LGBTQ+ Therapists in Boulder, CO

Welcome, I'm Rae and I offer short and long-term psychotherapy, transgender care support, and consulting services. I work with adults with concerns about identity, relationship issues, the rituals of dating, neurodivergence, complex trauma, existential stress, anxiety, depression, and self-growth. In our relationship, I strive to foster an authentic space where you can be unapologetically yourself at any intersection of your identity. Through our collaboration together, I can help you gain insight into your feelings, modify behaviors, consolidate your narrative, or examine your worldview.

Whether you have years of experience or this is your first time considering it, therapy can seem daunting and scary. However, I am here to affirm that you are taking an important, brave step towards feeling healed, fulfilled, and satisfied in life. Some describe my style as warm, sincere, and (sometimes) humorous with purposeful, safe challenge. Our time together will be a safe space to work and challenge certain thoughts and behaviors that may not be serving you in achieving your goals. I offer compassion, support, and gentle collaboration in discovering your needs, desires, fears, and most true self.

As a queer BIPOC individual, my passion is working with other individuals, relationships, and family systems of the queer and or BIPOC community. If you grew up in a culture that viewed mental health as taboo, you may be feeling alone and hopeless. Know that you are not alone in your journey. I believe that people and relationships can thrive if given the proper support, nourishment, and environment. We are all given the same tools, but how helpful can it be if we were never taught how to use them? With some direction, non-judgement, and unconditional positive regard I believe people are capable of incredible things.

I use EMDR therapy to heal the roots of depression, anxiety, and histories of trauma. I also provide mindfulness and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed counseling for anxiety and depression. I provide affirming counseling relationships for LGBTQ + clients, and folx of all gender, sexuality, and relationship expressions. I have significant experience working with clients looking to heal trauma, LGBTQ + clients, non-monogamous clients, neurodiverse clients (ADHD, Highly Sensitive Persons), empaths, and clients experiencing chronic anxiety, depression, intergenerational trauma, and concerns around spirituality.

I believe one of the bravest things we can do is begin to understand our own story. Vulnerability can be one of the scariest, most liberating, and empowering acts, and undoubtedly takes courage - so I commend you for being here, wherever you are in your process.

Sometimes the state of our world can feel so scary and heartbreaking that we feel immobilized. Much of our potential is blocked by feeling overwhelmed by the day to day challenge of struggling to advocate for ourselves in our communities, the world, even in our own thoughts and beliefs! It is easy to feel anxious, alone and simultaneously at war with ourselves. I emphasize serving individuals that experience marginalized identities and see myself as your co-conspirator. I work with issues of identity and non-normative experiences, in the context of gender, sexuality as well as queer experience beyond that framework

Whether you are working through anxiety, trauma, or need specialized support as a part of the LGBTQIA + community, I would like to support you on your journey.

From navigating relationships, careers, identity, politics, culture; adulting is no small task for a person of any age..... let alone navigating overwhelming emotions, eating, sleeping and trauma on top of the energy it takes to get by on a daily basis. Some part of your life maybe feels elusive and takes a lot of extra energy...like being able to stay in relationships, be at peace in your body or satisfied with how you present yourself to the world. Therapy can be a helpful place to sort through all the messages that are unhelpful and get clear on what your real needs are.

Finding an authentic way to be ourselves in an incongruent time isn’t easy. Yet I believe that we are all entitled to do just that–to be ourselves in all our messy, creative, unfinished, work-in-progress glory. Creativity, movement, mindfulness, and nature, are all things we may draw on in our work together. I am passionate about working with members of the LGBTQIA + community and view all of my work through an intersectional lens. I am also passionate about working with elders, neurodiverse folks, and those grieving a loss or facing a scary health diagnosis. If you’re ready to get started, I’m ready to meet you along the way.

I specialize in working with queer and trans individuals navigating significant life transitions, relationship conflict, or a harsh inner critic. Through my training in and passions for gender affirming care, sex therapy, healthy relationships, and sexual identity exploration, I welcome all your identities and experiences into the room. If you feel motivated to take steps toward positive change, ready to ask the difficult questions, and even willing to sit in moments of discomfort and uncertainty along the way, we might be a great fit for working together. Don't worry, there will be plenty of laughter along the way too!
