LGBTQIA+ and Gender-affirming Counseling Services
Compassionate therapy for LGBTQIA+ teens, adults, and their families in North Georgia.
Compassionate therapy for LGBTQIA+ teens, adults, and their families in North Georgia.
I am a licensed professional counselor dedicated to supporting the LGBTQIA+ community. My approach to therapy fosters a safe and comfortable environment for all clients, promoting healing and growth.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling. Over the course of my career, I’ve worked in both community clinics and private practice settings, supporting clients with a wide range of mental health needs. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia. In addition to my formal education, I’ve completed specialized trainings in gender-affirming care, consensual non-monogamy, and kink-aware practices. My goal is to provide affirming, inclusive, and collaborative therapy for clients across diverse identities and relationship structures.
I offer individual counseling for clients ages 11 and older, providing a supportive space to explore emotions, build coping skills, and foster personal growth. My approach is affirming, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s needs.
I also provide relationship counseling for couples and polycules, helping partners strengthen communication, navigate challenges, and build connection through understanding and trust. All relationship structures, identities, and orientations are welcome.
My approach to therapy is laid back and collaborative, because I know that the therapeutic relationship is foundational to healing and growth. I understand the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, and I strive to offer gender-affirming care that respects and uplifts your identity. I utilize a blend of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Person-Centered Therapy. This allows me to tailor sessions to your specific needs.
One-on-one sessions to address personal mental health challenges.
Sessions with two or more partners to discuss challenges, improve communication, and strengthen connection within the relationship.
This is a chance for you to ask questions about the therapy process, and share a bit about what you’re looking for. It also gives us both the opportunity to see if we might be a good fit for working together.
