Therapy

My Specialty

Dr. Meredith Kalies is a Clinical Psychologist specializing in helping queer people forge deeper and more connected relationships to themselves and the people they love. Dr. Kalies provide individual therapy and relationship therapy for couples and polycules.  She is affirming of ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, and the spectrum of relational, gender, and sexual identities.

Who I Work With

I work with queer adults ages 18+in Oregon and Tennessee, and I specialize in helping individuals, couples, and polycules of all backgrounds and identities navigate interpersonal dynamics, grief, trauma, and the impact of oppressive systems on their relationships to self and others. My goal is to help you access your depth of emotional experience to live a more authentic life.

The Therapeutic Process

I use an integrative and exploratory approach to therapy, which combines relational, depth, internal family systems, emotion-focused, somatic, and mindfulness-based approaches.

I do not participate in ableist compliance-based behavioral therapies and prefer to tailor therapy to support the specific needs of each client.

Gender Affirming Care

I provide evaluations and letters of support for gender affirming care including HRT and gender affirming surgery according to WPATH SOC 8 guidelines. The letters and consultation appointment are provided on a sliding scale ranging from $35-250
