Identity Issues / LGBT

Identity concerns, while a broad concept, aptly captures the jist of what can bring people to therapy. Such issues are far ranging, and include but are not limited to:

“The white light streams down to be broken up by those human prisms into all the colors of the rainbow.”

— Charles R. Brown

mid-life transitions,
career changes or exploration,
sexual identity,
pregnancy or planning for the birth of a child,
gender questioning or transitions, or
major life events (marriage, divorce, moving in, death of a loved one, etc.).

As past clinic director of Pacific Center for Human Growth, past director at the Department of Veteran Affairs (V.A.), and past staff at UC Berkeley Counseling Center, I have years of experience with issues unique to diverse communities, and in helping people navigate through major life changes while staying true to themselves.
