Hi, I'm Noa Rimón, LMFT.
I’m a therapist, a queer and genderfluid person, an immigrant, a relational thinker, and a firm believer in the healing power of being witnessed.
I work with women and transgender folks who want to feel more connected to themselves, their relationships, and their values. My approach is collaborative and compassionate — rooted in the belief that you are the expert on your own life, and that healing happens in relationship.
My practice is grounded in care that affirms all bodies, all identities, and all forms of resistance.
I’ve supported clients through the impacts of trauma, identity exploration, grief, burnout, and relationship challenges. Before opening my private practice, I worked in community mental health settings for over a decade, providing crisis-informed behavioral care for youth and families. I’ve offered therapy in both English and Spanish, worked closely with immigrant families, and have extensive experience supporting transgender youth, adults, and their families.
My work is grounded in trauma-informed Somatic, Expressive Arts, and Narrative therapies, and influenced by EMDR and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Oregon.
Therapy with me is:
-
Warm and collaborative, not prescriptive
-
Centered on your goals, at your pace
-
Curious and non-judgmental
-
Politically and socially aware
-
Grounded in the body and the present moment
I'll be in your corner as a therapist. I won't just be quiet and nod- I pay close attention to what you're saying verbally and non-verbally, to what you want and where you want to go. I will honor your wholeness as a person, will listen without judgment, and will celebrate the ways you've survived.
I bring a deep commitment to fat liberation, disability justice, and sex worker rights, and work to uphold anti-racist, anti-oppressive, and social justice-oriented values in every part of my practice.
You don’t have to have all the words. You don’t have to figure it out first. You just have to start.

Why I Don't Take Insurance
I am not in-network with any insurance companies. Here is an article by Dr. K. Hixson if you’re interested in why therapists make the decision not to work with insurance companies:
Ten Reasons Why Your Mental Health Provider Stopped (or Never Started) Taking Your Insurance
If your insurance plan offers out-of-network coverage for mental health benefits, you may be able to submit an invoice and receive partial reimbursement for the cost of our sessions. When looking into this with your insurance company, be sure to ask if there is a deductible you must meet, and if there is a copay or percentage of the cost that you will be responsible for.
Insurance companies usually require that I give a DSM diagnosis in order to reimburse sessions. If you decide to go this route, we will have a discussion about an appropriate diagnosis before I add that to your file. I will never give a diagnosis without discussing it with you first.
