Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered

I absolutely love my work! I get the greatest satisfaction from seeing my clients reach new levels of self awareness & understanding and use those to fuel healing and positive changes in their lives & relationships. Although I have a special interest in helping individuals with the varied emotional, mental and spiritual challenges related to reproductive health/fertility issues and alternative lifestyles/relationships (such as polyamory and open marriages for example); I am pleased to offer comprehensive counseling services for the other challenges that life can bring. - Does online consultation

I am a Relationship Therapist. English is my primary language. I prefer to see 18 and up, but I do offer individual sessions and after a free consultation if we are a good fit then I will see the client regardless of age. However, I do prefer to see those that do not have active addictions, safety risks (such as suicidal ideation, homicidal ideation, or self-harm), or are currently working with someone to be medication compliant with mood altering diagnoses as these individuals just aren’t ready for relationship counseling until they have their individual obstacles under control.

Neurodivergent, queer affirming, trauma informed therapy. There is no one-size-fits-all in therapy. I believe in a holistic approach that takes the whole person, body, mind, and spirit into account.

I am a clinical social worker based in Philadelphia offering attachment-based relational and psychodynamic therapy. I specialize in complex and relational trauma and support people in creating safe(r) connections with themselves and others. My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and affirms all genders, sexualities, and relationship structures. I am particularly skilled in supporting individuals in navigating attachment issues in the context of polyamory. I work with teens and adults and hold sessions in English. Please see my website for more details about my practice and to schedule a free consultation.

As someone who is a survivor and grew up queer and neurodivergent in a small conservative town, I understand the importance of having a safe space where you can explore all of the different facets of yourself. My goal is to co-create an environment with you where you feel empowered to show up authentically, to explore, nurture, and hold every facet of your identity with compassion.

Special focus on:

• Queer and trans folks navigating identity issues
• Neurodivergent folks (including ADHD and autism) working on self-esteem, self-acceptance, and living in a world not built for their needs
• Somatic and mindfulness based work, IFS, and neurodivergent-affirming CBT
• Healing from sexual trauma and CPTSD
• Couples and polycules navigating relationship challenges and communication barriers

I provide Individual and Couples therapy to adults 18 and over. I specialize in LGBTQIA+ issues, relational issues, and sex therapy, utilizing integrative and strength-based interventions to help my clients build the life and relationships they’ve always wanted. I also speak fluent Spanish.

Oh, you hate therapy? I get it. If you’d rather spend your time and money not sifting through your problems in counseling sessions, I don’t blame you. But, if you are missing out on a sense of peace or feel like you’ll burst if something doesn’t change soon, then it’s worth it to invest in yourself with counseling services.

My approach to therapy is direct and genuine. While I adhere to a therapeutic structure, you’ll find me casual and making use of humor— no one wants to talk to a robot.

I work with individuals over the age of 18 & am a private pay clinician. I can provide superbills if you are eligible for out of network reimbursement. I’ve worked with individuals across various lifestyles, including trans, poly, and sex workers.

I founded VNC Therapy New York to provide a healing space for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ humans to reconnect with their identities and explore new pathways to pleasure in a radically affirming and expansive way. Some of the healing has included dismantling ideas around perfectionism, entitlement, and oppression that may be specific to AAPI, BIPOC, Latinx, LGBQAI+ and TGNC communities and which show up intersectionally to create unique barriers to pleasure.

Accepting new clients. I do not specifically work with couples or do family/polycule therapy, but work with poly/ENM-identifying folks on an individual basis. I also specialize in working with LGBTQ+ folks and people struggling with body image, grief, trauma, and depression.

I specialized in all trauma, neurodivergence, IPV, DV, and assaults. I have many subspecialties under this as well. I take a more laid back, genuine route to therapy with my main modality home base being a relational psychodynamic approach but overall being an integrative provider as people’s needs change as do their environments which impact what they can handle and my treatment views. I take a true trauma informed collaborative approach to therapy and treatment as well with the ultimate view of the client as the expert at their life story. I offer individual, couples, and family counseling. I also will be starting some group skills services. I provide services in person and virtually as well as evenings and weekends. I only provide services in english. I work with all clients ages 12 years and older.

For over 15 years I have served the poly community with respect and delight.

Do you want to feel better without conforming to someone elses idea of wellness to do so? Are you hitting hard spots in a relationship but are wary about seeking counseling for fear that important aspects of that relationship will not be understood? I specialize in working with adults and children who have found themselves out-of-the-box in one way or another, whether that be high sensitivity or learning, neurological, or physical differences, gender expression or sexual orientation and expression, or simply an unconventional experience and expression of life. Oftentimes these differences became tied up with hurt and sadness and with coping strategies as individuals navigated a world that often misunderstood them. I use and teach a body-oriented, mindful, heart-centered approach to resolve these hurts and develop new strategies. I welcome the unique and authentic in each person and relationship and honor the ways that each person, by being themselves, opens up more room in the world.

Hello!

I offer individual and couples therapy to California residents. I specialize in cultural relational therapy and work with adults and teens, specifically people in the LGBTQIA+ community, particularly those who are experiencing grief, depression, anxiety, struggling with substance or eating disorders, including chemsex, and using harm reduction techniques. I am sex positive and sex worker affirming, and enjoy helping clients with relational issues like sexual intimacy, connection, boundaries, celebrations, empowerment, and love.

Working in the entertainment business for decades as a performer has given me a unique perception of the world and helped me to have a valuable perspective in helping clients, particularly those in the industry.

Developing new ways to cope and maintain thriving relationships can be challenging but ultimately is an opportunity to grow. Let’s collaborate in a friendly and compassionate space to elicit openness and change towards your goals and dreams.

I offer individual and some couple’s therapy specializing in LGBTQ+, sex and sexuality, trauma, depression, and anxiety. I have significant experience working with a wide range of presenting concerns, and approach the person holistically and contextually. I work with adults. I am an out-of-network provider, though for most insurances I can submit claims electronically on the behalf of patients.
