My interests are in working with adults that have experienced trauma, grief and loss, religious trauma, family of origin issues, people diagnosed with ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, and Depression, as well as LGBTQIA+ people and people experiencing gender dysphoria and/or seeking gender affirming surgery. As a social worker, I believe it is important to name systemic oppressions, such as racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, capitalism and the ways they intersect in order to acknowledge the harm we continue to experience on a daily basis.

I am rooted in affirming the experiences of folks who are queer, transgender, people of color, non-monogamous/polyamorous, sex workers, kinky, fat, neurodivergent and disabled.
Do you feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or struggle to be connected to your life? You're not alone. Together we can work to build the skills you need to live a life that fits within your values. Being emotionally sensitive myself, I understand the difficulties many of us face when we feel things deeply. My mission as your therapist will be to support you in cherishing this aspect of yourself, while we work on any negative impacts it might have on your life. My specialty is working with adults and older teens with difficulty regulating emotion, as well as anxiety, depression, complex trauma, eating disorders, and mood disorders.

I work with clients ages 15+ and am passionate about supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community, especially transgender and non-binary individuals. My focuses include mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety spectrum disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. I am particularly drawn to helping clients navigate existential topics like identity/self-worth, fears of death or loss, feelings of emptiness, and experiences of loneliness.

I believe therapy is most effective when clinicians welcome the expertise clients have about their own lives. Treatment is collaborative! My hope is to take the relationship we build and extend it to the rest of your life outside of the therapy room. I approach therapy with the assumption that clients aren’t trying to make their lives harder, but often that our attempts to manage distress may increase suffering. Through our work together, we will focus on identifying strengths and values that are guiding behavior, and then challenging and changing the unhelpful aspects and thought patterns that make reaching your goals difficult.

As a transgender person I have experienced discrimination in the therapeutic space and seek to create a supportive space for all regardless of identity.
My name is Jupiter McGee and I use she/her or they/them pronouns. Each of us has an inherent worth and value, but often internalize experiences that make us believe otherwise. Every single one of us lives under multiple interlocking systems that impact each of our lives. My ideal client may feel out of place in their family or community for numerous reasons, but is worthy of connection just the same. Each of us navigate the world in our own ways and at our own pace. Some may feel directionless while others have clear goals, regardless all are welcome in session.

I help recovering over-thinkers blossom into their authenticity. Message me for a free consult! Transitioning out from a life run by overthinking can be really challenging.

It’s one thing to leave unhealthy places, it’s another to live in the new healthier spaces!

Along with panic, phobias, self-esteem, sexuality, stress, trauma/PTSD, and body, family, identity, intimacy, transgender, and women issues.
Telehealth Therapist: Throughout our lifetime we encounter various transitions and challenges, I believe these experiences hold opportunities for transformation and growth. I believe that you are the expert in your own life and that each person’s journey is unique; therefore, this is not a “one size fits all” therapeutic experience. I strive to assist people in achieving their highest potential for fulfillment and well-being. I aim to assist clients in discovering their authentic selves by providing a trusting and compassionate therapeutic environment where you feel safe engaging in problem-solving and self-discovery.

Whatever you bring to the table, I begin each therapy journey by developing an understanding and warm relationship where I encourage imperfection to show up so that you can be deeply seen and known. Most importantly, I work to meet you where you are and tailor my approach and interventions to your individual needs. Together, we build a safe and compassionate space where you get to honor your story and find the healing you're seeking.

I specialize in treating LGBT concerns (individual and relationship), and augment my practice with specialized training in transgender care.
I offer teletherapy to clients in California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Colorado. I offer in-office visits in Sacramento. Sometimes we expect far too much from ourselves. Each client is invited into a space where there is no expectation and where they are free to be themselves, without fear of judgement or misunderstanding. Adults can sometimes struggle to find space to hold compassion for themselves. Any style relationship can also use a nonjudgmental time and space to feel heard, while building tools for communication.
