Hello there! My name is Justin Altman, and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My approach to therapy is simple; I'm here to provide non-judgmental and positive support to my clients while occasionally applying a little gentle pressure to encourage them to grow and ultimately thrive. While my primary area of focus is working with individuals in the LGBTQ+, Polyamory/Open relationship, and Kink/BDSM communities, throughout my career I have worked with individuals from all walks of life to help them overcome the barriers keeping them from achieving their goals. At this time, I am accepting only clients for individual therapy - not couples/families.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session, my primary aim is to get to know who you are and what led you to reach out for help. I'll also collect some basic demographic information and give you an opportunity to ask me any questions you have.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I employ a casual, conversational style of therapy that leaves room for lots of flexibility for covering whatever comes up in a session. I tend to follow my client's lead when it comes to approaching sensitive topics, preferring to walk alongside my clients to help them through their struggles rather than seeing myself as a leader or expert.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have helped people from every walk of life to overcome trauma, improve their daily lives, and achieve their goals. I have extensive experience with Polyamory, Open Relationships, Kink/BDSM, and the LGBTQ+ community.

My treatment methods

Humanistic

I approach all therapeutic interactions primarily from a humanistic mindset. I listen to understand, reflect feelings to help clients reach deeper within themselves to find clarity on their emotional state, and provide positive regard without conditions or judgment.

So far really enjoying my therapy sessions with Justin. He is very warm and kind spirited. He is very present, and really cares for what I share with him. I am very excited to continue my work with Justin. I feel better after our sessions, but also feel like we're working towards a bigger goal. I noticed his honesty and authenticity, and he speaks a language that's very helpful and simple for me to understand.
