(they/them)
Hello my name is Amanda Peraza (they/them). My goal as a therapist is to provide a gender affirming safe space for you to explore your most authentic self! I work with adolescent aged youth and adults to help navigate the stressors and challenges of everyday life and cope with past traumas that are interfering with their current reality. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I come from a gender affirming and sex positive lens. I tailor treatment to each individual’s own strengths, perspectives, and experiences to bring healing and wellness. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the habits and life stressors holding you back. Let's work together!
I am focused on providing support and coping skills to Gender Non-Conforming folks and the Transgender community.
Gender-affirming therapy
I have personal and professional experience with building relationships in a gender affirming lens.
