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.

My goal as your therapist is to empower you with the strengths you already have but may have lost sight of behind a wall of overwhelm or hopelessness. You are the expert on how you experience life. My job is to help you discover the path that works best for you, not to impose my own thoughts and beliefs. That being said, I will help you see your blind spots and be aware of ways you may be sabotaging yourself as well as helping you pull out of those cycles.

I work with folx who experience a variety of presenting concerns that often co-exist and intersect with each other (e.g., the intersection of identity, culture, sexuality, faith). I specialize in working with Indigenous peoples, identity development or questioning, cultural healing and processing, relationships, transitions, intersectionality, stress, meaning making/existentialism, family of origins processing, and college students.

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.
