Hello! My approach is centered in the belief that authentic connection with ourselves and others heals. Therapy is an opportunity to dive deep, to develop greater self knowledge, to come into wholeness, accepting and integrating all of our parts and aligning our lives with our Truth and the fullness of who we are. I look forward to the opportunity to support you.
I have vast experience with a wide variety of clients. My professional history includes children living in abusive environments, teenagers who are struggling to access their education due to mental health concerns, families navigating dysfunction and adults dealing with a variety of life difficulties.
I currently work, primarily, in corrections with inmates struggling to adjust to the custody environment. I offer crisis intervention in addition to ongoing support.
I approach the therapeutic space with compassion and openness. I meet my clients right where they are emotionally and in their healing journey.
I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in stress and anxiety disorders, mood concerns, and LGBT-issues.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in San Jose, CA
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in San Jose starts with identifying someone who offers identity-affirming care and has experience with the concerns you want to address. This may include support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, gender identity, sexuality, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or work with LGBTQIA+ adults, couples, and families. These details can help you find a therapist whose training, approach, and listed specialties match what you need.
San Jose has a range of therapists, but finding an affirming therapist with the right availability, format, and fit can still take time. Virtual therapy can expand your options across the Bay Area, especially if nearby offices have limited openings or your schedule works better outside a commute. You can also narrow your search by appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, therapeutic approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist profiles before booking can help you understand how they describe their work with LGBTQIA+ communities and what a first session may involve.
Therapy in San Jose can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From there, you can compare bios, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
