Iām a queer, nonbinary, femme, white/Latinx therapist. I work with individuals and those in partnerships, as well as, alternative or non-traditional relationship models.
My background includes serving as a crisis counselor in a local Brooklyn emergency department providing support and care to survivors of sexual assault and intimate partner violence, running group therapy for prisoners detained on Rikers Island, and working creatively as a human-centered product designer.
I endeavor to hold space compassionately, empathically and to be present however clients need ā non-judgmentally seeing and positively affirming their strengths and struggles. We will work together practically and utilize various therapeutic modalities ranging from relational, CBT, Narrative, Somatic, EMDR and Hypnotherapy to rewire neural pathways and draw upon inner resources to help you feel better and get to where you want to go.
We live in a world full of racism, transphobia, homophobia, fatphobia, and misogyny that is oppressive and isolating. The shame and rejection we experience can become ever-present in our minds. I see sex and pleasure as empowering ways to heal. My hope is to bring you closer to fully loving and radically accepting yourself.

Hello, I am Michael Guichet, a licensed psychotherapist, specializing in sex therapy. I work to help individuals, partners, and couples to connect on the things that are not being talked about. Often people believe they are broken or their desires are shameful and I work to create change and facilitate communication. Let me work with you on changing the patterns in your life.
Specializing in sex therapy means I work with individuals, couples, partners, and families in monogamous, Poly, open, LGBTQQIA, kink, and BDSM communities. I also work with sexual dysfunction and disorder. It is my passion to work to heal shame and facilitate communication around my client’s identity, relationship orientation, sexual orientation, sexual behavior, and many more aspects of the sexual experience.
I am Poly and open knowledgeable, kink and BDSM knowledgeable, LGBT affirming, queer affirming, asexual affirming, and sex worker friendly. I can do teletherapy (therapy over the internet) in the state of California.

I have worked with LGB, trans and gender nonconforming, and poly/kink individuals for more than 20 years. My approach is affirming with regard to these and other identities and lifestyles, while addressing individual, relationship and societal issues that impair functioning or negatively impact quality of life in all its spheres. In working with LGBTQI people and others with marginalized identities, I work from an approach informed by a minority stress perspective, which encompasses both vulnerability and resilience.* Clinical issues I address include those related to anxiety, depression, trauma, sexual dysfunction, substance abuse and other compulsive behaviors, relationship and intimacy difficulties.
*I and my co-author, Rylan J. Testa, Ph.D., developed the Minority Stress Model for clinical work with transgender and gender nonconforming individuals, which we presented in our seminal article in Professional Psychology: Research and Practice in 2012.
Your professional specialties and skills: Individual and relationship therapy and psychological assessment (including assessment for gender-confirming interventions). When doing assessment for gender-confirming interventions, I adhere to the current WPATH Standards of Care.
Populations served: Adolescents, adults and older adults. For trans and gender nonconforming individuals, my work starts with puberty; otherwise my work starts at 14 years old.

I believe that every person has the strength and will to achieve their desired outcomes. My role is to provide you with the tools, support, education, accountability, and environment to help you get there. For shorter-term treatment we will use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. For longer-term therapy, we will also draw on Psychodynamic Therapy and Self Psychology. Regardless of the approach, I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust is the key.
Areas of specialization include: anxiety, depression, stress, career direction, academic stress, trauma, and spirituality. I work with men’s issues, high school students and their families, parents, and individuals.
I offer a collaborative and client-centered approach to psychotherapy. Together we will work to create authentic and meaningful experiences that facilitate change in your life. I am happy to meet with you to learn more about your goals. Please contact me for a free initial consultation.

Hello, Iām Michele (she/they). I offer time-limited and open-ended counselling to individuals (18+) online and in-person from my therapy room in North London (N19).
I work with people on a variety of issues and welcome enquiries from everyone. Some of the areas I have a particular interest in include:
I also have experience working with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, family dynamics, coping with stress and self-acceptance.
As an Integrative Therapist, I draw from a variety of theories and practical techniques depending on what resonates with you. Using an affirming, intersectional, collaborative and non-judgemental approach, I will support you to explore and make sense of your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and their impact. I will help you figure out how to move forward in a way that feels right for you, and leave you with the confidence and ability to make use of inner resources and external tools when therapy ends.
I am queer-friendly and affirming of non-binary, trans and GNC folks. I work from an anti-oppressive position and my practice is always consent-led, non-pathologising and trauma informed.
