Ryan Misegadis

I believe that sometimes life throws us into situations we never imagined we would face. I focus on helping clients uncover the deeper roots of what holds them back from living as their most authentic selves. When we endure hardship, our bodies often cling to the survival tools that got us through—even when those tools no longer serve us. Sometimes they fit the moment; other times, they can make things more difficult. In our work together, we'll gently slow things down, explore what truly works for you, and begin the shift from automatic reactions to intentional responses.

My approach is grounded in post-modern, antiracist, decolonial, queer, and feminist frameworks. I focus on trauma, grief, and loss, and sex therapy. I specialize in working with individuals and relationships outside traditional norms, including those exploring polyamory, ethical non-monogamy (ENM), and kink.

I take a holistic, integrative approach, with a strong emphasis on somatic experiencing and in-the-moment processing through a trauma-focused lens. I offer both individual and relational counseling, with a deep passion for supporting the LGBTQIA+ community.

My goal for my clients when they leave a session is to have a better understanding of their experience of themselves. Together, we will sort out perceptions from reality and determine where we need to take responsibility to achieve your goals.
