Browse Online Therapists offering LGBTQ+ Affirming Care

“In my opinion, there is no one right way to “do therapy.” For every client I have seen, I have taken a slightly different approach. I recognize that having a safe relationship with another human is the most essential piece of this puzzle, and put that front and center. That being said, I do tend to favor certain techniques, blending strategies like EMDR, parts work/IFS, elements of DBT, CBT, all through a feminist, humanistic lens. I will do my utmost to ensure that you experience safety when we are meeting, and that every part of you feels welcomed. And by committing to this work together, we can help you get closer to the most natural, whole, and peaceful state that you are capable of embodying.”

“We are in this together. My style is relational in that I’m actively participating in the session in an empathic and transparent way. I genuinely want to learn about your unique experience so I can better understand. I like to bring humor and levity to sessions, along with honesty and directness. I care about and do my best to create a safe space for clients by providing culturally responsive care. I am neurodiversity affirming and LGBTQIA+ affirming. I strive to integrate cultural humility and examine my own biases as I learn about my clients’ unique and diverse lived experiences. I am trained in EMDR and CPT & I also weave elements of cognitive, existential, systemic, mindfulness, and compassion-focused therapies into sessions.”

“In our sessions, we focus on collaboration and practical change. My approach is rooted in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which I adapt to be neuro-affirming and skill-focused, ensuring our work is practical and tailored to the way your brain processes information. We won't just talk about the "why"; we will focus on the "how." You can expect a session that feels supportive, secure, and focused on real-world results. We will identify your unique goals, examine the behaviors that keep you from achieving them, and replace them with healthier, more sustainable alternatives. It’s an empowering process where you are an active, valued partner in your own progress.”

“I offer warm, person-centered care for adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Together, we build practical coping skills, process distress, and cultivate emotional balance using EMDR, DBT skills, MI, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), to achieve the results you are seeking. Additionally, I provide tailored clinical supervision for doctoral interns, postdocs, and master's-level clinicians (state permitting). What sets my work apart is my background in improvisational theater, bringing spontaneity, creativity, and active presence to keep therapy engaging and human. I hold specialized training through The Ketamine Assisted EMDR Institute, am working toward EMDR Certification, and am currently attending Level 1 Internal Family Systems training. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where we can work at a pace that feels comfortable for you. If you are ready to explore what working together might look like, I invite you to reach out to schedule a 15 minute consultation.”

“I am trained in EMDR (A trauma processing modality using eye movements) and other trauma informed care models to explore the aspects of our past and handle the bigger emotions that could come along with that. Being real and relatable is very important to me in my sessions as the therapist/client connection is what will drive this boat. As your therapist, I can promise to provide you the tools to step outside of your own head and connect the dots that answer the question of “Why am I the way that I am”? Therapy is not always easy and we need to be honest with ourselves with what’s holding us back, but I can promise to provide positive vibes and great support every single time we meet.”

“I don't do blank-slate silence. I'm direct, warm, and engaged. You'll never wonder what I'm thinking. A session with me feels like honest conversation with someone who actually gets it — no jargon, no judgment, no pretending. I blend relational therapy with body-based and brain-based tools: EMDR to unlock stuck memories, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy to release trauma stored in the body, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) for deeper, faster relief when talk therapy alone isn't enough. For couples, I use Gottman Method and attachment-based work to break cycles, not just talk about them. You bring the courage. I'll bring the roadmap. Together, we go deeper.”

“My approach is warm, direct and down-to-earth, grounded in years of real life experience. I bring a wide range of resources into therapy, drawing from clinical practice along with the lessons we can learn from nature and ancient ways of healing and being.”

“I would describe myself as a relational therapist, working to build a secure attachment with my clients and modeling a strong connection to aid with healing attachment wounds. I primarily use attachment-based therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and mentalization-based therapy. I believe therapeutic rapport is one of the most important foundations of the therapeutic relationship and value having a collaborative relationship with those I am so lucky to work with.”

“My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. I strive to create a safe and welcoming space, in which you can feel heard and understood. Together, we'll explore the thoughts, feelings, and habits that might be making you feel anxious or depressed, or keeping you stuck and confused. We'll discover the origins of those influences, and why they may no longer serve you. Then we can work to translate these insights into meaningful change. My goal is to help clients overcome obstacles, have a greater sense of self-determination, and experience more joy and fulfillment.”

“Because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, I tailor our sessions to your unique needs and goals. Our work together can include gently processing difficult life transitions, developing practical coping strategies, and fostering self-compassion, resilience, and a stronger sense of self. My approach integrates evidence-based tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic interventions to help you create lasting, meaningful change. You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out. I know how daunting it can be to share your story with someone new. My approach is warm, collaborative, and paced in a way that feels supportive and sustainable to you. Reaching out is still a brave step, and I would be happy to set up a free 15-minute consultation before you take the leap!”

“My approach is integrative and rooted in an understanding of the nervous system and attachment. I use EMDR Therapy as a foundation, weaving in Polyvagal-informed interventions, parts work, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and Ketamine-Assisted EMDR Therapy™ to support deeper healing and regulation. I believe therapy works best when it honors both the body’s implicit memory and the mind’s need for understanding.”

“I'm a psychodynamic, relational, and analytic clinician who believes the past influences our current life. I seek to move unconscious influence into our consciousness so we can understand its presence and purpose. I think that softness and resiliency are not in opposition and I hope that our therapy together will uncover our capacity for both. I also believe understanding our relational dynamics is essential for self knowledge and progress in life. We are formed in relationship, we are harmed in relationship and we are healed through relationship. Although not a requirement, I believe long term work allows for all of you to unfold in the therapy space and I encourage you to be here as long as you want. There is no rush.”
