LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy in California
Supporting you in your journey of identity, resilience, and healing — with warmth, care, and clinical excellence.
What Is LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy?
LGBTQIA+ Affirmative Therapy creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where your lived experiences, identities, and relationships are not just accepted but deeply respected.
This approach centers your voice and builds on the strength, creativity, and complexity of queer and trans communities. Whether you’re exploring identity, navigating relationships, or healing from trauma, this therapy affirms who you are — exactly as you are.

A Collaborative, Empowering Approach
I work from a place of deep respect, not assumptions. Every person’s experience of queerness or transness is different — and your values, intersections, and goals guide the work. Therapy with me is collaborative, culturally grounded, and designed to help you grow with greater clarity, confidence, and self-acceptance.
