If you are searching for insight and depth, you’re in the right place. My name is Adrian (he/him), and I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in working with transgender, gender non-conforming, and queer adults and teens. My practice is centered on supporting individuals facing questions of gender exploration, sexuality, identity formation, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and interpersonal conflict.
My work is LGBTQ+ affirming, relationship diverse, trauma-informed, sex-positive, kink-aware, and from a harm-reduction perspective. I use a collaborative, person-centered Psychodynamic approach. I also incorporate elements of Narrative Therapy and IFS to support individual needs.
Our therapy space is a place to share your experiences safely and have them received empathetically. I will support you with warmth and compassion in the process of understanding and reconstructing your life story. Together, we will navigate the challenges of the past t build a satisfied life in the present. It is an honor to be a part of your journey.
