2SLGBTQIA+
Being a member of the community myself, I have some experience and understanding of what it's like to navigate relationships in the world that "others" people like you. I also recognize that every individual's path is different, so I stay curious and committed to unlearning internalized homophobia, transphobia, sexism, and colonialism. Together, we can explore your identity, desires, and relationships with biological and chosen family, partners, colleagues, and friends. I'm here to support you in navigating the world that isn't always as warm and welcoming as it should be, and to support you in finding self-compassion, confidence, and acceptance.
Common Themes
Identity Exploration
Whether you're just beginning to explore your gender or sexual identity or want deeper support, this is a space to gain clarity about who you are without pressure to have it all figured out.
Dating & Relationships
Dating and partnership can come with a different set of questions and dynamics. We can explore communication, disclosure, and building relationships that fit your identity and values.
Coming Out
Coming out isn't a single moment; often, it's an ongoing process, repeated across different relationships and contexts. I can support you in deciding if, when, how, and to whom.
Minoritized Stress
Navigating a world that isn't always safe or accepting takes a toll. I can support you in processing discrimination, microaggressions, and the exhaustion that can come with challenging the "norm".
Family Dynamics
Whether your biological or chosen family members are affirming and supportive or distant and fearful, we can work on setting boundaries, navigating difficult conversations, and building the relationships you deserve.
For the Family
Are you the one struggling with acceptance and are unsure how to be supportive to someone in your family? I can help you unpack what's keeping you stuck, process the associated grief, and repair the relationship that's important to you.
