LGBTQIA+ Affirming Therapy

As member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I am passionate about providing affirming, compassionate care to LGBTQIA+ clients, and have extensive experience supporting LGBTQIA+ children, teens, and young adults. My goal is to support you in living your life safely and authentically. I understand that what this looks like is different for each individual client.

​

I recognize the harmful impact created by systems of oppression, including the gender binary and cis-heteronormativity. I understand that the impact on each individual varies based on their intersectional identities and lived experiences.

​

For individuals who identify as trans, nonbinary, or gender expansive, and who wish to access gender affirming medical care, I can provide a WPATH-approved letter to get you one step closer. 

 

As someone who identifies as queer, Bell Hooks’ words below speak to how I aim to support LGBTQIA+ clients: 

     

     “'Queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.” -Bell Hooks
