rural and urban settings to access therapy remotely. Of these, 16 therapists accept the Oregon Health Plan (OHP), which is Oregon's Medicaid program, potentially covering therapy sessions at little or no cost depending on the client's plan. Additionally, 31 therapists offer sliding scale fees, which can accommodate clients with varying income levels. The majority, 49 therapists, are currently accepting new clients, and 43 offer in-person sessions.
