You Deserve to Be Understood, Affirmed, and Celebrated- With Dignity, Safety, and Respect
LGBTQIA2S+ affirming therapy isn't just about being inclusive- it's a vital service and necessary part of healthcare in a time of increasing hostility and ongoing health disparities.
Affirming therapy is needed now more than ever due to a convergence of social, political, and mental health factors that uniquely impact those with LGBT+ identities today.
Factors such as rising anti-LBGTQ+ rhetoric and legislation have been surging, contributing to widespread fear, stigma, and marginalization, especially among youth and the trans community.
LGBTQ+ individuals experience higher rates of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and more -often due to the stress of marginalization and family rejection.
"Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion."
-bell hooks
Many LGBTQ+ individuals have experienced trauma in healthcare, religious, educational, or familial settings at high rates. Affirming therapy provides a safe, compassionate, and caring space for understanding, support, self-discovery, and healing.
I’m deeply committed to supporting individuals whose identities are often marginalized, including those who are BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, neurodivergent, polyamorous, sex workers, those with disabilities, and others living at the intersections of complex and rich identities. My goal is to provide a safe, affirming space where you can explore your experiences, work through past wounds, and build a life that honors your true self.
I'm a queer femme who proudly and wholeheartedly supports the LGBTQIA2S+ community and actively advocates for the rights and safety of all marginalized communities.
You are welcome and celebrated here. I'd be delighted to work with you!
