Counseling for LGBTQ Issues

It can be especially healing and powerful to work with a therapist who shares in a common experience. Because of this, therapists frequently choose to work with populations and issues that they themselves have a connection with. As a gay man, I am passionate about working within the LGBTQ community - helping individuals and couples navigate issues that restrict their potential for fulfillment.

LGBTQ Couples Therapy:

If you are struggling with your connection, experiencing repeated instances of conflict, significant relationship stress, or questioning if things are going to work out - you have come to the right place. Turning towards our relationships can feel vulnerable and we often have some level of resistance in these moments. And yet, turning towards is the very first step in creating a fulfilling and meaningful relationship.

Some Common relationship Challenges:

  • Struggling to navigate conflict and communicate effectively

  • Sex and intimacy problems

  • Difficulty with relationship structure - navigating open and polyamorous relationships

  • Navigating monogamy in gay relationships

  • Rebuilding trust

  • Feeling disconnected and struggling to find moments of shared meaning
