Finding Healing and Meaning Together
Welcome, I’m Hayden.
I am so glad you are here. For many LGBTQ folks, finding a therapist who truly understands queer identity and why representation matters feels impossible.
Summit therapy focuses on supporting LGBTQ+ individuals who are looking to heal and find a sense of meaning and purpose in everyday life. Together, we will quiet cycles of worry, challenge long-held beliefs that keep you stuck in self-criticism, explore identity, honor all of your unique parts, and navigate the stressors that come along with being human. You are worthy of healing, honoring your authentic self, and finding a sense of belonging within.
Whether you’re navigating identities, neurodiversity, exploring gender, living with anxiety, or going through life transitions, I’m here to support you. Our time together will be a space where your voice is honored, and your needs are prioritized. Together, we’ll unpack the stories holding you back, build tools to thrive, and create a space for your healing.
If you’re ready to:
Quiet the spirals of anxiety and self-doubt
Feel more confident and secure in yourself and your relationships
Explore identity and values
Break free from the patterns that leave you feeling stuck
Learn to trust yourself and honor your unique needs
Then let’s get started.
