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.

I work with a variety of issues including: anxiety and panic attacks, depression, gender identity, sexuality, grief, young adult transition issues, cancer survivors, divorce, and maternal mental health. Although I have significant experience working with children, teens, adults, and geriatrics, my practice is primarily focused on working with adults. I am a LGBQIA and Trans Affirming Therapist.

My clients tend to be people who are seeking to bring spirituality more to the forefront in their lives. This includes people who are "spiritual but not religious", people of a certain faith, or people who do not have a faith. Anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and difficulties in relationships are all areas where I can offer creative, heart-centered solutions grounded in your values and beliefs.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA community, teens & young adults, and creative people looking to find deep inner healing. My areas of focus include: sexuality and gender, identity exploration, relationship issues, self-esteem & body image, life transitions, and alternative relationships. I also have background in exploring trauma, grief and loss, family conflict, and exploring career goals or college transition.

My ideal client would be a fat bodied individual who is looking to repair their relationship with food and their body. A client who is interested in seeking freedom from diet culture, and unpacking their fatphobia of themselves and how the world sees them. I work from an anti diet and HAES (health at every size) perspective. I also enjoy working with folks in improving communication skills, assertiveness and mindfulness and folks who need assistance in navigating non monogamous relationships
