LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapy

Explore Sexuality, Gender, Sex, Intimacy, and Healing

At this practice, we understand the unique challenges and experiences that LGBTQ+ individuals and couples may face in their lives and relationships. Our goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and affirming environment where you can explore your identity, navigate relationship dynamics, and cultivate resilience and well-being. We specialize in LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy, which means we affirm and celebrate diverse identities and relationships without judgment or bias. We recognize the importance of cultural competence, ongoing education, and allyship in providing effective therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples.

Our Services

Individual Therapy

Our individual therapy sessions provide a confidential space for LGBTQ+ individuals to explore their unique experiences, challenges, and goals. Whether you're navigating coming out, exploring your gender identity, coping with discrimination, or seeking support for mental health concerns, we are here to help you on your journey towards healing and self-discovery.

Couples Therapy

We offer couples therapy for LGBTQ+ couples at all stages of their relationship journey. Whether you're seeking support for communication issues, navigating conflicts, exploring open relationships, or strengthening your bond, we are dedicated to helping you build healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

Gender Affirming Therapy

We have experience and expertise in providing gender affirming therapy for transgender, non-binary, and gender nonconforming individuals. We offer support for gender exploration, transition-related issues, accessing gender-affirming healthcare, and navigating the challenges of living authentically in a cisnormative society. 

NOTE: We are experienced in writing WPATH letters that allow our clients to access gender-affirming care/surgery. We recognize the issues and frustration caused by therapists and mental health providers gatekeeping these services, and we are dedicated to understanding your needs and wants, upholding your bodily autonomy, and helping you access the gender-affirming care that you deserve. 

Family Therapy

We offer family therapy sessions for LGBTQ+ individuals and their families to navigate issues related to coming out, family acceptance, communication breakdowns, and building stronger, more supportive relationships.

Intersectionality

We recognize and honor the intersectionality of identities and experiences within the LGBTQ+ community, including race, ethnicity, religion, disability, body size, and socioeconomic status. While we will focus on YOU, know that we will not ignore the impact of generational and community trauma and oppression. Too often, we ask individuals to bear the burden of fixing community-level issues, and we pathologize the ways individuals have learned to cope with such macro-level oppression. Although we live and work within harsh and broken systems, and often contribute to them unknowingly, we work hard to avoid pathologizing the ways you have learned to survive and get by.
