Mental health and substance use together
Depression, anxiety and trauma often show up alongside substance use, and SAMHSA data show higher rates of mental illness among lesbian, gay and bisexual adults. Treating both at once usually works better than treating them separately.
If that sounds familiar, look at LGBTQ dual diagnosis treatment.
What gay-friendly rehab looks like
Gay-friendly rehab is still rehab: detox if you need it, therapy, groups, and an aftercare plan. What changes is that your relationships, social life and identity are part of the conversation instead of something you edit out.

Using your insurance
Before you call a program, have your insurance card ready and ask three things: is the program in network, does this level of care need prior authorization, and what will you owe after the deductible. Our insurance guides walk through major carriers.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
Are these rehabs only for gay men?
No. They report programming for LGBTQ clients and for adult men, but most serve a mixed population. Ask each one how its groups are organized.
What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
Will my information stay private?
Federal rules (42 CFR Part 2) give substance use treatment records extra confidentiality protections beyond standard health privacy law. Ask any program how it handles your records and who can see them.
Is there gay-friendly residential rehab inside Portland?
We don't list one inside Portland itself, but the closest programs within driving distance are listed on this page.
