Trans-Affirming Therapy for Every Stage of Your Journey — Especially Now
Living as a trans or nonbinary person can bring up deep and complex emotions, especially when the world doesn’t always make space for who you are. Whether you're questioning your gender, beginning a transition, or have been out for years, you deserve care that honors you.
You might feel disconnected, exhausted from being misgendered, or unsure where you truly belong. Maybe you’ve been told you’re “not trans enough” or feel pressure to fit someone else’s idea of what your gender should look like. These experiences are painful and can leave lasting scars.
On top of everything else, the rise in anti-trans laws, rhetoric, and violence is deeply frightening. Constant political attacks and public transphobia are not just harmful. They can be traumatizing and disturb your sense of safety.
It can send the message that your identity is up for debate. Let’s be clear: it is not.
Your identity is valid. The fear, anger, and grief you may feel are real.
In trans-affirming therapy, you’ll find a space to breathe, to feel, and to heal. Together, we can process trauma, build resilience, and reconnect with the parts of you that have been silenced or pushed aside.
Can you relate?
Feeling exhausted by having to constantly endure harassment or violence, often stemming from your gender expression or identity.
Dealing with family rejection or strained relationships, where you feel the need to choose between your true self and the love or acceptance of loved ones.
Experiencing intersectional stress—managing trans identity alongside racial, religious, or disability-based marginalization
Internal conflict about transitioning, especially if you're unsure about which steps to take or if your journey aligns with societal expectations.
Here’s what we’ll do together
Therapy will help you process the emotional weight of navigating life as a trans person in a world that often questions or invalidates your identity.
Therapy can help you stop hiding and start being yourself. If you’re tired of feeling unseen, misgendered, or misunderstood, it offers a space to release that burden, reclaim your identity, and discover safe spaces within a challenging world.
Together, we’ll work through the pain of not being fully accepted and the exhaustion of a world that doesn’t always understand. You don’t have to perform for others or carry the weight of invisibility. Let’s create a space where you can live freely and embrace your identity on your own terms.
PLEASE KNOW and believe:
You are real.
Your gender is valid.
Healing is possible.
As a trauma therapist trained in cutting-edge, experiential approaches, I help trans and nonbinary clients reconnect with their true selves by working through the emotional and physical tension trauma can leave behind.
Using somatic therapy grounded in neuroscience, we’ll process what’s been held in your body — the fear, grief, and stress that can build up over time. Together, we’ll release what no longer needs to be carried, creating more space for safety, strength, and self-trust.
Therapy isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about coming home to yourself and feeling more present, empowered, and connected in your own skin.
