Gender affirming, queer therapy
Queer and trans folks deserve mental health support that celebrates their lives and identities.
I offer support for folks of all genders and sexualities in exploring gender and sexual identity, navigating queer relationships, and pursuing gender-affirming and transition-related care. For queer folks looking for general mental health support, including trauma therapy, I know that being able to bring your whole self to therapy is essential. As a queer, nonbinary person myself, I am passionate about creating celebratory spaces for queer folks to pursue healing.
My approach is poly-affirming and kink-affirming, and I practice from an informed consent model, where you are the expert and decision-maker in your life.
I also offer single-session assessments for gender affirming care letters (for hormones or surgery). I do not believe that trans people (or any people) should be required to get a letter from a mental health professional in order to receive healthcare they are capable of consenting to, but as long as this is a requirement, I will offer this as a service in order to make accessing gender affirming care easier for everyone.
