Just like any other group, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community faces mental health issues and unique challenges. However, LGBTQ individuals are almost 3 times more likely than others to experience a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. Additionally, more than half of individuals who identify as transgender experience depression or anxiety. The LGBTQ community is also at a higher risk for suicide. Young people are even more at risk, as they may experience a lack of support at home and fear, hatred or prejudice in school. If you are a member of the LGBTQ community and are facing mental health challenges, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s LGBTQ experts and get help today.
I work with couples and relationships, empowering partners to find the essential components needed to move forward in a way that strengthens and heals the whole. As an LGBTQ+ affirmative therapist, I am deeply committed to providing inclusive support.

My clients come from a broad spectrum of identities, sexual orientations, genders, and neurodiversities. It is normal (and practical) to be skeptical of your choice of therapist that is the best fit for you. Our relationship will be built on trust and respect for your process. The clients that get the most out of therapy are those that are curious about what is summoned in them and committed to their inner work between sessions, all of which takes time.
Anxious or painful sex impacts more than just sex. It keeps you from having the relationship connection and intimacy you truly desire. When date nights are on the calendar, instead of feeling excited, you have dread and hope it doesn’t end in disappointment or a fight. It also affects more than just dating. Living a passion-filled life becomes a challenge when sexual confidence feels so far out of reach. You know you need answers but have no idea where to look.

It takes great courage to take the first step in seeking support for past or current experiences. As a therapist, I use a collaborative approach to explore areas of concern and establish goals towards personal growth and change. In doing so, my goal is to provide a safe environment that is free of judgement when embarking on your journey of healing and self-improvement.

Do you take pride in being there for others, but end up putting yourself last? You often feel lonely and worry about being a burden, even to the people you’re closest to. You’re grateful for what you have in life, but you feel like something needs to change in order to really enjoy it. If this resonates with you, I can confidently tell you that it does not have to stay this way. In therapy together, we will create a safe space that will unlock greater self-acceptance and peace.

I work psychoanalytically with patients who wish to more deeply explore and understand their internal world. Together we can create language for hidden, blocked, 'unthinkable' thoughts; name and reflect on unconscious conflicts; work through dreams; and build resilience.

My typical client is no stranger to phrases like "you're over-thinking it" and "too smart for your own good." They are gifted reasoners and problem solvers beginning to understand that the problems they face aren't ones they can simply think their way out of. I am particularly experienced working with academics, creatives, and others in high-pressure positions, emerging adults and adolescents, and LGBTQIA2S+ folks and their families.

Living in a world that often tells you you don't have the right to exist as you are can be exhausting. You may feel constantly misunderstood, disregarded, or as though you just can't get ahead no matter how hard you try. You might want healthier relationships with others but have no idea what that means or how to create one. If you feel as though you never got the handbook on "how to human," or have spent your life trying to fit into a predetermined mold that just doesn't fit, I can help.

Feeling like you don’t fit in is stressful, isolating, and leads to fatigue. You’re left trying to figure out what to do next with very little support to guide you. Our society has rigid expectations that we can't help but internalize. As a cis gay man, I understand how isolating and frustrating this can be. I approach therapy with a warm, curious, and empathic style. You deserve to be understood and have deeper clarity.
