I am a queer nonbinary therapist who specializes in working with three niches of clients. 1) trans kids & teens and their families. 2) adults struggling with grief around chronic illness, pain, & disability and 3) queer couples counseling. Art therapy, EMDR, somatic work, and psychedelic-assisted-therapy (with the adults) can be game-changers. I offer mental health counseling & art therapy in WA, OR, and art therapy in California. Contact me for more infor on EMDR and KAP or read my website.
The problem you may have found with conventional therapeutic treatment is they are left-brain, cognitive, & logical. Including body work, creativity & imagination, can help us feel we belong to the universe, our families/communities, and ourselves.
You're going through a lot. It takes courage to look for a therapist. There is a solution to feeling better physically, emotionally, spiritually and being more connected to your community. I'd love to introduce you to alternative therapies.

I can help people with anxiety, stress, depression, and grief. We gather information about you & how you solve life problems. I will reorient and encourage you, noting your strengths. We can use art making, mindfulness, and body work in therapy. If you are spiritual, this can be incorporated into therapy, if you have religious trauma, we can use a secular approach. Therapy can even be fun!

I prefer to listen and validate your experience with nonjudgment and compassion. I use my theoretical foundations to help you understand why you may be doing life the way you are. This leads to insight which can reduce negative symptoms including stress responses. Coming home to yourself is key. Art therapy can help.
