LGBTQ+ Therapy Services

Many of us learned in various ways to disconnect from our bodies and emotions, and may have learned that relationships are not safe. Using an attachment-focused, relational approach, I create a safe place for you to bring your whole self to therapy and reconnect with resilience, joy, pleasure, and presence.

 

As a dedicated LGBTQ therapist, I specialize in providing supportive, affirming therapy tailored to the unique needs of the queer and trans community. My approach is rooted in understanding and empathy, helping you navigate your challenges and growth areas.

​

Individual Therapy

​

Trauma

Trauma has social, physical and physiological, relational, spiritual, and emotional impacts that often carry forward into many aspects of our lives. I'm here to support you in integrating past experiences, grieving, and connecting more deeply with yourself and others in the present. 

​

Grief and Life Transitions

College. Divorce. Career change. Death of a loved one. Parenthood. Coming into queerness/coming out as LGBTQ+. Significant life transitions are a unique time, often filled with grief, confusion, self-doubt, hope, excitement, and more. Whatever transition you are moving through, I am here to support you in moving through your journey with intentionality, self-compassion, and authenticity. 

 

Gender Identity And Gender Exploration

Whether you are exploring your own experience of gender, navigating social, medical, and/or legal transition, moving through family or workplace challenges, or working with gender incongruence or body image concerns, I am here to support you on your gender journey. 

​

Sex and Sexuality

Perhaps you are exploring your relationship with sex, sexuality, your body, or kink. Or perhaps you are navigating the impacts of sexual trauma, religious trauma, stress, depression, or negative body image on your relationship with your sexuality. You may be coming into your queerness or experiencing shame around your sexuality. Whatever areas of sex and sexuality you are navigating, I am here to support you in building an empowered and embodied relationship with your sexuality.  ​​

​

Parenting Support 

 

Parenting LGBTQIA+ Children

Whether you are seeking to better understand and support your child, process your own emotions or fears, or ask difficult questions, I am here to support you in parenting purposefully, authentically, and in line with your values. 

​

Queer Parenting

Perhaps you are feeling lonely or isolated in your journey as a queer parent. Maybe you are exploring the idea of having kids or are trying to conceive. Perhaps you are a parent who is working to interrupt generational trauma, or a parent with more openness, safety, caring, and attunement than you were parented with. I am here to support you wherever you are on your queer parenting journey! ​

​

Conscious Parenting and Healing Intergenerational Trauma

Parenting with mindfulness and awareness can transform both your relationship with your child and with yourself. Our work together can help you identify and break cycles of intergenerational trauma and parent with intention, in alignment with your values. By addressing your own trauma, strengthening emotional regulation, setting boundaries with love and respect, and fostering love and connection within your family, we'll work together to heal past wounds and create healthier, more loving relationships with your children.

​​

Relationship Therapy

Interpersonal dynamics can be challenging, and we often find ourselves stuck in patterns of communication and cycles of conflict and behavior that don't serve us. I work with couples, polycules, friends, siblings, and more to address pain points within relationships and increase connection and fulfillment, and build relationships rooted in love and respect.  

​

Deepening Emotional Connection & Moving Through Conflict 

Support to strengthen emotional intimacy, improve understanding, deepen empathy and vulnerability, approach difficult conversations, and resolve conflicts constructively, fostering a more fulfilling relationship.

​

Polyamory/Non-Monogamy

Whether you are beginning to explore non-monogamy/polyamory, figuring out what works for you, examining relationship values and needs, navigating relationship transitions, working with trauma impacts, or discovering new parts of yourself, I am here to support you in moving through your non-monogamy journey. ​

​

Life Transitions

Whether a career change, move, becoming parents, gender transition, significant loss, or other changes, life transitions have significant impacts on our relationships. I'm here to support you in moving through change and strengthening bonds in challenging times.
