Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I regularly work with individuals facing a variety of life's diverse challenges including anxiety/ panic, family-of-origin concerns, depression, maternal mental health, transition to parenthood, trauma, grief/ loss, sexual issues, and career related concerns. I also have a specialization in sex and relationship therapy. Please note, I do not provide couple or family therapy services on insurance as these forms of therapy are not recognized by insurances. If you'd like couple or family services, I provide out of network services and can also provide a sliding scale based on your income/ genuine financial need.

My clients are often seeking a combination of clarity, coping skills, and in general -- more ease and happiness in their daily life. I also have a unique specialization in "relationship therapy for one" where we unpack what might be keeping you stuck or unhappy when it comes to your overall relationship health/ satisfaction.

I have been a licensed therapist for over a decade and received my training at state of the art educational institutes including Syracuse University and other hospital and outpatient centers across NY and Manhattan. I have also sought out ongoing participation in professional clinical consultation groups with some of the most influential therapists and thought leaders of our time. These varied and diverse professional training experiences enable me to provide the best possible care to each client I serve. In addition, I also provide training and mentorship for new therapists looking to specialize in sex and relationship health.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Hialeah

Finding LGBTQIA therapists in Hialeah starts with identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist who clearly lists experience supporting LGBTQIA+ people, including concerns related to gender identity, sexual identity, family relationships, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Training in affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health-informed care can signal a closer fit. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their approach, who they support, and what you may expect in sessions.

Hialeah has local therapy options, and the number of LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond nearby offices while keeping care accessible from home. As you compare LGBTQ friendly therapists in Hialeah, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For some people, therapist background, identity, language, or lived experience may also matter. Reading profiles before booking can help you find a therapist who directly names LGBTQIA+ populations and describes a communication style that fits your needs.

Therapy in Hialeah can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before booking. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Hialeah, FL, who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check insurance fit, and see estimated costs upfront, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to book when you are.
