Queer people come to us with the same kind of hopes, dreams, struggles, and difficulties as any other human. We treat queer folks with ADHD, Autism, depression, anxiety, Bipolar disorder, trauma, PTSD, relationship issues, dissociation, substance use issues, and whatever else you would want to work on in therapy.

Queer culture and relationships have unique language, dynamics, and experiences outside of cis-heteronormative mainstream culture. Clients often come to us to seek out therapists who are also part of this culture and understand these nuances without having to explain themselves.

Oftentimes queer individuals deal with judgment, rejection, or pressure to conform from their families and communities. These kinds of experiences leave lasting scars and shape the way queer individuals are able to find safety, create and maintain healthy boundaries, and learn to trust themselves and others.

Discovering your own unique relationship and understanding of your gender or sexuality is a delicate and beautiful process. The external pressures to fit in in a cis-heteronormative society affect everyone in different ways and can make it hard to really see and understand yourself. Therapy can help in exploring what being queer means to you as well as learning what authentic self expression and communication looks and feels like.

Relational work is one of our top specialties, and queer individuals and relationships of all structures and configurations come to us to work on building stronger healthier relationships, work through conflict, and communicate better.

Queer individuals born and raised within religions, high control groups, or cults have unique challenges to work through. Queerness is often marginalized or outright rejected in these groups, creating deep issues around guilt, shame, and identity. Oftentimes these groups are governed with strict rules guided by fear and control, making it difficult for individuals who leave to trust themselves or to form their own authentic identity.
