LGBTQIA+ Therapy
in Santa Barbara
Culturally competent and compassionate therapy for everyone.
Affirming. Safe. Responsible.
I am a culturally competent clinician committed to helping you become the person you want to be—by your own standards and definitions. I won’t offer you a path toward conventional success. Instead, I’ll listen carefully to who you want to become and ask thoughtful questions that help you live your unique life with greater purpose and pride.
Loving Creatively
I provide counseling for all constellations of loving partnerships. Whether you want to deepen an existing relationship, navigate something complicated, or build healthier ways of connecting, I offer compassionate, thoughtful support without prescribing what your relationships should look like.
Loving Expansively
Not every relationship—or the intimacy within it—follows a conventional path. I welcome clients exploring open relationships, ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, kink, and other ways of creating intimacy. Together, we can explore what feels authentic to you while keeping communication, consent, safety, and integrity at the center.
Therapy should be a place where you can bring your whole self—not a place where you have to educate your therapist, translate your relationships, or wonder whether some part of your life will be misunderstood.
I offer LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy in Santa Barbara for individuals, couples, and families. My work is grounded in curiosity, respect, and the understanding that there is no single right way to build a meaningful life, relationship, family, or identity.
Whether you’re exploring identity, navigating relationships, building family, moving through change, or simply wanting a place where you can feel more fully yourself, we can begin there.
