As a therapist deeply immersed in the LGBTQ+ community, my journey has been one of profound self-discovery, resilience, and growth. I am a highly sensitive person (HSP) with personal experiences that have shaped my understanding of identity and the pressures of societal norms. My therapeutic approach is introspective, reflective, and deeply personal, as I navigate the complexities of these issues with my clients.

Identity has been a central theme in my life, as I’ve grappled with understanding and accepting myself in a world that often imposes narrow definitions of who we should be. Growing up, I struggled with my identity feeling the weight of cultural expectations and the fear of not fitting in. This journey of self-discovery was challenging and at times painful, but it also led me to a place of profound authenticity.

Within the LGBTQ+ community, I am committed to providing specialized LGBTQ+ services to support individuals in their journeys towards self-acceptance and empowerment. In my practice, I offer a safe and affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples to explore their identities, navigate relationship dynamics, and work through the unique challenges they may face.

My focus extends to issues such as depression, hypersensitivity, and anxiety, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community. I understand the intersectionality of these experiences and how they can impact mental health. I have engaged in ongoing education and training to better serve my clients, including specialized certifications in LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy and trauma-informed care.

Through my work, I aim to dismantle stigma and promote mental health equity for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. I have been involved in projects and initiatives aimed at raising awareness about LGBTQ+ mental health issues, including workshops, support groups, and community outreach programs.

My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in my personal experiences as an HSP, an individual navigating the complexities of identity, and cultural expectations. I offer LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy, specializing in issues such as trauma, depression, hypersensitivity, anxiety, and relationship dynamics. My work is driven by a commitment to creating a more inclusive and compassionate world for all individuals, and I am honored to walk alongside my clients on their paths towards healing and self-discovery.
