Psychotherapists - Licensed or Registered

As someone with the interest and courage to follow your heart, you find there are a number of questions that arise with a need for objective, educated, unbiased and helpful answers as you proceed to explore a new path in relationships. I have many years of experience with alternative lifestyles. My approach is to listen to YOU - there is not a simple answer for everyone. You need YOUR solution, not everyone else’s. I will listen thoroughly, discuss, and then offer all possible options for you to make an informed decision. I offer ideas that have worked for others in the poly lifestyle and allow you to pick and choose.

What are not as apparent as ideas are the various feelings that subtly arise - fears, doubts, jealousy, anxiety, anger, depression…and all need to be recognized, processed and understood. We aren’t as aware of our feelings as we are of our ideas and thoughts, and feelings drive our behavior. We act out at times and don’t understand why, or where that behavior came from. Understanding is the best management process - you can't control what you don’t understand.

My fees are reasonable - I will work with you so that the fee doesn’t interfere with your receiving the assistance you need. I respect your individual desires, needs and wants. I am available for a brief phone interview.

I believe a welcoming, safe, and supportive therapeutic environment is the key to emotional healing and personal growth. Working together, we will make sense of whatever has become a problem for you in the ‘here and now’ or enduring issues with their roots in the past. My hope is you will not only gain clarity and insight but know you have been understood in the context of your history, gender, sexuality and culture. I believe often when we are faced with fears linked to uncertainty, uncontrollability and unpredictability or feeling hopeless about the future, counselling/psychotherapy can support us to make a lasting change.

Integrative Psychotherapist framework draws from CBT and Psychodynamic modalities. I work with individual Adults 18+ with Anxiety and Depression and Low Mood.

I offer a unique and holistic approach to transformational healing and growth through a weaving of shamanism, psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, and coaching. My relationship with my clients is direct, compassionate and intuitive. In a receptive, caring environment, drop into your bodies innate wisdom, the felt expression of your humanness, and the wisdom of spirit. Internally anchor and strengthen your sense of self while also deepening your connection to loved ones, the world and spirit, allowing for a greater manifestation and expression of your authentic soul.

I specialize in relationship, LGBTQ, and sexuality issues, sexual assault, domestic violence, and trauma recovery, chronic and terminal illness, death and dying/grief and loss, spiritual crisis and discovery.

Special interests include work with individuals, couples and families dealing with alternative lifestyles, polyamory and sex work. Very kink aware. BD/SM/DS positive.

I’m passionate about offering sex therapy, redefining relationship structures, and processing life transitions. I speak English and I prefer to work with adults.

Trust is key to healing, and respect is key to trust. I strive not only to respect your choices but to understand your world and help you in the framework of your lifestyle. Compassionate, nonjudgmental psychotherapy and relationship counseling for individuals, families of all kind, and couples, triads, etc. Poly friendly, kink friendly, pagan friendly, LGBTQ friendly, and versed in alternative lifestyles and subcultures of all types. Your relationships were not created with a cookie cutter, so neither should your therapy. I take you, your circumstance, your situation, your communication/learning style and your relationship style all into account, and this informs my approach. To learn more about what I do and how I think, please drop by my website.

I also authored http://www.polychromatic.com/pfp/articles/howtofind.html - a guide on finding poly-friendly therapists.

I provide therapy to individuals, couples/intimate partners, and families of all kinds, with a focus on alternative sexualities and lifestyles. I am affirming of queer and TGNC identities, kink and D/S lifestyle relationships, sex work, and polyamory/consensual non-monogamy. As a feminist transman, my work is informed by intersectionality and motivated by personal experience with the communities I serve. You’ll find me warm and down to earth, with a strength-based approach that centers your priorities. I seek to support and empower you, as we explore your identities, relationships, and goals, in an affirming environment. I employ a variety of therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic, CBT, and DBT, to meet your individual needs.

My practice largely centers around helping people navigate relationships (including your relationship with yourself). I have a thorough understanding of polyamory and ethical non-monogamy. I approach counseling from a place of collaboration and non-judgment. I use different therapy modalities (CBT, DBT, etc.) depending on the needs of my clients. Some of the specific topics that often come up in-session are communication skills/assertiveness, boundary setting, attachment styles, and how to navigate insecurity and jealousy. I also have experience leading exposure therapy for anxiety.

I specialize in work with adult individuals, couples, and other relationships with a focus in alternative lifestyles such as BDSM, Leather and Ethical Non-Monogamy/Polyamory, as well as trauma, anxiety and depression. My clients are amazing but may feel like something is missing, off or broken in them, with the ultimate goal to have a happy, healthy, fulfilling and nurturing life and secure relationships.

Using a trauma informed lens and eclectic approach, I work a lot with shame and self-compassion, creating a safe environment for people to explore themselves and their world. We are dynamic beings with evolving experiences, so we should be treated as such. My approach includes support, space, solutions and celebrating all that is YOU!

