- Navigating complex family dynamics
- Exploring gender and sexual identity
- Exploring gender identity and sexual identity while in a relationship
- Career and workplace challenges
- Dating and marriage
- Body image concerns related to transitioning and gender identity
- Integrating cultural and religious identities
- Exploring polyamory, sex and kink
- Sexual health concerns/HIV/serodiscordant relationships
We also support family members who want to support their loved one and to process and accept their loved one's gender and sexual identity.
At New Moon Psychotherapy we understand the unique difficulties that come with diverse identities and intersections. Our therapists have specialized training and some have lived experience in the LGBTQ2S+ community. This offers a unique perspective and affirming, inclusive, and stigma-free support.

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.

At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we are deeply committed to providing specialized care for LGBTQIA+ individuals, as we are all queer and trans therapists dedicated to community care. Our practice centers on creating a safe and affirming space where individuals can explore their identities, experiences, and challenges within a supportive and understanding environment.
As queer and trans therapists ourselves, we bring a unique perspective and lived experience to our work with the LGBTQIA+ community. Our therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and a deep appreciation for the diverse and complex experiences of queer and trans individuals. We believe in the power of community care and strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and valued for who they are.
Through a combination of relational therapy, somatic techniques, and trauma-informed care, we guide clients in navigating issues related to gender identity, sexual orientation, coming out, family dynamics, and societal challenges. We recognize the importance of addressing the intersectionality of identities and experiences within the LGBTQIA+ community and work to empower individuals to embrace their authentic selves and lead fulfilling lives.
Our practice is grounded in the belief that everyone deserves to feel accepted, supported, and validated in their journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. We are passionate about fostering resilience, healing, and empowerment within the LGBTQIA+ community, and we are committed to providing affirming and compassionate care that honors the unique experiences and identities of each individual who walks through our doors.
