Bisexual Therapists in Los Angeles, CA
To quote Darcie Wilder, "literally show me a healthy person." With trauma and injustice rampant in our world, anxiety, sadness, and relationship challenges are par for the course. That being said, I know it's not easy to bear. My hope is to offer non-judgemental support as we deconstruct the patterns that are no longer serving you and explore ways of creating the life you want despite it all. I particularly enjoy working those who find themselves questioning what normality, success, beauty, or even health mean to them. These are some of life's biggest questions and they're worth sitting with.

I believe that it takes great courage to take that first step in reaching out for help, whether you are coming from a place of sadness, anxiety, loneliness, grief, or confusion.

As an online trauma therapist and psychologist, I help survivors build deep inner safety, process painful histories, and reclaim a life of genuine meaning and purpose. If you are navigating Complex PTSD (CPTSD), Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), Depersonalization-Derealization (DP/DR), or Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), a life worth living can often feel unattainable. You might simply be trying to survive day-to-day. But true recovery is possible.

Sometimes it feels like your brain is stuck on overdrive — replaying conversations, fixating on what-ifs, or spiraling into worst-case scenarios. Maybe you're constantly second-guessing yourself, juggling a million tabs in your mind, or trying to keep up with expectations that don’t quite fit. On the outside, you might seem fine. On the inside, you’re overwhelmed and exhausted. I work with adults navigating anxiety, OCD, ADHD, perfectionism, burnout, and the quiet pressure of always having to hold it together.

As a trans and queer neurodivergent Arab immigrant, I recognize how social identities can greatly impact someone's mental health. Even navigating the mental health system can be exhausting and at times disappointing. In my practice, I aim to provide a safe space for people who often struggle to find one due to systemic and social injustices. I assist people in the healing of their trauma and processing difficult experiences as they navigate living in a society that is in itself in need of healing. I am passionate about my work and love being present with my clients through their journey of healing and self-discovery.

Your internal dialogue is dominated by the voice of your inner critic, who oppresses you in its attempt to create the life of success you feel you’re always falling short of. Your nervous system is frayed, but even the thought of downtime gives you guilt because you silently pride yourself on being responsible, not only for yourself, but also for everyone else you care for. Your relationships feel overwhelming because you’re terrified of being rejected if you were to reveal your vulnerable parts. You’re ready for something to change on a deeper level, so that you can finally accept yourself and be known fully by others too.

Whether you're questioning your sexual or gender identity or have been out for years, a therapist who understands you is key to successful therapy. We learn about ourselves through relationships and sometimes what we learned in the past isn’t helpful for us in the present. Trauma, abuse, neglect and microaggressions can teach us that we don’t deserve to have the career, relationships, sexual intimacy, or life that we want. This happens all too often with queer & trans people, especially BIPOC. Without conscious awareness, these lessons may cause us to sabotage ourselves or our relationships, but it’s never too late to unlearn them!

Hello and welcome! I’m Theadora (she/her). I am a compassionate, affirming and collaborative therapist, guided by a liberatory, social justice and trauma-informed framework. As a mixed/multicultural (Mexican/white), queer (bi/pan), neurodivergent, cis woman who lives with chronic pain, I honor the importance of being seen in the fullness of all our intersecting identities and the ways our identities have influenced our lives as an essential component of a supportive, therapy relationship.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or wanting assistance with a specific issue, I commend you for taking a step towards finding support. You may be adjusting to a recent life event, wanting a better relationship with a significant other, or feeling understandably hopeless/outraged/fearful about our global landscape.
I’m here to listen, to be curious about you & to offer you my observations & feedback. I aim to help you reduce stress, find peace & clarity, and remove any roadblocks in the way of you living your best life. “Best,” is subjective, therefore part of our work together may be figuring out what that means for you

Bisexual Therapists
What is bisexual-affirming therapy?
Bisexual-affirming therapy is a type of mental health support that fully affirms and reflects a client’s bisexual identity. It is rooted in acceptance and does not attempt to change or question an individual’s orientation. In this type of therapy, clients work with a therapist who understands the unique experiences of bisexual people. This support is especially important, as research shows that bisexual individuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation compared to other groups. Bisexual-affirming therapy acknowledges that bisexual individuals may encounter specific stressors—such as invalidation, relationship challenges, and minority stress—that require specialized understanding and intervention. Many therapists also provide couples therapy for bisexual partners, helping them navigate relationship dynamics, communication challenges, or external stressors that may impact their relationship. While not required, some clients prefer working with bisexual therapists who may bring personal insight to the therapeutic relationship. However, a non-bisexual therapist with strong training and a genuine commitment to affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who understands how identity impacts mental health and can create a space of trust and respect.
What can a bisexual therapist help with?
Bisexual-affirming therapists can provide support across a wide range of concerns relevant to bisexual individuals. Whether through personal or professional experience, they often have specialized knowledge in areas such as the coming out process, navigating stereotypes, and dealing with common stressors. Relationship support is another key area of focus, as bisexual clients may face unique challenge when dating or maintaining relationships across genders. Affirming therapists can also help clients build coping strategies for managing discrimination or stigma. Additionally, many bisexual-affirming therapists can connect clients to other providers or community-based resources—such as bisexual support groups or LGBTQ+ organizations—that offer additional affirming spaces for connection. It's important to note that therapists provide can talk therapy and counseling services but do not prescribe medication—if medication is needed for conditions like depression or anxiety, they will coordinate care with a psychiatrist or primary care physician who can provide psychiatric medication management alongside therapeutic support.
How do I find a bisexual therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for finding bisexual-affirming therapists. You can use search filters to identify therapists who specialize in LGBTQ+ care and work specifically with bisexual clients. You can also filter by clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, accepted insurance, session costs, and languages spoken to find the right fit. During initial consultations or early sessions, ask potential therapists about their specific training in bisexual-affirming care, their experience with LGBTQ+ clients, and their therapeutic approach to identity-related concerns. An effective bisexual-affirming therapist will demonstrate genuine understanding of bisexual experiences, including awareness of the unique challenges facing bisexual individuals. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
