Connect With a Therapist That Gets You
Everyone deserves a therapist who truly understands and affirms their identity. As an LGBTQ+-affirming therapist, I provide a safe, welcoming space where you can explore your identity, navigate challenges, and build a life that feels authentic and fulfilling — without fear of judgment.
Affirming Therapy for All Identities
Whether you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, non-binary, asexual, or any other identity within the LGBTQ+ spectrum, your experience is valid and your mental health matters. I am committed to understanding the unique challenges you face, including discrimination, family rejection, internalized stigma, coming out, and navigating relationships.
Common Concerns Addressed
LGBTQ+ individuals may seek therapy for identity exploration and self-acceptance, coming out to family, friends, or colleagues, managing minority stress and discrimination, relationship and intimacy concerns, gender dysphoria and transition support, anxiety, depression, or trauma related to identity, building community and support networks, and navigating intersecting identities.
LGBTQ+ Couples Therapy
I also specialize in providing couples therapy for LGBTQ+ partners. Queer relationships come with their own nuanced dynamics — from navigating coming out as a couple, to managing differing levels of openness about your relationship, to addressing the impact of societal stigma on your bond. I understand these complexities and provide a space where both partners feel seen and supported as you work through challenges, strengthen your connection, and build the relationship you both deserve.
Exploring Your Identity Without Pressure
If you are questioning your gender identity or sexual identity, I am skilled at creating a safe container for you to explore these questions nonjudgmentally and without the pressure of needing to define a label. Your journey is yours, and there is no timeline or expectation — only space to discover what feels true for you. I will also work extensively to help you find supportive spaces, resources, and communities that affirm your identity, so that the support you receive extends beyond our sessions and into your daily life.
Why Affirming Therapy Matters Now More Than Ever
Given the current political climate in Florida, it is particularly critical to access affirming therapy that will not challenge or question your identity. Instead, this space offers safety, encouragement, and celebration of your unique identity. You deserve a therapist who stands firmly in your corner — someone who sees your identity as a strength, not something to be fixed or debated. I am also happy to provide supportive documentation for current clients pursuing gender-affirming care, as needed. My practice is built on the principles of respect, inclusion, and cultural humility. I continuously educate myself on LGBTQ+ issues and strive to create a therapeutic environment where you feel seen, heard, and valued for exactly who you are.
