Palo Alto Therapists specializing in LGBTQ Issues

Susan Pollard

Many people experience adversity, wondering what happened to their life. They may struggle with navigating relationships, question their gender identity, or feel under pressure at school or work, unsure of how to make it through the day. Moments like these can be overwhelming, but with guidance and support, many can not only survive but flourish. I support young people with these challenging moments, empowering them to tap into their inner strength.

Everyone sees you as confident and put-together, but inside you feel anxious. You’re always pushing yourself to your limits and holding yourself to an unrealistically high standard.

Together, we can regain your sense of peace, find clarity into your struggles, heal from past hurts, and move towards a life of deeper connection and confidence.

Liliana Ramos

You might be feeling as if you're drowning, feeling anxious, or sad. Memories haunt you. When those thoughts come, you feel overwhelmed, find yourself with heart palpitations, sweating, headache, and possibly crying. You feel hopeless, exhausted, on edge, overextended, and stressed. You find yourself overthinking and struggling with life. There is no safety in the world. These are affecting your relationships and work.

Solasta McIntyre

Are you often hypervigilant and tense? Insecure in relationships? Disconnected from your body and emotions? Feel worthless or like you can't trust yourself? Are aware of self-defeating behaviors, but can't seem to change? Are you a young professional experiencing anxiety, relationship distress, or dissociation? You may have had a recent breakup, job change, newborn or Saturn Return. You may have had a "late-in-life" diagnosis or realization around your identity, childhood or brain style.

Lena Axelsson

Do you have a sense that you are not living life to its fullest? Many people in our culture have suffered some form of trauma in childhood or their adult life, essentially trauma is anything that causes a person to feel worthless helpless, insecure, or even endangered. This type of deep experience impacts the whole being and dictates the way we function in our lives. Many times this comes with not believing things can get better, but they can! My many years of experience has showed me this!

Marla Cass

I help women who are successful in their careers but not in their relationships. They are interested in understanding themselves at a deeper level and know that a quick fix is not the answer. Many of them have been to therapy before but felt like it didn't help. They are looking for a therapist who is warm yet direct, and will take the time to understand them and support them on their exploration. Members of the LGBTQQ++ communities and therapists seeking their own therapy are warmly welcomed.

Kathleen "Kade" Flach

I work well with persons who have difficulty connecting with others or feel somehow set apart from those around them. We come to know & understand ourselves in the context of relationships. Without authentic connections, we can be left feeling lost – disconnected from those around us & from ourselves. Being hurt by persons known & trusted can be quite damaging to our sense of self. Some may come to see themselves as defective, unlovable, or even broken. One can end up feeling completely stuck.

You are desperate to reduce your stress and anxiety, heal from your painful childhood, improve self esteem, and build confidence.

My goal in therapy is to walk alongside you on this journey, to be a guide and helper. I believe that every person is an expert in their own life. I see therapy as a space to redefine one’s core beliefs – I am unlovable, I am unworthy – and create positive change.
