Even living in progressive California, being part of the LGBTQ+ community can be beautiful, exciting, challenging, and heartbreaking which makes finding a LGBTQ+ friendly therapist that much more important. You might be questioning your sexuality. You might wonder where you fit in. You might simultaneously love your queer life, but feel like an outsider from your biological family or the rest of the world. You might be mislabeled or misgendered by others and it’s painful to not be seen for who you are. Being part of the LGBTQ+ community might only be one part of who you are and it might not be why you’re coming to therapy at all.
As a queer therapist, we'll work together to decide what you want therapy to look like. I often use humor, empathy, honest conversations, brainspotting (a powerful trauma-informed technique) and body based work. Together we can strengthen and develop your relationship with yourself, so that the chaos of the world doesn’t feel so heavy.
I work best with people who are tired of being unhappy and people who want to change their patterns even when it’s downright terrifying to do so. I currently offer online sessions via video along with outdoor sessions as well. Please reach out for a free 20 minute consultation.