As a neurodivergent person, moving through a world built for neurotypical people can be an overwhelming and disempowering experience. When social pressure or trauma leads you to mask who you really are, it can lead to depression, anxiety, stress, and/or a sense of not inhabiting or controlling your own body. Sometimes, the more you try to fit in, the more alienated you become from yourself and those around you.

As a highly sensitive, autistic, queer, and poly woman, I am passionate about supporting neurodivergent people with oppressed genders, sexual identities, and relationship styles by providing a safe haven to unmask and live more authentically. We collaborate to develop tools to compassionately and courageously navigate the world. I am deeply committed to building a non-judgemental, curious, and compassionate space.

I invite you to visit my website to schedule a free 20-minute consultation so we can talk more about your needs, curiosities, fears, and desires for therapy. I would be honored to be part of your journey.

I offer individual, group, and relationship/couples counseling, as well as therapeutic support for parents and caregivers with neurodivergent children of any age. Please see my website for further descriptions of each of these services.

I am poly- and kink-positive and sex-worker allied. I am anti-racist, anti-ableist, LGBTQIA+-affirming, and culturally sensitive.

I specialize in working with couples and 2+ partnerships, in which one or more of the partners identifies as queer, trans, bi, and/or pansexual. I support the members of these partnerships in building fulfillment and security in their relationships, while also enjoying full expression of their identities. I help each person regulate and understand their own system, in order to have more freedom in the ways they show up with each other. I also work with queer and poly identified individuals who want to develop pride, comfort and agency, and work on their relationships to themselves and others.

I work relationally, creatively and somatically, using tools from Somatic Experiencing and Internal Family Systems Therapy. Our work together will offer tools to help you regulate your nervous system by tuning into your sensations. You will learn ways to support conflicting parts of yourself from a grounded place, so they can work together fluidly.

Working collaboratively with my clients, I provide highly attuned, queer, trans, poly, health at any size, neurodivergent, BIPOC-affirming therapeutic space. I believe a strong relationship between therapist and client is essential to growth and healing. I will work to meet you, and respond directly to your desires for your therapeutic experience.

I see clients over telehealth in CA, with opportunities to meet in person in the Bay Area several times a year. In WA, I can offer telehealth or Eco Therapy in Seward Park in Seattle. Home visits are also available in certain situations, when appropriate or necessary for treatment.

Co-creating a brave space where my clients can work on the relationships with the special people in their life, be it their partner(s), children, other family members, friends, and others, is what I am deeply passionate about. I enjoy working with couples, polycules, families, and people with other types of relationships. Relational therapy offers a unique opportunity for people to grow, heal from painful experiences, and build healthier relationships, whatever that looks like for each client. I will support you and your relationships along our therapeutic journey together by centering your unique strengths, needs, and goals.

I utilize Family and Relational Systemic Theory, Intersectional Feminist-Informed Theory, and Culturally Affirming Therapy with my clients. This includes, but is not limited to: culturally affirming therapy for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), the Latine community, the LGBTQ2SIA+ community, and those at the intersection of these communities. When working with clients, I will consider all their dimensions of culture and their intersectionality.

I provide individual, relational (for couples, polycules, constellations, and more), and family therapy (families of origin and chosen families), always utilizing a systemic lens. When working with couples, polycules, and constellations: I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment Theory, and Narrative Therapy. I strive to provide the most affirming space for my clients. In addition to therapy in English, I can also provide therapy in Spanish.

It is truly an honor and privilege to witness and support clients and their relationships throughout their therapeutic journey. I look forward to working with each client along their unique life path.

I am an LMFT with a feminist, trauma informed, and social justice orientation. My approach is relational and I have just begun to offer EMDR to clients experiencing the impact of trauma. All services are provided via telehealth and in English. I focus on working with marginalized groups including first generation individuals, POC, and the queer community. My clients are ages 18 years old and up.

I am a psychodynamically trained therapist and provide services to clients 18+. My clinical interests include anxiety, adjustment/life transitions, relational stress, occupational stress, burnout, ADHD, self esteem, identity issues, body image and trauma. I am especially passionate about sexual diversity and interested in working with LGBTQ+, polyamorous, and kink-identified clients.

Hi there, I am Dr. Lily Zehner, MFT-C. I am a Denver based therapist who specializes in sex, intimacy, and relationships. I help individuals, couples, and moresomes connect emotionally, sensually, and intimately. My office is all-inclusive and I welcome anyone who is ready to begin their process of deepening their relationships, both with the self and with others. I invite you to connect with me to learn more about me and my practice.

I am a Denver-based private practice psychotherapist who enjoys the complexities of the human experience. My approach combines non-judgmental loving kindness with present-moment awareness and understanding of systems of oppression. I am passionate about working with people who have traditionally been marginalized by society, and exploring or creating pathways towards liberation. I also specialize in trauma and developmental/attachment wounding.

I work primarily with individuals and occasionally run groups. To accommodate economic hardship, I offer a temporary fee reduction. Please call to set up a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if my services are a good fit.

