Manchaca Therapists specializing in Gender Identity

Christy Reeder

You might be achieving success in many areas, but still, something feels out of sync. You find yourself repeatedly caught in the same patterns, experiencing loneliness despite your surroundings, or being overly critical of yourself despite your accomplishments. If this resonates with you, I offer a safe and supportive space to explore these contradictions, understand yourself more deeply, and cultivate a more satisfying relationship with yourself and others.

Are you feeling lost in a sea of negative self-talk and inner-criticism? Maybe you're feeling like you are inherently broken or alone or covered in shame. Maybe you look at your partner(s) and think "why isn't this working?" My clients, both individuals, couples, and relationships, are people who are unhappy with their current sex life or are struggling to find themselves in their sexuality or are thinking "I thought sex was supposed to be better than this." You are not alone.

I have a particular passion for working with survivors of childhood abuse, domestic, and sexual violence. I am also well versed in and absolutely love working with the LGBTQIA, BIPOC, and Kink/Poly communities. What I love about working with survivors is fiercely holding hope while delicately encouraging the sparks of change at a time that can be so dark.

Ali Siewert

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.

Michael Germany

Anxiety and trauma are a heavy burden, disconnecting us from our lives, loved ones, and even our sense of vitality and safety in our minds and bodies. To move past trauma and anxiety for good, we must foster safety in our lives, heal the source of our pain, and develop a felt sense of our own capacity to flourish. My practice is all about helping my clients through that process as a supportive companion and guide.

I help you process the old stories and beliefs held deep within that are cutting you off from your true self.

Deann Acton

I have noticed that often times creative, sensitive, intelligent people will have very unique problems in this world. They will carry around more anxiety from overthinking. They can become easily distracted and bored when they are not stimulated. And sometimes, intense emotional reactions can cycle into feelings of depression that can be difficult to navigate. I use creative interventions and positive coping strategies to help individuals find ways to be the best version of themselves.
