So your partner came out . . . now what?

Abbe's Approach
Abbe's client-centered approach focuses on YOUR needs, providing the support that might not be found in queer or cisgender and heterosexual spaces. Many therapists are unfamiliar with issues that arise once gender identity and/or sexuality enter a relationship. Abbe is well-versed with the complexities of gender transition, the exploration of sexuality, and the myriad ways in which cis and straight partners respond to these fundamental changes. Together, we can cultivate greater self-awareness, identify issues, and create actionable steps toward achieving goals.
Whether you seek support managing transition, reinventing your relationship, or leaving it behind, let's discover how you can be empowered to live your best life.
When one partner comes out as transgender, gender diverse, non-binary, or gay, both partners may struggle with issues surrounding sexuality, dysphoria, anxiety, depression, isolation, trust, and/or codependency.
Relationships can become more complicated by friends, family members, work environments, medical procedures, and societal discrimination.
You can overcome these challenges, learn how to best manage change, reclaim your life, and reinvent yourself.
