Affirming LGBTQIA+ Counseling for NY & NJ
Therapy Designed for Your Whole Identity
Seeking therapy as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community requires finding a therapist who is not only informed but truly affirming. You deserve a space where you don't have to spend your time educating your therapist, but can dive straight into the issues that matter to you, knowing your identities are honored and understood.
As an LGBTQIA+ affirming clinical social worker, I am committed to providing care that is culturally competent, sex-positive, and intersectional. My practice is a safe space for exploring identity, navigating relationships, and managing mental health challenges unique to the queer experience.
Common Areas of Focus in Our Work:
Identity Exploration: Navigating coming out, gender identity, and sexual orientation across different life stages.
Relationship Navigation: Managing non-monogamy, dating, and forming healthy bonds within the community and beyond.
Dealing with Stressors: Coping with minority stress, microaggressions, and the challenges of chosen vs. biological family dynamics.
Sexual Health: Addressing concerns related to sex, intimacy, and sexual health in an open and non-judgmental environment.
A Truly Affirming Space
My role is to hold a safe, supportive, and non-pathologizing space for you. Therapy with me means recognizing the strength and resilience it takes to live authentically, while also addressing issues like anxiety, depression, or life transitions that often intersect with your experience.
I serve clients across New York and New Jersey through secure, virtual sessions.
