Therapy is choosing yourself. Boldly. It's a lantern-lit excursion, to seek out your one-true-voice, amidst a great din. It is a space to find your sovereignty, wounds, and all. A workshop, laboratory, and garden plot, in which to build, test, and grow: so you can hone your inner leader, teammate, partner, friend, and family member. I work with the veils and walls that stand between you and becoming your best self. If you are here, you are already bold.

I am a queer non-binary transmasc therapist whose goal is that, with me, you can feel safe and honored. Feeling comfortable sharing may not feel easy or immediate, so I aim to stay present, mindful and non-judgmental, so that you can be at ease to bring your full self to our sessions. My therapeutic style is relational, allowing freedom of expression to occur in our dynamic. I value the way the mind and body are intricately connected and inform our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am guided by therapeutic modalities such as DBT, somatic experiencing, internal family systems and polyvagal theories.

Do you carry old wounds that still shape how you show up in the world? Maybe you’ve learned to hide parts of yourself to keep the peace or stay safe. But deep down, you're exhausted—from the pretending, the people-pleasing, the self-doubt. You want to feel calm in your body, clear in your mind, and whole in who you are. You want your story to make sense. You want to feel like yourself again—or maybe for the first time. As a queer therapist, I know what it's like to question your worth in a world that hasn’t always seen you. If you're craving relief, clarity, and a life that finally feels like your own—you’re in the right place.

The ways we struggle and suffer often started as adaptive behaviors and thought patterns that helped us survive painful situations in the past. As such, they can also speak to a desire for a different way of living. As a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, I work collaboratively with you, listening and asking questions and attuning to your words and your unique presence to help us reach towards this unconscious material. Together, over time, we can create new channels for old feelings, new vantages onto old desires, that can foster a greater sense of agency, connection, safety and aliveness.

Welcome! My name is Enya and I am a queer, trauma-informed therapist. My approach is guided by curiosity, empathy, and humor.

I’m a master’s student in Mental Health Counseling. My therapeutic approach is based on the idea that we create narratives about ourselves, which can either empower us or hold us back. Through the counseling process, we will explore these narratives and work together to discover new perspectives. We will also explore the parts of yourself that you feel shame, guilt, or distress about. It is important to me to explore these parts and narratives not only from an individual perspective but also from a systemic and social justice-oriented lens. My approach is tailored to your unique needs and integrates DBT, CBT, and Narrative Therapy.

Ideally, therapy has been shown to have the best outcomes when you feel like your therapist gets you. Therapy is a relationship, rather than a set of instructions. My approach is warm, interactive, practical, and empathic, and I draw from relational, feminist, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive treatment models. I believe in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship, along with helping you contextualize your life experiences, honoring your expertise in your own life.

Sometimes things happen in our lives that change us in ways we could never predict. It might be a single day or the accumulation of experiences over years that upends our sense of stability and trust in ourselves. And over time, our confidence to move through the world without fear shrinks. It can feel like a never-ending struggle to keep emotions in check while continuing to try to balance all the complex demands of our lives. We end up feeling reactive, burnt-out, isolated, detached, and struggle with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem as we attempt to manage these extremes on our own.

My theoretical orientation is integrative, drawing on cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and client-centered theories. I tailor my approach to the unique needs and goals of each client. For instance, I integrate cognitive-behavioral strategies to address specific challenges, foster humanistic principles to promote self-discovery, and employ client-centered techniques to enhance the therapeutic alliance. I believe in the inherent wisdom of the body and incorporate emotional and somatic awareness into my holistic practice. By listening to the body, we can navigate past traumas and painful experiences together.

Are you navigating the complexities of a high-conflict relationship, whether monogamous or open/polyamorous?

Rage may surface during arguments, or you might feel the urge to escape when conflicts arise.
