LGBTQ Identity
Celebrating Diversity: LGBTQ Inclusive Healing Space
LGBTQ Inclusivity Healing Space, where diversity is not just acknowledged but celebrated. As an Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapist, I bring a wealth of therapeutic modalities, but more importantly, I draw from my lived experiences as a proud member of the LGBTQ community to offer a space where you can be authentically yourself.
Understanding the Unique Struggles
Being a part of the LGBTQ community comes with its own set of challenges. From the struggles of self-discovery and coming out to navigating the complexities of sexual orientation and gender identity in a heteronormative world, every journey is unique. As someone who has walked this path, I understand the importance of creating a safe and understanding space for you to explore and heal.
Acknowledging Disparities
It’s essential to recognize the disparities that persist within the LGBTQ community. Disturbingly, LGBTQ youth face higher rates of homelessness and suicide compared to their non-LGBTQ peers. This reality underscores the need for compassionate and tailored therapeutic support. I not only acknowledge these disparities and work together to foster resilience, healing, and empowerment, I have experienced some of these struggles myself. I am therefore committed to help anyone on that journey of confusion, rejection and isolation feel understood, heard and begin to heal with love and acceptance.
Inclusive Therapeutic Approach
My approach as an Integrative Psychotherapist is informed by a range of modalities, allowing us to tailor our sessions to your unique needs. I integrate LGBTQ-affirmative therapy principles, recognizing the importance of addressing the specific challenges faced by the community, such as discrimination, stigma, and family dynamics.
Drawing Inspiration from LGBTQ Activists and Authors
I draw inspiration from the resilience of LGBTQ activists and authors who have paved the way for progress. From Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, who ignited the modern LGBTQ rights movement, to contemporary voices like Janet Mock and Roxane Gay, their stories remind us of the strength and beauty within our community.

Our therapy sessions are designed to be a safe and affirming space where you can explore your identity, relationships, and aspirations. Whether you are navigating the complexities of coming out, dealing with discrimination, or simply seeking a supportive space to process your experiences, you are welcome here.
