These are all common concerns and needs among members of the LGBTQAI+ community - you aren't alone!
I specialize in LGBTQAI+ therapy and I have additional specialization in working with gender and identity issues and members of the Transgender and NB communities. I know how often the intersections between issues like systemic oppression, identity issues, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, aging, trauma, personal isolation, relationships, intimacy, sex, HIV, and survivor issues can affect our lives and influence how we take in new experiences.
I offer a safe, gentle, non-judgmental and compassionate space for my clients to find solid ground in the midst of overwhelming emotions, heal from old wounds and traumas, explore ways to break old cycles and create more pleasurable, satisfying and healthy lives and relationships.
