San Rafael Therapists specializing in LGBTQ Issues

Name: TherapyDen LLC
Price range: $

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.

Jess Gioia
Associate Marriage & Family Therapist,
As a lesbian I have firsthand experience of the difficulty of thriving within a heteronormative society, as well as a background of queer activism, education and community building. With me as your couples therapist you can relax your guard and know that we have a common basis of understanding right off the bat. I am especially experienced with navigating family of origin issues (including estrangement), religious background, and poly/kinky/sex work dynamics.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
My clients tend to be sensitive, intuitive, creative, conscientious, animal-loving, empathetic, deep thinkers. They are also typically burdened by daily overwhelm and overstimulation, anxiety, shame or low self esteem. These symptoms often result from exposure to trauma and from compulsive unwanted behaviors such as skin picking and hair pulling.

Hannah Joharchi
Psychologist, PhD
You're freaked out and in scarcity mindset. You feel like you carry it all and people just don't see how much you're trying and what you're really going through on the inside. I so hear you. You're over there wondering "why don't they get me?!" and I'd like to help you move to "wow, they see me!" and more importantly I want to help you get to "phew, NOW I SEE ME." I work with folks to get the love they always wanted within and ask for it in more digestable ways.

Whether or not your gender or sexuality is a stressor for you, I can give you LGBTQIA-competent support that celebrates your unique journey and identity. I am a queer-identified woman myself, and a professor of gender and sexuality studies, so I’m comfortable listening to diverse experiences and opinions, and I can give you fresh, first-hand perspectives on navigating LGBTQ+ life in a homophobic society.

A space that is safe and welcomes all aspects of who you are, including those that you feel you can’t show to anyone else.

Lindsay Elizondo
Clinical Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I specialize in working with women, young adults (~18-25), relationship issues, depth work, LGBTQ+ community, and religious harm/trauma. I really enjoy working with people who are sensitive or a bit countercultural, and helping women examine the impact of sociocultural norms and expectations (e.g., to not take up space). Much healing can be had in challenging these messages, reconnecting with your body and emotions, accepting yourself as you are, and re-centering your values and your voice.

Elaine Walker
Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Maintaining curiosity and compassion, we work together to uncover and unpack how our past relates to our present. I work with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds wanting to explore a wide range of issues including sexuality, trauma, body image and relational wounding. I believe working with the therapeutic relationship can be the alchemy important to healing. When we have been wounded in past relationships, true healing can come from being and experiencing something different.
