So read on if: You want to know more about what's going on with you and how you can feel better. Your emotions feel unmanageable because of what’s happened to you. You feel alone with your struggles and don’t have people who understand your situation or pain. Trauma, complicated grief, depression, anxiety, and minority stress from being LGBTQ+ are hard to deal with on your own. You might be suffering from anxiety, depression, unrelenting grief, low self-esteem, gender dysphoria, or confusion about what to do next in your life. Maybe if you read about what's happening with you here, you can start to understand it better and perhaps see yourself in the words you read. There is something comforting in knowing that other people are scared, sad, angry, ashamed, hurt, etc. It can be empowering to know that you can do something to help yourself cope with it better. The blog posts are here to help you do that, and to reflect on how you have coped so far.

When you read about these problems, you can also see how I work with clients. You can better determine whether my style matches what you need.
