At Solidarity, one of our main values is community. Through community, we can heal the parts of ourselves that have been rejected and marginalized against. As a queer, trans, neurodivergent, and chronically ill person, I understand what it is like to desire safety, lose connection to your authentic self, and long for a world that will embrace all of you. As someone who "gets it" I offer you the following invitation: Let's rebel together in our own individuality. I believe that therapy creates a space that empowers you to develop community within yourself, the outside world, and encourages you to create a new narrative.

I am passionate about working with young people and members of the LGBTQ+ community. As a former educator, I have extensive experience working with youth, and specialize in issues related to adolescence, young adulthood, coming out, queer identities, perfectionism, self-image, and learning disabilities. My work seeks to work with what is thought and what is felt, integrating cognitive and somatic experiences. Also, the handsome fella in the pic is Hud, our rescue pup. He's generally happier than he looks in the picture, I promise.

Breaking through the numbness birthed by life’s tragedies is dirty work. Trauma, stress and grief can cling to you, isolating you from everything you value. I'm a therapist who will get right into the muck and fight alongside you as we break through apathy and discover what zest might be lying underneath, waiting to spring forth. My past clients have described me as attuned “I feel so heard in our sessions. Breanna really listens and reflects things back to me in a way that makes me feel less ashamed,” and gently challenging “She lowkey reads me sometimes but she also helps me stay grounded in my values. I need that.”

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the life you want to live? Life has a way of pausing at pivotal moments, offering the chance to reflect, realign, and reimagine.

I’m a Latinx therapist and person of color (POC) with advanced training in psychodynamic therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and evidence-based practices. I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, life transitions, and relationship issues.

As a practitioner I seek to assist my clients to begin to shed the layers of the their cocoon, and accept themselves as whole people. I utilize mindfulness techniques, somatic awareness, meditation, attachment and experiential psychotherapy. I encourage clients to stay with their feelings in the here and now, and ask them to accept and honor the present moment with all its feelings rather than exiling or "fixing" their feelings.

Healing begins when we feel truly seen, not just heard. I work with people who are ready to examine not just their symptoms but the deeper patterns, beliefs, and relational wounds beneath them. My approach is rooted in the understanding that so much of our suffering comes from adapting to environments, cultures, and relationships that were never designed for us to thrive. I am a collaborative, deeply relational therapist who believes that curiosity, radical acceptance, and love are the most powerful forces for change. Whether you are navigating trauma, identity, relationships, or life transitions, I will meet you where you are.

As a trained clinical social worker and sex therapist I'm skilled at working with relationship and sexuality related concerns including coming out, same-sex relationships, sexual orientation, and gender identity.

You're a high-functioning, high-insight individual who seems 'fine' on the exterior, but inside, you're experiencing immense chaos. Maybe you have ADHD and have internalized the belief that you aren't enough or are too much.

Transgender Therapists
As a gender-diverse individual, why might I want to see a therapist who is also gender diverse?
A trans or gender-diverse client may want to see a therapist who is also trans or gender diverse because the client may feel safer sharing their experiences and more confident that the therapist will understand, validate, and support them. But trans or gender-diverse clients can also benefit from therapy with cisgender therapists; this is a personal decision based on the connection between the client and the therapist, and if that connection is strong, therapy will be successful.
What if I cannot find a therapist who shares my gender identity?
Therapy can still be effective if a therapist does not share a client’s gender identity; a large body of research indicates that the most important factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. A therapist can also be interviewed for sensitivity and competence on gender identity and expression to ensure they possess appropriate knowledge and skills. Many therapists have excellent training and extensive experience working with gender-diverse clients, and that expertise can be invaluable despite a therapist not sharing the same firsthand experiences.
How can I recognize a good therapist for working with gender-diverse clients?
An experienced therapist should be able to help clients explore their gender identity and expression, alleviate discomfort related to their gender identity, treat mental health challenges and trauma, address existing relationships and communication with family members and loved ones, and determine the next steps pertaining to nonmedical or medical gender-affirming interventions. To recognize a good therapist, clients can ask about these topics and explore their comfort and connection with the clinician.
How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience working with transgender clients?
Clients should feel comfortable asking therapists directly about their experience working with transgender or gender-diverse clientele. For example, clients may ask about the therapist’s training and education with regard to gender identity, how many trans clients they’ve worked with in the past, and what sorts of matters were discussed. You may wish to inquire how a therapist specifically supports the needs of transgender clients or clients questioning their gender identity. A good clinician who is nonetheless not the right fit for you is often happy to make referrals to others based on the concerns you articulate in a preliminary conversation.
