Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
LGBTQ+ individuals may face anxiety, depression, rejection, discrimination, family conflict, identity concerns, or pressure to hide important parts of themselves. Your identity is not a problem to be fixed; therapy should be a place where you feel respected, affirmed, and understood.
I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space to explore identity, relationships, coming out, cultural or spiritual concerns, trauma, and self-acceptance. Together, we work to reduce shame, strengthen boundaries, build resilience, and support a life guided by authenticity, dignity, meaningful connection, and pride in who you are.