I provide inclusive, affirming, sex-positive and non-judgmental counselling for individuals and couples/partners. My work is centred on the belief that all identities, expressions and lifestyles are valid and deserving of pleasure, safety and joy. I work with folks in polyamorous, multi-partnered, non-monogamous and open relationships, queer and trans folks, sex workers, as well as folks in BDSM, kink, and fetish communities. I have specialized training in trauma, including EMDR, and sex therapy to address a wide range of concerns, and provide surgical and hormone readiness assessments.

I work with polycules, couples, and individuals who want to communicate better and feel heard. My guiding lights are communication, connection, and sex positivity. Relationships with ourselves and others are the lifeblood of humanity. And happiness. With trust and empathy, I help people communicate their needs in new and effective ways, paving the way to a more solid and trusting relationship.

My approach to therapy is integrative, meaning I use multiple schools of thought based on what makes the best for the client. Sometimes we’ll talk about what you want the story of your life to be. We might also talk about getting more in touch with your emotions to chart your path forward. You are the expert on your life and I can help you get where you want to go.

I have a sex-positive approach to therapy and relationship issues. Sex can be an important part of life despite what we’ve sometimes been told (don’t get me started….). I’m also kink-knowledgeable and LGBTQ-allied.

I hold a Master’s in Communication from the University of Oklahoma and a Master’s in Couple and Family Therapy from the University of Colorado. I am currently a PhD student in the Counseling Studies program at the University of Edinburgh. My work is an extension of my Master’s thesis, A Narrative Inquiry of a Polycule. This is a qualitative study into the lived experience of being polyamorous. Geeky research or super fun? Why not both?!

My business is called RISE - Resilient Inclusive Sexual Health Education and Therapy. I provide therapy services to folxs ages 18 + who are English speaking within the state of Michigan.

Clinically, I approach therapeutic work from: a personable, feminist, strength based, queer, humanistic, sex positive perspective. This approach is backed by research driven interventions and education in the mental health and sexual health fields. I bring unique clinical strengths from my time at Michigan Medicine which enhanced skills within the intersections of medicine, psychology and sexual health.

I continue to advance these intersections by affirming the spectrum of human diversity, empowering individual expression, and intentionally tailoring treatment to the goals and desires of each client.

I believe that sexual health is a part of your overall health. Further, I value sexual health and pleasure and sees both as human rights. I seek to support folxs who are looking for positive changes in their sense of sexual self, as well as their overall mental health.

I’m Linh (she/they), and I work with young adults and adolescents (15+) who are LGBTQIIA+, BIPOC, neurodivergent, and/or immigrants. As part of these communities, you might feel anxious and on edge a lot of times. You might be unsure about where you belong or what you need. You might have spent years masking and catering to others that you struggle to understand yourself. You might carry familial expectations on your back and feel caught among cultures. You might feel anxious and out of control when emotions arise. I see you trying your best and am here to support you.

I will make room for you to reimagine a life with hope, care, and joy. My practice is anti-oppressive, neurodiversity-affirming, and LGBTQIA+ celebrating. I regularly incorporate parts work, somatic practices, and guided imagery to gain understanding of your experiences and find answers to your concerns. I draw from various psychotherapeutic modalities and social justice ideology in my work, and my identities as a bilingual Vietnamese immigrant and a queer neurodivergent woman inform how I make sense of the world as well as how I approach therapy.

My style of therapy is one that incorporates asking a lot of questions to help guide clients towards a better understanding of his/her self. Together we explore the impact one's past experiences had/have upon your current sense of self. To create a healthier life for oneself, I believe it is important to be aware of one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors. This awareness is the first step towards creating a different future.

I use a multi-systems approach when working with people. In therapy I will explore with an individual or couple the impact of one's personal history as it relates to current concerns. One therapy goal is to help client(s) learn how to make informed choices about their lives.

My speciality is working with individuals and couples who have concerns or questions about sexuality issues. I also work with people who want to learn how to enhance their sexual relationships. First trained as a sexuality educator, I have been working as a sexologist for twenty years.

Improving your mental health can positively impact every aspect of your life, but it takes significant personal effort. We would begin this work by defining your therapeutic goals, and understanding how they interact with your social context, your skills, your assets, and your challenges. We would talk about coping strategies, self-care, and boundaries. As we worked, you would risk adopting new thoughts, perspectives, and behaviors, and analyze the results of those experiments. You would take the initiative to customize techniques I present to fit your unique situation, and change your approach if it isn’t in service of your goals. You would commit to working on yourself outside of our sessions, where it really matters. And, after all your hard work, you would be ready to celebrate your successes.

I offer telehealth sessions Tuesday through Friday, and in-person sessions on Tuesdays and Wednesdays only. I offer a free 15-minute consultation call to answer any questions, and to see if you think I can offer you the support you need.

I am a client-centered, trauma-informed therapist experienced in working with pre-teens, adolescents, and adults experiencing depression and anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, and shame and perfectionism. I am an LGBTQ+ and poly affirming therapist. I understand the stigma and hardship that can come with being a part of these communities. Whether you are exploring, questioning, or struggling with feelings of guilt or shame, we can work together to build more self-compassion and resilience.
