My Approach to Helping
Hello and welcome. I'm glad you're here. My name is Frankie (they them), and I am a gestalt psychotherapist specializing in issues relating to sexuality, sexual orientation, gender identity, body dysphoria, religious trauma, relationships (monogamous polyamorous), kink, anxiety, depression, existential issues & life transitions. If you've been reluctant to approach a therapist for support fearing that you will be judged or shamed, I can empathize - and I can probably help.
The need or desire for support, healing, self-acceptance, clarity, or greater awareness is part of being human, and it can become especially important at times when we feel uncertain, anxious, doubtful or afraid. You don't have to figure it out alone. Gestalt psychotherapy is a slower, process-oriented therapy ideal for someone invested in a solid, supportive, ongoing therapeutic alliance. It allows for the time it takes to create a safe container for both deeper work and more long-lasting change. You are always the expert on your own experience and have complete control over the pacing and speed of the work we do.
Our sessions together will weave gentle curiosity and open-ended exploration of who you are as an embodied human in relation to your environment, understanding that what is in the present usually has roots anchored deep in our somatic (body) awareness. Contact me today to schedule a free 30-minute consult and let's see if we might be a good fit.
