About My Clients

We continually seek to provide a safe and affirming experience for all marginalized persons, particularly those who trans, nonbinary, queer, and/or BIPOC. We are passionate about providing services for people who might not otherwise feel comfortable seeking therapy or who might not otherwise have access to it.

My Background and Approach

We provide individual therapy for a variety of presenting issues, including identity exploration, transitioning, societal stigma and marginalization, interpersonal issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, autism, stress, and whatever else clients bring to the table. Joanna is excited to supervise Erin Biesecker in the 2023/2024 academic year and to be able to provide services to even more people with their help. The Gender Affirmative Therapy Group for trans and nonbinary adults meets weekly for 90 minutes, for 16 weeks at a time, meeting in person from 6-7:30 p.m. The group starting in January is full. Next one starts August, 2024, dates TBD. Please contact us for an intake session prior to joining a group. Group sessions are $50 per session or insurance.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Erin Biesecker (she/they): I am a queer therapist pursuing a doctorate in counseling psychology at the University of Louisville. I use a relational-cultural therapy approach examining interpersonal and cultural factors that impact mental wellbeing. I also practice cultural humility, in which I regularly reflect on my biases and seek out cultural opportunities with clients from marginalized populations facing system barriers. I am pursuing a career working with LGBTQ+ people in a practice that empowers and validates wellbeing in a heteronormative society while supporting the LGBTQ+ community at large. Joanna Morse (she/her): I have worked mainly with transgender adults since 2014. I use a collaborative approach because I believe you are the expert on what is important to you, what works for you, and how you think and feel. I take an active approach, teaching skills and helping to find practical solutions. I offer client-centered, existential, DBT-informed, and IFS-informed therapy.
