Openings for daytime clients. ALL services are SELF-PAY. People come to me to work on concerns around sexuality, gender, intimacy, vulnerability, and relationships. Some clients address spiritual concerns in treatment. Some address religious harm. Most work to understand and communicate their needs more clearly. Clients work to create intimacy and connection and to feel centered and grounded in daily life. Clients I work with report healing relationships with self, others, and spirituality. They report feeling calmer, improving communication skills, increased self-acceptance, deepening meaning, and greater overall life satisfaction.
I draw on 40+ years in LGBTQ+ communities to create an accepting space, enabling clients to build better relationships, meaning, and purpose. I invite in people's values, spirituality, and beliefs. I empower people to address issues blocking them from living more authentically, increasing self-acceptance, and creating satisfying lives.
You can live more fully as yourself without shame. You can learn better communication skills. You can be more emotionally connected to yourself and to others. Let's talk about your concerns and your goals in a welcoming place without shame or judgement. Contact me by EMAIL to schedule a free phone consultation.
