Culturally Responsive & LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapy
Affirming support that honors your full identity, lived experience, and the systems that shape your story.
You may have arrived here if:
Past therapy spaces didn’t fully honor who you are — or because living authentically has come with real risks, losses, or disconnection.
Perhaps you’ve learned to hide, code‑switch, or shrink parts of yourself to stay safe in families, faith communities, workplaces, or social spaces. Or maybe you’ve pulled away altogether, choosing isolation over the pain of rejection or discrimination.
However you arrived here, you deserve a space where all of you are welcome.
How I can help:
In our work together, I offer culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ affirming therapy grounded in compassion, curiosity, and respect. From our very first session, I’ll take time to know you as a whole person — your identities, values, culture, gender, sexuality, and lived experiences. Together, we’ll gently explore your story while also zooming out to understand how larger systems of oppression have shaped the ways you’ve learned to survive.
Rather than pathologizing your coping strategies, we’ll honor how they once helped protect you. Through therapy, we’ll build self‑acceptance, reduce shame, and support you in reconnecting with a life that feels embodied, values‑aligned, and expansive — one that celebrates your full identity.
