You are tired. Things have been hard for a long time and there doesn’t seem to be any relief. You need someone who can listen, really listen, and then walk along side you to make the changes that would make life more bearable, more enjoyable, more beautiful. Maybe worries and anxieties that were more manageable before have now become insurmountable. Maybe you have lost your identity in a new role ( motherhood, teenage changes, career shifts etc) and your footing isn’t as steady as it once was. Maybe life doesn’t seem worth living. Let’s find the calm, the steady, and the joy together.

My ideal client is someone that is trying to figure out how to thrive in their life. Building deeper understanding of how their past is connected to their current and future self. My client wants to feel better, have deeper connections and find their own happiness. Often my client sees the good in others and will bend over backward for their family, friends and coworkers, but finds, it’s hard to treat themselves as well as everyone else. My client might also be a family member of a service member, or a service member or veteran themselves, trying to wrestle with the intricacies of military culture, deployments, high ops tempo…

I want you to feel heard and safe. Some things that make us human are our complex, safety-focused, and connection-centered, brains. Regardless of our similarities, we all still navigate challenges uniquely. How we approach our stories impacts how we see ourselves and the world around us. Challenges in this world are certain; this may leave us feeling scared, overwhelmed, or depressed. These difficult experiences can lead to isolation, stuckness, panic, and other uncomfortable feelings. Rather than battle it out in your relationships, or on your own, I work from a headspace of inspiring hope and seeking peace within.

Transgender Therapists

As a gender-diverse individual, why might I want to see a therapist who is also gender diverse?

A trans or gender-diverse client may want to see a therapist who is also trans or gender diverse because the client may feel safer sharing their experiences and more confident that the therapist will understand, validate, and support them. But trans or gender-diverse clients can also benefit from therapy with cisgender therapists; this is a personal decision based on the connection between the client and the therapist, and if that connection is strong, therapy will be successful.

What if I cannot find a therapist who shares my gender identity?

Therapy can still be effective if a therapist does not share a client’s gender identity; a large body of research indicates that the most important factor in successful therapy is the therapeutic alliance. A therapist can also be interviewed for sensitivity and competence on gender identity and expression to ensure they possess appropriate knowledge and skills. Many therapists have excellent training and extensive experience working with gender-diverse clients, and that expertise can be invaluable despite a therapist not sharing the same firsthand experiences.

How can I recognize a good therapist for working with gender-diverse clients?

An experienced therapist should be able to help clients explore their gender identity and expression, alleviate discomfort related to their gender identity, treat mental health challenges and trauma, address existing relationships and communication with family members and loved ones, and determine the next steps pertaining to nonmedical or medical gender-affirming interventions. To recognize a good therapist, clients can ask about these topics and explore their comfort and connection with the clinician.

How might I inquire about a therapist’s experience working with transgender clients?

Clients should feel comfortable asking therapists directly about their experience working with transgender or gender-diverse clientele. For example, clients may ask about the therapist’s training and education with regard to gender identity, how many trans clients they’ve worked with in the past, and what sorts of matters were discussed. You may wish to inquire how a therapist specifically supports the needs of transgender clients or clients questioning their gender identity. A good clinician who is nonetheless not the right fit for you is often happy to make referrals to others based on the concerns you articulate in a preliminary conversation.
