At Lavender Heart Therapy we share values and perspectives on what creates healing. 

We believe community is essential, and we are in community together. When working with any of us you can know that your therapist is well supported, and that means that you are.

We believe in advocacy and all of us engage in some sort of social activism. ​We see the world through a systems lens. So, we talk about deconstructing the systems of oppression you live in as a part of our therapy together.

We love working with activists! You are out there doing The Work, and we'd love to be part of your support system.

The therapeutic relationship is important to us and shown to be an

agent of change. We do not pretend to be "blank slates." You will get our personality in the room with you. We're all weird, a little witchy, gender non-conforming and neurodiverse. Although therapy is a professional relationship, it is still a relationship. And, it's one that comes with deep care and intimacy. We prioritize the therapeutic relationship over any modality because we know that is where the true healing happens. 

How did we make it this far without mentioning being trauma informed?! We work with populations who tend to have experienced chronic trauma. So, we aren't talking about having taken a course on trauma. It is woven into our work with each client. We are assessing for dissociation and we know how to approach your trauma gently. We are not here to re-traumatize anyone with mishandled trauma treatment. 

We think sex can be healing and magic! So, we want sex workers to know they are valued by us and welcome as our clients. 

We want all of our clients to know they can bring their sex lives to therapy! We will help to make talking about sex comfortable from the most shy, unfamiliar with these conversations to the seasoned kinkster. In case you didn't already realize, we are kink informed therapists! We all love working with people who think outside of the box. If you're non-monogamist, polyamorist, a relationship anarchist or a conscientiously monogamous person then you've come to the right place for your relationship therapy!
