Transgender Therapists in Norwich, CT

Being a queer person in this day and age is really tough. It is scary navigating our current society on a day to day basis. It can be hard to know who is trustworthy and safe. This can be even more difficult for those who are questioning or exploring their gender identity and/or sexual orientation. I want you to know you are not alone.

The Humanistic approach has and continues to be the form of therapy that most closely matches my sense of the world and how human beings exist within it.

My therapeutic style combines the deeper personal aspects of mindfulness with the ethical aspects of psychotherapy to build emotional resilience, and help people interact in the world with greater poise, integrity, and humanity.
