A Space Where All of You Is Welcome
As a queer therapist, I provide a safe and affirming space for all members of the LGBTQIA+ community across the full range of sexual orientations, gender identities, and relationship structures. I am poly- and kink-informed, which means you don't have to explain or justify your relationships or identity before we can get to the real work.
Many LGBTQIA+ clients come to therapy carrying the weight of minority stress - the chronic strain of navigating discrimination, family rejection, or simply having to code-switch or stay guarded in spaces that don't feel safe. That weight can show up as anxiety, depression, difficulty trusting others, or disconnection from your own body and identity.
What We Might Work On Together
-
Navigating coming out, gender exploration, or transition at your own pace, on your own terms
-
Healing from family rejection, religious trauma, or internalized shame
-
Processing minority stress, microaggressions, or discrimination
-
Exploring identity, relationships, and intimacy without judgment, including polyamorous, kink, or other non-normative relationship structures
-
Building resilience and community connection as a queer or trans person of color
My Approach
I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and Parts-based approaches with a deep respect for the complexity of queer and trans experience. Healing isn't about fitting into someone else's mold of who you should be, it's about reconnecting with who you already are, and building a life that reflects that truth.
I'm honored to walk alongside you on this path. If you're ready to start, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.
