Just like any other group, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community faces mental health issues and unique challenges. However, LGBTQ individuals are almost 3 times more likely than others to experience a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. Additionally, more than half of individuals who identify as transgender experience depression or anxiety. The LGBTQ community is also at a higher risk for suicide. Young people are even more at risk, as they may experience a lack of support at home and fear, hatred or prejudice in school. If you are a member of the LGBTQ community and are facing mental health challenges, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s LGBTQ experts and get help today.
Anxious or painful sex impacts more than just sex. It keeps you from having the relationship connection and intimacy you truly desire. When date nights are on the calendar, instead of feeling excited, you have dread and hope it doesn’t end in disappointment or a fight. It also affects more than just dating. Living a passion-filled life becomes a challenge when sexual confidence feels so far out of reach. You know you need answers but have no idea where to look.

I often see driven professionals in high-pressure environments. Many of my clients are men, trying therapy for the first time or continuing work they've already started. Clients generally come to see me to work through stress, anxiety (especially social anxiety), depression, life transitions and trauma. I'm also trained and passionate about working with the broader LGBTQ+ population.
Online Therapy
I specialize in helping men navigate life transitions, anxiety, relationship challenges, career stress, and the pressure to meet expectations. For many men, seeking therapy isn't the first choice—it can feel unfamiliar or unnecessary. But that’s why it matters. Therapy is different from talking to friends. Friends mean well, but they bring their own biases. In therapy, the focus is all on you—a space to be honest without judgment and gain tools for real change.

My clients are ready to embrace transformation and change. They are motivated to explore new possibilities, overcome obstacles, and unlock their potential for growth.

Together, we embark on a journey of empowerment, paving the way for positive and meaningful change in their lives.

You're a people-pleaser, late-bloomer, self-explorer, or someone who values your inner life and wants to dive deeper. Adults who are creative, curious, and compassionate but struggle to apply those strengths to themselves consider me a good fit, as do those who crave relationships but find them to be more trouble than they're worth.

I see many clients who feel stuck and unable to alter their life in a way that reflects their values, causing them to feel sad, on edge, or numb. They are suffering a great deal, and often their needs seem unclear. This can look like constant worrying, dreading the future, or being caught up in the past. I use a frank and kind style to empower clients to find meaning and hope as they navigate the complicated, often oppressive systems of our world.

Our world is filled with so many distractions, worries, fears, and means of disconnection, it can be easy to get off track from the life you are meant for and feel disconnected from yourself and the world. Feeling depressed, anxious, or experiencing imposter syndrome, burnout, or feelings of low self-worth? I believe in every person's inherent right and capacity to live a life of joy and authenticity, and I'd love to support you in rediscovering yourself and reclaiming your life!

The teenage years are filled with anxieties of self discovery and identity. As a young adult you may have parts of yourself you feel like you must hide.

This can be a scary time that can complicate your relationship with your friends and family. Together we can explore ways to find a little more ease in the journey.

My clients are Individuals, couples, children and young adults seeking reconnection to their higher Self. Trauma creates “othering” experiences, with symptoms of anxiety, depression, or loss of meaning. Our youth feel angry or scared in a world flooded by information without having a filter for “what is me,” and “what is not me.” Together, we can immerse ourselves in dreamwork, sensations in the body, imagery coming forth, reconnecting to Soul and inner creativity to find our authentic nature.
