WE ARE FIERCE. AND WE CAN EXPERIENCE JOY.

My mission is to aid gender and sexually diverse individuals and communities find joy through my psychotherapy, public speaking, writing, and activism… and to change the world.

You should never have to justify your identity to a healthcare provider. I provide culturally competent, compassionate, and affirming psychotherapy where we can safely ask questions to help you make your own conscious decisions about your life. As a therapist with nearly 20 years experience, our sessions are nonjudgmental and client-centered. If you are so minded, we can simultaneously investigate issues of existential meaning.

Our goal together is your happiness. Whether you identify as transgender, lesbian, gay, bisexual, nonbinary, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, kinky, queer, questioning, pansexual, asexual, detransitioner/retransitioner, Dominant, submissive, a sex worker, monogamous, polyamorous, unicorn, neurodivergent, neurospicy, or neurotypical... even cisgender, straight/hetero, or vanilla… I assist people of all genders and sexualities.

I am also devoted to education – of other providers, of allies, of organizations – and I share my expertise on gender and sexual diversity through books and other writing, as well as through clinical supervision. I have provided several hundred lectures, workshops, and interviews throughout the United States and in Europe. I also have served on numerous boards and in other advocacy projects; all this to improve the cultural environment in which we live. And I have access to many resources you may need.

We can be defiant against the current physical and legislative assaults on our identities where ‘they’ bully the vulnerable, inciting hate, violence, fear, and despair. If you, like so many, are feeling distressed about the current world… I can provide support and hope.
