Accepting BIPOC clients only. It takes courage, strength, and commitment to find and connect with a therapist, which is why I value and respect the time I spend with each and every client. I make sure that treatment is tailored to your needs and that you feel heard. My passion for therapy, in combination with my education and training, keeps me rooted in up-to-date, evidence-based practices, ensuring that I am able to provide the best possible services to our clients. At Barth Therapy, I specialize in providing services for LGBTQ+ persons, with an emphasis on transgender people of color.
I employ a variety of therapy techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness practice, narrative centered, assertiveness training, and harm reduction. My practice focuses on treating the whole person to build resilience and create positive, lasting change.
