Just like any other group, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) community faces mental health issues and unique challenges. However, LGBTQ individuals are almost 3 times more likely than others to experience a mental health condition, such as depression or anxiety. Additionally, more than half of individuals who identify as transgender experience depression or anxiety. The LGBTQ community is also at a higher risk for suicide. Young people are even more at risk, as they may experience a lack of support at home and fear, hatred or prejudice in school. If you are a member of the LGBTQ community and are facing mental health challenges, you don’t have to suffer in silence. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s LGBTQ experts and get help today.
In West Hollywood, I help people who feel stuck, whether in anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions. My approach is warm, direct, and focused on depth of understanding that leads to lasting change. I have expertise in working with sexuality, gender identity, and discomfort with our body. Sometimes we feel like we don't fit with the world around us or even within ourselves. No matter where you’re starting, we’ll work together to help you move forward toward what you want.

Many of my clients come to me frustrated with their relationships, their career, or patterns they feel stuck in, and are feeling pretty powerless. The source of their pain is often contributed to being mistreated, not feeling fully seen, heard, and acknowledged by family, peers, society, and culture. My clients have a desire for personal growth, to find connection, and to build confidence.

I have particular passion for serving those with complex body relationships, who want to understand their ADHD or autism better, who crave support as they deconstruct their spiritual histories, who are frustrated by vague therapy answers, who fear they are "too much" or "too different". Overall, those who want to find the beauty in the darkness rather than denying the darkness, and who want to sit crooked and talk straight.

Have you ever been told that you're the "Black sheep" of the community or your family, "Whitewashed", "Too South Asian", or "Not Brown enough"? Maybe you feel like you don't belong in your community, but you belong right here! As someone who was raised Indian and Catholic, I've also been called these things too. Sometimes it makes us feel isolated, and we withdraw from the world. It doesn't have to be that way!
