Looking for a therapist who gets you?

Are you feeling held back by past traumas or reactive patterns that prevent you from experiencing the fullness of life? You deserve a space where all parts of your identity are supported. Many of our clients seek therapy to heal from trauma, break cycles of insecure attachment, or navigate complex relationship dynamics. At Expansive Counseling, we offer a safe, nonjudgmental environment to help you reconnect with your true self and build the life and relationships you desire.

Whether you’re exploring complex relationship dynamics, healing from past trauma, or seeking support for your LGBTQ+, kink, or non-monogamous identity, you deserve a space where all of you is welcome.

We specialize in trauma-informed, culturally competent therapy for clients across the gender, sexuality, and relationship spectrum. If you’re tired of feeling misunderstood by traditional therapists or navigating spaces that don’t fully embrace your identity, our team is here to support you.

Our Approach

At Expansive Counseling, we know that your identity is a fundamental part of who you are. We take an identity-affirming, strengths-based approach to therapy, ensuring that each part of your experience is respected and celebrated. Our trauma-focused care provides a space where you can explore your concerns, work through past wounds, and find empowered solutions. We understand that societal biases, such as homophobia, transphobia, and heteronormativity, can create barriers to well-being, and we’re here to help you navigate those with compassion and support.

We also recognize the validity of non-monogamy, polyamory, and kink as essential parts of many people’s lives. With experience in working with non-traditional relationship structures, we provide a sex-positive, inclusive space where you can explore your identity and relationships without fear of judgment.

Whether you are seeking individual therapy, relationship counseling, or support for alternative relationship structures, our team is here to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to explore your concerns and work towards growth and healing. Contact us today to schedule an appointment and take the first step towards a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Using techniques like somatic parts work (IFS-informed), attachment-based therapy, and mindfulness, our therapists will guide you through the process of understanding and healing from past wounds. Whether you’re unpacking religious trauma, gender exploration, or relational wounds, we’re here to help you move toward deeper self-compassion and more empowered relationships.

Identity-Affirming Therapy

Identity-affirming therapy embraces a positive view of each unique identity while addressing the negative impacts of oppressive social biases.

Whether you're navigating non-monogamy, kink, or questioning your gender identity, our goal is to provide a space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered.
