Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
LGBTQ+ experiences are deeply personal and shaped by far more than identity alone. Trauma, neurodivergence, relationships, family dynamics, self-discovery, masking, discrimination, safety, and the pressure to explain or defend who you are can all deeply impact mental health.
My approach is affirming, respectful, and grounded in creating a space where you can be real without needing to justify yourself. Together, we can explore identity, healing, relationships, self-trust, and the unique challenges you may be facing while honoring both your lived experience and the deeper patterns that may be affecting your wellbeing.

New Moon Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MACP, MSW, RSW, RP, RP(Q)
People who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, or other gender or sexual minorities often experience challenges that cis-gendered and heterosexual folks do not. These challenges may impact family, work, and social and intimate relationships. These include:
- Coming out: considering, preparing and processing
- Self-love and self-acceptance
- Processing related traumas: ie. bullying, discrimination, oppression, and homophobia
- 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. We value the diversity of human identities and the fluidity of sexual and gender expression.
