Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LISW-S, LMHC, LMFT
Our practice is centered around queer and transgender community! You will never need to explain yourself here, and we are happy to support your identity exploration.
I have worked with LGBTQ clients for over a decade and consider myself an Ally. I am in tune to the unique challenges, bias and issues faced by this population. All to frequently LGBTQ clients all have been subject to trauma, disconnection from family, work or social discrimination based on their gender and sexual identity. Whether dealing with individual, partner or family issues I am an experienced resource.

This topic, "LGBT+ Issues" is only made complex by societal standards. Developing a sense of internal trust in who you are is the key to expressing your truest self.
I have years of experience in helping individuals and couples who are members of the LGBTQ2S+ community and am very aware of the difficulties and trauma that come with being part of a minority group.
Living in this world as a member of the queer community still requires you to be vigilant, to question your safety, to reflexively hide parts of your authentic self. Perhaps you faced rejection from your family or your church. You've probably spent some time asking deep questions about who you are and who you're attracted to. Perhaps you struggle with how to show up as your full, authentic self. The therapy process provides a safe space to unpack all these questions and find your own answers.
We routinely work with the LGBT population to empower you to live your life to the fullest. We help you process your unique challenges and develop decision-making processes to live your life outwardly as you identify inwardly.
I am a lesbian. Pretty sure that's been the case since my inception. My passion for work with lesbian and gay couples is two-fold. I am deeply passionate about relationships, all relationships, and I am particularly passionate about non-traditional relationships and helping couples thrive.
