LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy in Westminster and online in Colorado
I offer individual and relationship therapy that respects your gender, sexuality, and the words you use for yourself. Your identity may be central to what you want to discuss, or simply part of who you are.
You can bring relationship concerns, anxiety, questions about identity, or other experiences you want to understand. I offer in-person sessions in Westminster and virtual therapy for eligible Colorado clients.
What you want to talk about
Your identity is not something to fix. The concerns you bring guide our work. You might want space for:
- Exploring gender or sexuality without pressure to settle on a label.
- Deciding what you want to share about your identity, with whom, and when.
- Setting boundaries with family or talking through relationships with chosen family.
- Relationship conflict, changing needs, or feeling distant from someone you care about.
- Anxiety, self-criticism, or the strain of feeling misunderstood.
We can also talk about parts of your life that have little to do with identity. You decide what needs attention.
How I work with you
I ask questions and share what I notice, with room for you to disagree. I want to understand your relationships and values without assuming what they mean to you. If there is an aspect of your experience I don’t understand, I approach it with curiosity and respect.
For example, we might look at a conversation where you kept quiet to avoid conflict. We can explore what you wanted to say, what made it difficult, and whether there is a response you want to practice.
You won’t be pressured to label yourself a certain way. We can discuss what feels useful to explore and what you would rather leave for another time.
Individual and relationship therapy
A session for you
In individual therapy, you attend on your own. Your experiences, needs, and choices are the focus, including how you relate to others. Explore individual therapy.
Working with partners
Relationship sessions focus on what happens between you, such as communication, trust, and connection. I don’t assume marriage, heterosexuality, or a two-person relationship. Explore couples and relationship therapy.
If relevant to what brings you here, you can read about therapy for non-monogamy and polyamory or sex and intimacy therapy.
Sessions and a first conversation
Standard sessions are $120 for 50 minutes. Sessions with additional partners may require a higher fee or more time; we’ll discuss those details in advance. See fees, payment options, and session formats.
In-person sessions are available in Westminster, and virtual sessions are available to eligible Colorado clients. Clients must maintain a primary residence in Colorado and be physically in Colorado during every session.
You can book a free 20-minute phone consultation even if you’re unsure about therapy or my approach. We can start with your questions. I’ll call you at the scheduled time.
