Using an empathetic and non-judgmental approach, I tailor therapy to meet your specific needs, creating a space where you can freely express yourself and explore the challenges and triumphs of your LGBTQ+ identity. I understand the importance of fostering a sense of belonging, self-acceptance, and empowerment, and I strive to empower you to live authentically and confidently.
Through our therapeutic work together, we can address a range of issues, including coming out, internalized homophobia/transphobia, relationship concerns, family dynamics, mental health challenges, and navigating societal pressures. As a Queer therapist I provide a supportive environment where you can process your experiences, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies.
I am committed to staying informed about the latest research, resources, and best practices in LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy, ensuring that you receive the most up-to-date and relevant support. My goal is to help you navigate the complexities of your LGBTQ+ identity, fostering personal growth, self-compassion, and a strong sense of self-worth.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I believe that as people, we thrive when we fully live out who we are and when we experience connections that are embracing of our unique qualities. I understand that for many, including members of the LGBTQ2A+ community, opportunities for authentic connection and expression are oftentimes denied, minimized, and challenged, at various levels by various systems of oppression. As a therapist, it is my hope to create a safe and welcoming space in which you feel seen, heard, and appreciated so that together, we can explore your experiences and struggles, and help you to feel empowered in your authentic self and relationships. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.
