Finding a therapist who understands your identity, experiences, and the challenges you face can make a meaningful difference. If you're exploring who you are, navigating your gender journey, or trying to find your place in the world, you deserve a space where you can feel seen, heard, and respected.

I'm Sasha Classe, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 24 years of experience supporting young people and young adults. As a queer, transgender, nonbinary person of color, I bring both professional knowledge and lived experience to my work. I understand that our identities and experiences can shape how we move through the world, and I believe those experiences deserve care and respect.

I specialize in working with Black, Indigenous, and other people of color who identify as queer, transgender, gender nonconforming, or nonbinary. While these communities are at the heart of my work, I welcome people of all identities and backgrounds.

My approach is caring, flexible, and grounded in respect for your culture, identity, and personal experiences. I also bring years of experience working in healthcare settings and believe in working together to support your overall well-being.

Therapy with me is a place where you can explore your feelings, build trust in yourself, and work toward living in a way that feels true to who you are.

• I bring understanding, flexibility, and a deep respect for each person's unique experiences. I know that therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I adjust my approach based on what feels most helpful for you. Sometimes you may need someone to listen and give you space to process your feelings. Other times, you may benefit from gentle questions, honest feedback, or even a little humor. I believe all of these can play a role in helping you feel more comfortable and supported. I work to build trust and create a space where you can show up as your full self. We'll move at your pace while exploring ways to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to who you are.

My goal is for you to leave our first session feeling seen, heard, and understood. I know that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially if you've had experiences where your identity or feelings were not fully respected.

We'll take time to get to know each other, talk about what brings you to therapy, and explore what you hope to gain from our work together. You don't need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say.

I'll meet you where you are, listen without judgment, and help you feel comfortable with the process. I want you to know that I'm invested in your well-being and will offer support and guidance as we move forward together.
