We all go through times of sef-doubt, depression and anxiety. Life change can amplify these. I believe all feelings are valid, because we are feeling them. What we think about them can be harmful or helpful in a situation. Being very present creates calm as we are in the situation as it happens rather than in the past or future thinking about what we did or will do. This practice strengthens relationships as well as offers personal insight and growth. My job as the therapist is to allow my clients a place to explore the space in their heads. I help clients accept and understand their emotions creating new behavior patterns.

Are you coping with trauma? Was your birth traumatic but you don't want to complain because "it could have been worse?" Have you gone through a rape or abuse and while everyone means well, they just don't get it? Is your mood all over the place and you are tired of feeling this way? Trauma can leave you feeling alone, unsure and frightened; it might be hard on your relationships or you might be avoiding things because of intrusive thoughts or emotions that come up.

The purpose of this glorious life is not simply to endure it, but to soar, stumble and thrive as you learn to fall in love with your human experience. We were born to live, not to merely exist. It is my job to help you explore the deepest recesses of yourself, to discover what is holding you back from living a happy, present, soulful experience. I'm here to help your mind, body and soul thrive! I particularly enjoy working with mothers transitioning into the new identity of motherhood. Becoming a mother is monumental, and support in the journey is essential to help you thrive rather than simply survive.

I work best with women and LGBTQ+ individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, chronic pain, or the emotional impact of health concerns. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, dismissed, disconnected from themselves, or exhausted from trying to hold everything together. They may be used to being the strong one, pushing through, or putting their own needs aside. Together, we work to better understand emotions, heal from difficult experiences, build healthier boundaries, and create a life that feels more grounded, authentic, and fulfilling.

When we're feeling deeply lonely or overwhelmed by intense emotions, reaching out to others can feel like the last thing we're capable of. And yet, these are often the very moments when finding someone safe to talk to — without fear of judgment or rejection — matters most. I work with individuals around attachment and relationship concerns, trauma, anxiety, depression, and the complexities of gender, aging, race, class, and sexuality. If an area of your life feels distressing or in transition, let’s explore it together. I welcome individuals seeking relief from shame or difficult change.

You really want to connect deeply with your partner(s), but it feels impossible to navigate what you want, plus what they want, plus all the other demands in your life. It seems easier to just focus on what other people want – your own needs can wait (except they really can’t). You're scared there might not be a way forward, that asking for what you need might cause a fight, or come off as selfish. But you're hopeful that, with professional support, you can find the confidence to ask for the sexual and emotional intimacy you've been missing. You hope to find a way out of resignation, to a vibrant, sexy life with the people you love.

What is lesbian-affirming therapy?
Lesbian-affirming therapy is a type of mental health support that fully affirms and reflects a client's lesbian identity. It is rooted in acceptance and does not attempt to change or question an individual's sexual orientation. In this type of therapy, clients work with a therapist who understands the unique experiences of lesbian women. This support is especially important, as research shows that lesbian individuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges compared to heterosexual populations. Lesbian-affirming therapy acknowledges that lesbian individuals may encounter specific stressors—such as coming out challenges, family rejection, workplace discrimination, and minority stress—that require specialized understanding and intervention. Lesbian-affirming therapists often work with clients across all age groups, from adolescents navigating their emerging identity to adults and older individuals addressing life transitions and relationship concerns. Many therapists also provide couples therapy for lesbian partners, helping them navigate relationship dynamics, communication challenges, or external stressors that may impact their relationship. It is important to note that therapists provide 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.

Why should I see a lesbian therapist?
Some clients prefer to work with lesbian therapists who may bring personal lived experience to the therapeutic relationship. Choosing to work with a lesbian therapist can offer a deeper sense of connection, comfort, and shared understanding. A therapist who identifies as lesbian may require clients to give less background explanation—whether it’s about navigating romantic relationships, feeling unseen in certain spaces, or processing the impact of past relationship challenges. However, a non-lesbian therapist with strong training and a sincere commitment to LGBTQ+ affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who respects your identity and fosters trust, safety, and understanding. However, a non-lesbian therapist with strong training and a sincere commitment to LGBTQ+ affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who respects your identity and fosters trust, safety, and understanding. Additionally, many lesbian-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.

How do I find a lesbian therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for finding lesbian-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. Look for profiles where therapists explicitly mention working with lesbian clients, or where they describe their approach as identity-affirming, inclusive, or trauma-informed. Many providers will also list their own identities, which may help you find someone with shared lived experience if that is important to you. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
