Stress is everywhere, especially with the challenges of the last few years. You might not be feeling like yourself. You could be feeling off, sluggish, misdirected, or overwhelmed. You could be looking to make some shifts in your life, and hopefully grow following a potentially difficult stretch. Change is never easy, but you may be searching for it. You feel it's time for you to set some boundaries, figure out what you truly need, and put ideas into action. Starting therapy can be challenging, and I applaud anyone who takes that step to move forward and give it a try.

You're high-functioning, emotionally aware, and exhausted by patterns you can't seem to break — in your relationships, in how you love, in how much you give and how little you allow yourself to receive. Maybe you've read the books, done the journaling, and still find yourself here: stuck in the same loops, longing for something to finally shift at the root.
My approach is slow, embodied, and deeply relational. I work with what lives beneath the surface — the unconscious patterns, survival strategies, and attachment wounds shaping how you show up in love and in life. Together, we don't just manage what's hard. We transform it.

If you are gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, gender nonconforming, or identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community, it's important that you find someone with lived experience.
If you're neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, bipolar, OCD, anxiety, etc), you know what it's like to live in a world that tells you that you're "different." I know how hard that can be. If you're ND (or think you might be), let's connect. My goal is to help my ND clients learn how their brain works, how to befriend their own brain, and how to find fulfillment.

My aim is to reward that courage by collaboratively working with clients towards reaching their goals. My methods are individually tailored to each client based on their needs. My therapists are trained as generalists and work wide array of issues ranging from stress management, chronic medical conditions, life transitions, and gender affirmations to more severe concerns such as trauma. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adults. I use the Informed Consent Model for gender-affirming surgery letters. Email us!

Is sex stressing you out? If you're like most folks, sex ed was probably limited to basic school seminars, awkward talks with caregivers, and unrealistic standards set by adult films. Is it any wonder you feel anxious or confused trying to navigate your sex life without clear directions? We wouldn't expect someone with limited mechanical knowledge to diagnose car problems, yet we often feel shame about our sex drive and performance, despite never being given tools to address them. That's where I come in. I help you peek under the hood and identify the issues that are keeping you stuck so you can move from panic to pleasure.

Bisexual Therapists
What is bisexual-affirming therapy?
Bisexual-affirming therapy is a type of mental health support that fully affirms and reflects a client’s bisexual identity. It is rooted in acceptance and does not attempt to change or question an individual’s orientation. In this type of therapy, clients work with a therapist who understands the unique experiences of bisexual people. This support is especially important, as research shows that bisexual individuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation compared to other groups. Bisexual-affirming therapy acknowledges that bisexual individuals may encounter specific stressors—such as invalidation, relationship challenges, and minority stress—that require specialized understanding and intervention. Many therapists also provide couples therapy for bisexual partners, helping them navigate relationship dynamics, communication challenges, or external stressors that may impact their relationship. While not required, some clients prefer working with bisexual therapists who may bring personal insight to the therapeutic relationship. However, a non-bisexual therapist with strong training and a genuine commitment to affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who understands how identity impacts mental health and can create a space of trust and respect.
What can a bisexual therapist help with?
Bisexual-affirming therapists can provide support across a wide range of concerns relevant to bisexual individuals. Whether through personal or professional experience, they often have specialized knowledge in areas such as the coming out process, navigating stereotypes, and dealing with common stressors. Relationship support is another key area of focus, as bisexual clients may face unique challenge when dating or maintaining relationships across genders. Affirming therapists can also help clients build coping strategies for managing discrimination or stigma. Additionally, many bisexual-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. It's important to note that therapists provide can 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.
How do I find a bisexual therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for finding bisexual-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. During initial consultations or early sessions, ask potential therapists about their specific training in bisexual-affirming care, their experience with LGBTQ+ clients, and their therapeutic approach to identity-related concerns. An effective bisexual-affirming therapist will demonstrate genuine understanding of bisexual experiences, including awareness of the unique challenges facing bisexual individuals. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
