Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Do you find yourself hiding or pretending in order to avoid conflict or discomfort from others? Do expectations from others not align with what’s true to you? Does your gender identity fall between the binary, or are you in the process of transitioning?
You deserve a life where you are authentically YOU!
Living out and proud isn’t easy...
It can be difficult to connect with others, especially when you don’t feel connected with yourself. You’re infested with thoughts and worries that make you hesitate from doing things that are good for you. You’re scared of how others will treat you, and you aren’t sure how to handle these difficult conversations and situations. You feel pressure to have everything figured out before you are allowed to say who you are. You may find yourself avoiding situations, or holding yourself back from other people. Sometimes you feel selfish for wanting to prioritize yourself over the convenience of others. You feel disconnected from society, your sense of self, and even your own body. You’re scared to embrace change and the consequences that come with it.
I Will Help You:
Process microaggressions and trauma.
Learn practical skills to overcome the fear and anxiety that make you hesitate from stepping into your identity.
Navigate potential blowout during and after coming out.
Clearly set and maintain boundaries in a way that is kind to yourself and others.
Confidently ask for what you want, and declare what you need — without feeling guilty.
Develop a strong, positive sense of self that is balanced and well-rounded.
Connect with your intuition, and learn to listen to it.
Cultivating a positive sense of self may not be easy, but it can be simple!

Jeffrey Gianelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I know what it is like. We still live in a world where sadly there is hatred and violence. Even if you've never faced this yourself, the fact that it is there can affect you on a deep level. Fortunately the world is changing, but we still have a long way to go. Many of us as LGBTQIA+ individuals struggle with issues like depression or anxiety, especially social anxiety, chronic feelings of shame or worthlessness. Perhaps we are misunderstood or have been made to feel less-than due to our gender identity or non-binary status. I am someone who can listen and understand, and help you get to the roots of whatever might be holding you back.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, 107939
As a part of the community myself, I have focused most of my career in supporting the LGBTQ+ community and any other marginalized individual. I have experience in both gender and sexual identities (as well as a combination of the two). Nearly 90% of my clients are within the community. I know provide sliding scale EMDR options as this amazing treatment should be accessible to all.
