Remember that first moment when you finally understood who you really are?

Empowering Trans Folx in california

Whether you're just beginning to explore your identity, already living your truth, or anywhere in between - there's no "right" way to be trans. Your path, your pace, your choices.

Sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing who you are - it's finding people who actually get it.

Maybe you're tired of having to explain yourself to everyone, including healthcare providers.

The truth is, your gender journey is uniquely yours, and you deserve support that honors that.

Or perhaps you're exhausted from navigating a world that wasn't built with you in mind.

This isn't just about transition - it's about finally feeling at home in your own life.

Your journey deserves support that's as real and nuanced as you are, without judgment or unnecessary gatekeeping.

How We'll Work Together

Gender-affirming therapy means creating a space where you can be completely yourself, without judgment or expectations.

I understand that navigating gender identity involves more than just transition - it's about living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy.

Together, we'll create a therapeutic relationship based on trust, understanding, and respect. Whether you're exploring your identity, considering medical transition, or seeking support through day-to-day challenges, you'll find a safe space to process your experiences and plan your next steps.

How We'll Work Together

Living authentically in a world that often misunderstands or discriminates against trans folx can take its toll. Anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges are natural responses to societal stigma and discrimination - not a reflection of who you are. I provide a safe space where you can process these experiences and develop strategies for protecting your mental health while embracing your true self.

Understanding Mental Health & Gender

If you're considering or pursuing gender-affirming care like hormone therapy or surgeries, you don't have to navigate this alone. I'll help you understand both the medical and social aspects of transition, supporting you through each step of the process. From discussing options and timing to preparing for changes and managing expectations, we'll work together to create a plan that feels right for you.
I can also provide the documentation needed for accessing gender-affirming care, working collaboratively with your healthcare providers to ensure you receive comprehensive, respectful support throughout your journey.

Supporting Your Medical Journey

Our work together will be guided by your needs and goals. We'll address whatever challenges you're facing, whether that's exploring your identity, managing anxiety and depression, navigating relationships, or planning for transition-related care. I provide letters for gender-affirming care when you're ready, and I'll support you through the entire process.

We'll work on building resilience against discrimination, developing confidence in your authentic expression, and creating strategies for self-advocacy in healthcare settings. Most importantly, we'll focus on helping you create a life that truly reflects who you are.

Beyond Basic Support

beyond basic

Gender exploration and transition look different for everyone. Some people know exactly what they want, while others need time and space to figure things out. Both approaches are valid, and you deserve support that respects your process. Whether you're questioning, planning your transition, or already living as your authentic self, therapy can provide the support you need to navigate your journey with confidence.

Your Journey, Your Way

You deserve to live authentically, surrounded by people who celebrate who you are.
As your therapist, I'm committed to providing support that honors your experience and respects your autonomy.

Together, we'll work on creating the life you want to live, on your own terms.
