LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapists in Tallahassee, FL
No insurance - If you’re not having sex, or not talking about it, your relationship is signaling that something needs attention. And if you’re running on fumes, disconnected from friends, overwhelmed by work, or avoiding your partner’s texts, your nervous system is telling a similar story. Different symptoms, same underlying system.

I became a Marriage and Family Therapist because I enjoy processing with individuals and listening to personal journeys to find a resolution. I was a High School performance art major and find this skill set benefical in providing supports through visual cues using various therapeutic approaches and modalities. I specialize in working with children and families in child welfare. I enjoy working with young children and teens as these are challenging developmental years, trauma and distress from systemic and familial patterns of behaviors, coupled with low parenting, coping, decision-making and problem-solving skills.

I believe one of the most important parts of therapy is the relationship we build together. Feeling safe, seen, and supported is the foundation of trauma work.

I specialize in helping individuals with complex PTSD (C-PTSD), anxiety, depression, and chronic stress reconnect with their bodies, rediscover their worth, and find relief from persistent symptoms like hypervigilance, emotional numbness, addiction, and codependency.

Everyone turns to you for help.... your patients, your colleagues, your family. But lately, it’s all become way too much. You’re drained, emotionally raw, and caught up in cycles of anxiety and guilt. You used to love your work, but now, you’re running on fumes.

As a queer, first-gen, Asian (Filipinx) immigrant, I understand the importance of strengthening your relationship with your Self, deconstructing harmful narratives, and finding sense of belonging.
I center decolonial and abolitionist theories within my therapeutic approach in working with queer and/or trans People of the Global Majority and their intersecting marginalized identities. Most of my clients are working through intergenerational/systemic trauma, family dynamics/conflict, attachment concerns, and self-liberation, among others.

Whether you're exploring identity, navigating relationships, or processing family dynamics, therapy can offer a supportive space to do this work. My approach is warm, collaborative, and affirming. I’m here to support you in creating intentional shifts that reflect your values vision for life.

I am queer, non-judgmental, and semi-hip.
You find yourself constantly avoiding triggers, unable to go certain places or do things that remind you of your unresolved hurt - a lost relationship, childhood abandonment, the death of someone you love dearly. You feel limited and held back by your painful past. You get sucked into self help videos on Tik-Tok looking for a solution and find yourself feeling empty after hours of scrolling. Together we can face the past head on. I guide clients to work through past hurt and do the work to heal. My clients finish therapy confident, emotionally healthy, and free to move forward into a hopeful future.

Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.
Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.
Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
