You’ve been holding it together for a while now. Smiling when you’re unsure. Powering through when you’re running on empty. Saying “I’m fine” when things feel anything but fine. It can feel like everyone else got the manual for life and you're stuck guessing. The pressure to make the “right” choices—about school, jobs, relationships—can feel constant and exhausting. Therapy with me is a place where you don’t have to perform, prove, or explain things that feel too big or too blurry. We slow things down. We name what’s really going on. We figure out what matters to you.

FAQ - LGBTQ+ Psychiatrists
What are the advantages of seeing an LGBTQ-friendly psychiatrist?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions using a combination of therapy and medication. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is essential for effective treatment. For many LGBTQ+ individuals, working with a psychiatrist who understands or shares aspects of their identity can be an important part of feeling safe, heard, and respected in care. Providers familiar with LGBTQ+ experiences may be better equipped to address minority stress, identity development, gender dysphoria, coming out processes, family rejection, discrimination, and other concerns that uniquely affect LGBTQ+ communities and can impact mental health treatment.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly psychiatrist?
Psychology Today’s online directory is a useful resource that allows you to filter for psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) based on their experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals. You can look for providers who identify as LGBTQ+ themselves or who mention LGBTQ+ affirming care in their profiles. Consider looking for key indicators such as use of inclusive language, experience with gender-affirming care, or a focus on trauma-informed and identity-centered approaches. It’s also important to consider practical details, such as whether the provider offers telehealth, their therapeutic style, and whether they accept your insurance.
