Do you hide parts of yourself that make others feel uncomfortable? Do you carry the shame of being judged for your sexuality, addiction, HIV status, or more? These are some of the hardest things to talk about but it’s even harder going through it alone. You deserve a space where you don't have to translate your experience or defend your truth—where someone actually understands what you're going through. If you have never felt safe, accepted, or understood, I feel your pain, because I have been there.

Are you tired of telling your story over and over again? Maybe you've had a bad previous experience with another therapist, a doctor, a friend, a colleague. You've been trying to hold it together but feeling exhausted and no one seems to understand. Or perhaps you and your partner have been going in circles arguing over the same thing and feeling farther apart than ever. Your body feels unpredictable, the advice you get is confusing, and you're tired of feeling dismissed. You want real understanding, less shame, and to feel more connected to yourself. You want clarity, confidence, and to finally feel heard.

Adolescence and young adulthood can feel like trying to build an identity while the ground keeps shifting: family expectations, culture, substance use, or trauma all pulling in different directions. My clients are teens and young adults navigating exactly that, often carrying depression, anxiety, or identity questions they have not felt safe voicing elsewhere. My team and I meet them with honesty and compassion, offering a space where their full story, context and complexity included, is understood rather than simplified.

We all have a unique story that can influence the relationship we have with ourselves and others. You may have experienced situations that have left you feeling worried, stressed or overwhelmed. Those experiences may try to interfere with you mentally, emotionally and leave doubting yourself and your abilities. Sometimes, you may be trying to juggle it all and have difficulty managing stress, work and family life. If you can relate to any of these experiences, you are not alone. I believe that despite life's challenges, you have inner strengths and abilities that can help you to reconnect with yourself and create a path forward.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Fort Worth, TX 76107
As an LGBTQ+ specialist, I work heavily with gender dysphoria and am one of few people that can treat it with EMDR.
I enjoy working with folks who've tried therapy before, and didn't get what they needed. I love trying out more creative approaches to therapy, and I make sure we're collaborating to find that path you've been searching for. Some of my most rewarding clients are those struggling with self-worth, depression, anxiety, and trauma. Since most folks have struggled with a least a few of these issues, I find myself well equipped to work with just about anyone. Whether you're already motivated and aware of what changes you want to make, or just getting started on your mental health journey, I'll be happy to lend a hand how I can.

LGBTQ+ Therapists
Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.

Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.

How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.

Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
