I believe that each and every one of us is the expert of our own lives, but sometimes we feel overwhelmed and need guidance. This gets more challenging if you're an LGBTQ+ person in the south, but working with an affirming, competent therapist can make a big difference. I help transgender folx and other members of the LGBTQ+ community explore their identity, develop self-esteem, and improve their relationships.
My approach to therapy is queer competent, gender affirming, sex positive, kink affirming, and poly affirming. I strive to create a safe space for my clients to explore their problems fully without fear of judgment. It is truly an honor and a privilege to be able to stand by my clients as they courageously make changes necessary to live fulfilling lives.
You've already gotten a start on your mental health journey just by researching the therapist you'd like to work with. If you have any additional questions, I encourage you to send me an email or give me a phone call. I offer online scheduling on my website for your convenience. I look forward to working with you!
