Activity: Poetry as Queer Resistance: Write with an Expressive Arts Therapist

Too queer for AI therapy? I am an IRL licensed therapist who works with LGBTQ+, gender non-binary, & transgender adults, adolescents, & intimate partners, both in-person at my office in the San Francisco Castro District and online with people living throughout California. I frequently use art, music, and other forms of creative expression with my clients as additional ways of processing emotions and making sense of life beyond just talk therapy. I also offer EMDR and IFS-informed Parts Work for trauma recovery and building stronger relationships. For couples/polycules, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to teach confidence in conflict resolution and expressing more vulnerable needs. I believe living our best lives as LGBTQ+ people is the strongest form of political resistance! And I have witnessed a wide diversity of people achieve that through therapy.
