Jack Dickey (He / Him)

I provide trauma-informed, affirming therapy for clients across the LGBTQ+ spectrum. Drawing from both professional experience and my own lived experience as a sexual minority, I support clients navigating Queer identity development, building connection to LGBTQ+ communities, and managing interactions with non-Queer family, friends, coworkers, and society. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and culturally informed, helping you feel seen, understood, and empowered in your journey

I can help you overcome the lasting effects of trauma using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), combined with Somatic / Sensorimotor therapy, polyvagal-informed approaches, and IFS-informed parts work. This integrative approach helps you process distressing memories, better regulate your nervous system, and cultivate genuine self-compassion. Together, we work toward liberation from past trauma, to help you build a life that is grounded, connected, and present.

I am trained in EMDR through the HAP Institute (2020-2021) and have been integrating it into my practice ever since. EMDR helps clients process and release distressing memories, healing past wounds that continue to affect the present. By addressing these unprocessed experiences, EMDR allows you to move toward a life that is authentic, connected, and free from the lingering effects of trauma.

I use an Internal Family Systems-informed approach to help you identify and understand the various “parts” of you that influence your behaviors, thoughts, and emotions. Through compassionate integration of these parts, you gain increased self-awareness, inner harmony, and self-compassion. IFS supports you to resolve internal conflicts, enhance decisiveness, and foster a greater sense of personal unity.

My somatic therapy approach integrates Sensorimotor therapy, polyvagal theory, and attachment-focused practices to support your nervous system in accessing safety and releasing stored distress. By working directly with the body’s innate wisdom, this approach helps you transform emotional trauma at a foundational level, fostering deep healing, resilience, and lasting change.

I work with individual clients exploring polyamory, ethical non-monogamy, and other open relationship structures. Personally polyamorous and professionally experienced, I support clients in opening relationships, navigating attachment needs, and communicating boundaries and desires effectively with multiple partners. My goal is to help you experience safety, connection, and fulfillment in all your relationships, while learning skills to foster trust, intimacy, and emotional regulation.
