Who is therapy for?
You may be wondering if therapy can really help. Many of my clients start there. Most people come with a hint of what’s going on for them, and a bit of mystery around something deeper. It’s normal not to know it all. I work with trauma, relationship struggles, gaslighting, family discord, micro-aggressions, identity questions, navigating systemic racism, gender identity and sexual orientation, depression, anxiety, and many other needs. If you’re looking for someone to hear your stories in your own words, help with the difficult parts, and celebrate the triumphs, let’s talk.
LGBTQIA2S+
Your life has given you the gift and the struggle of being ‘different’ from dominant culture. Whether you have known this your whole life, or are just discovering something new and beautiful about yourself, welcome! Your whole self belongs here. I have experience working with folks questioning their sexual orientation and/or gender identity, moving through all stages of social and medical gender transitions, exploring the difference between what’s ‘me’ and what’s internalized or cultural stigma, and working with marginalization. If you find yourself loving a straight or cis partner who doesn’t totally get it, blossoming into your true self for the first time in your life, or just needing a place where you’re not a problem for who you are, you are welcome here. I work with members of the queer and trans community of all ages. If you know queerness is a part of your story, I’m interested to hear it.
