California Telehealth Counseling For Transgender and Non-Binary People
Need support from a therapist who understands gender identity?
- Are you struggling with your gender identity?
- Do you need a therapist who can support and guide you on your way to a transition?
- Are you transgender but want therapy for other problems and need a therapist you don’t need to train in gender issues?
- Do you have a non-binary identity?
I provide transgender and queer affirming therapy for my clients. I have a strong commitment, and many years of experience, helping people who are struggling with their gender identity. Working with people with gender identity issues is a priority for me and in my practice, I see many such clients.
I work with people no matter where they are in their process. I allow you to define your gender identity in the way that best fits you, not the way society says you should be. I am familiar with local resources and a member of WPATH. If you choose a medical route to transition I will work with you to make sure you get the services you need. I am not just a counselor but an advocate for you.
My building is in a two-story office and in the upstairs office, there are two bathrooms that are not gender specific. I want my office to be a safe place for everyone.

I recorded a presentation on Affirmative Counseling for Transgender and Gender Non–Conforming Clients as part of an online class I offer. For those interested in my approaches to counseling please listen to the video below.
I recently obtained my WPATH Certification for Transgender Health. While WPATH remains a controversial organization. I do believe there needs to be a standard of training that should be met before working with the community. Right now WPATH is the only organization certifying this level of training so I obtained the certification.
