About
Hi, welcome! My name is Koti. Do you feel weighed down and disconnected from your authentic self? Are you struggling to manage your emotions and navigate through life's challenges? I am a therapist of trans and familial mental illness experience. I empower and support individuals in the LGBTQIA2S+ community and your allies to better understand your worth, utilize your strengths and build skills to more effectively navigate challenges you face. Your lived experience is unique to you and we will take a look at how your experieces have contributed to the current issues you may be struggling with. We will address matters of your whole self (mind, body and spirit) as your physical, mental and emotional well-being are interconnected. I'll employ evidenced based techniques to help you look inward and identify your strengths to move you toward your goals. Whether your goals are around managing/coping with depression, anxiety, other mental illness, navigating life changes or coming out/ supporting a loved one who has recently come out, I am here to help. Reaching out and sharing intimate parts about yourself can be scary. The biggest thing I strive for is to create a safe space where you can authentically express yourself without fear of judgment. You are valid, loved and enough simply for being, YOU!
