Not Accepting Clients

Hi there! My name is Ryan Teixeira (he/they) and I am an AMFT in CA! I am a pansexual and polyamorous transgender man!

Associate Marriage & Family Therapist in San Diego, CA
Supervised by Katie Boulware LMFT 120535

About My Clients

I love to work with clients from all backgrounds but I love working with trans/nonbinary individuals and others in the LGBTQ community including the poly/kink community. I also enjoy working with a variety of diagnoses, such as anxiety and depression, and life experiences such as teens, young adults, older adults, couples, and parents.

My Background and Approach

I began my internship and beginning part of my associate-ship working at an outpatient clinic for low income families. I worked with children, teens, and families. Now, I am working with adults on a variety of issues and life experiences. In regards to my therapy style, I love creating a warm and safe space for my clients. I utilize unconditional positive regard, here and now, and person-centered in my therapy approach. I am currently being supervised by a Gestalt therapist and am learning more through her. I also utilize some evidence based practices such as DBT and EMDR (currently attending training in EMDR)

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Since I am a pansexual and polyamorous transgender man, I am queer-affirming in my practice. I also am a pagan witch although I’ve worked with all sorts of religious beliefs. Outside of being a therapist, I have a dog and cat (who you might meet since I am only taking virtual clients). I am also training for a half marathon so running has been my life. I love to create art, read, and go to the beach. If you think we’d be a good fit, please reach out!
