Are you an LGBTQIA+ person or ally (18 years or older) in the state of Ohio? Are you experiencing increased loneliness, shame or fear? Are you questioning your gender or sexual identity, but it’s hard to know where a safe space is to explore this right now? Are you a queer and/or trans parent, or considering starting a family, but feeling overwhelmed and possibly unsafe by the process right now? Maybe the increased stress is leading you to use or drink more, and you’d like to better understand this?
As a queer therapist, and parent, also living in Ohio, I see you. In a safe, confidential space, we'll work together to build resilience, despite the injustices around us. I will help you develop a deeper self-understanding and create an authentic life aligned with who you truly are, so that you can live the joyful, fulfilling life you deserve.
I currently provide telehealth therapy to residents anywhere in Ohio. Check out my website (link near the bottom of this page) to learn more about me. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute phone or video consultation—I'm ready to get to know the true you!
