LGBTQIA+ Individual Therapy
LGBTQIA+ Individual Therapy in Texas
Stigma-Free. Affirming. Safe.
Are you tired of feeling like you have to explain or defend who you are — even in therapy? Maybe you’ve been to “LGBTQ-friendly” counselors before, but left feeling misunderstood or unseen. You deserve a space where you can show up fully as yourself — without judgment, bias, or assumptions.
If you’ve been searching for an affirming therapist who truly understands, you’ve come to the right place.
A Safe Space to Be You
Whether you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, or anywhere along the spectrum, my practice is a space where you are seen, valued, and respected for exactly who you are.
As a licensed therapist in Texas, I provide LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy for individuals, older teens, and college-age adults. Together, we’ll explore what matters most to you — identity, relationships, purpose, healing, or transition — all within a supportive and validating environment.
You may be:
Exploring your gender identity or sexual orientation
Navigating the coming-out process with family or friends
Seeking a letter for Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
Managing anxiety, depression, or trauma related to stigma or discrimination
Needing relationship or self-esteem support within the context of your identity
Looking for an affirming therapist who “gets it” without judgment
No matter what brings you here, I’m here to listen — fully, openly, and respectfully.
Understanding the Weight of Stigma
Stigma, in any form, creates emotional burdens that no one should have to carry alone. For many LGBTQIA+ individuals, experiences with homophobia, transphobia, rejection, and misunderstanding can lead to anxiety, depression, and isolation.
Studies show that LGBTQIA+ individuals are nearly twice as likely to experience mental health challenges compared to their heterosexual and cisgender peers — but affirming therapy can make a significant difference in resilience, self-acceptance, and overall well-being.
That’s why creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming therapeutic space is at the heart of my work. You won’t have to educate me on terminology or justify your experiences. My role is to help you process emotions, navigate identity, and build confidence in living authentically.
My Approach to Affirming Therapy
I take a trauma-informed, compassion-centered approach to LGBTQIA+ therapy. My goal is not only to support your emotional well-being but also to help you thrive in all areas of your life.
In our work together, we’ll focus on:
Building self-acceptance and confidence
Healing from shame, rejection, or family conflict
Managing anxiety, depression, and stress
Strengthening identity and self-expression
Navigating relationships and boundaries
Supporting gender transition and HRT readiness letters
You don’t have to face these challenges alone. You deserve a space where you can speak freely and be met with understanding and respect.

I offer in-person sessions in Texarkana and virtual LGBTQIA+ therapy across Texas, so you can access affirming mental health care from anywhere in the state.
