Inclusive Identity-Affirming Therapy
for Couples & Individuals in Oregon
centering BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, trauma-informed, and non-traditional relationship experiences
Hi, I’m Chepo!
I’m glad you’re here.
Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re looking for someone who truly values your lived experience. You deserve a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported—where your experiences and history are acknowledged and welcomed. That’s what I strive to offer at Roots of Resilience Therapy.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, processing trauma, navigating relationships, or exploring your identity, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and curiosity.
I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, anti-racist, sex positive, kink positive, and body positive.
Virtual & In-Person Therapy Services
-
Individual Therapy - $180
It's hard to feel like you're enough when you're struggling, in your relationships, or in trusting yourself, especially when the spaces around you weren't made with you in mind.
I draw on Internal Family Systems (IFS, Level 1 Certified) to tend to your internal parts, Brainspotting to help you access and process somatic memories, and Relational Life Therapy (RLT) alongside culturally attuned approaches that honor your history, identities and lived experience. Together we'll deepen self-awareness, grow from past wounds, and build practical tools to navigate life's complexities.

Relationship & Couples Therapy - $250
Strengthen communication, navigate conflict, heal from repair and deepen connection using clear, skill-based tools from Relational Life Therapy paired with consent-forward practices for consensual non-monogamy. We’ll clarify boundaries, craft agreements that work for your relationship structure, practice honest repair and accountability, and build the emotional and relational skills you need to feel safer and more connected. Sessions are 90 minutes, giving us the time and depth your relationship deserves.
Cultural & Identity Affirming Care
A safe space for BIPOC, LGTBQAI+, queer, non-monogamous, and neurodivergent folks.
Flexible Options for Virtual & In-Person Sessions
Access therapy in the way you need it, whether at home or in office.
Rooted in Growth & Liberation
A holistic, systems-aware approach to self reflection and healing.
Therapy That Centers You
Life can be a lot—especially when you're juggling personal growth, work, and relationships, while dealing with trauma and systemic barriers that weren’t built with you in mind. Therapy is about more than just talking; it’s about reclaiming your story, discovering what helps you thrive, and building resilience on your terms.
Drawing on person-centered, trauma-informed, and mindful approaches, we’ll explore how you show up in relationships and daily life. We’ll also examine how past experiences shape your present, focusing on healing, growth, and genuine support.
If cost feels like a barrier, I reserve a limited number of sliding-scale sessions for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and low-income clients and relationships; my full-fee rates help fund these subsidized spots.
