Hi, my name is Juliana! I have been in practice for 3 years, working to help my clients better understand their experiences, and more effectively navigate intimate relationships and daily life. I take an eclectic approach to assisting clients, which can be tailored to clients unique needs and personality styles.
Hi, I’m Jen, and I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a mental health therapist with experience in the field since 2018. I’m passionate about helping people better understand themselves and grow into the lives they want to lead.
My training includes crisis intervention, trauma-informed care, DBT, Functional Family Therapy, and Gottman Couples Therapy.
I work with clients navigating a range of challenges, including relationship issues, anxiety, ADHD, and identity exploration related to gender and sexuality. As a queer therapist, I care deeply about supporting the LGBTQIA+ community—especially in these troubling times.
I am a dedicated and compassionate collaborator committed to helping you navigate life's challenges. My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and deeply empathetic. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by trauma, grief, or the daily stresses of life, I’m here to support and empower you.
In addition to being a LMHC in the state of NY, I'm also just a human gal navigating life alongside 2 doodles and a cat; creating and interacting with nature plays an important role in my life, but before you think I'm just a calm collected artist haunting the woods mysteriously, I'm also known for sitting on a comfy chair for way too long, re-watching the same shows from the early 2000s, and collecting copious amounts of craft and art supplies that I swear I will use someday.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Syracuse
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Syracuse starts with identifying care that is affirming, relevant, and grounded in your specific needs. You may be looking for support related to identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that name LGBTQIA+-affirming care, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse experience, or WPATH training. These details can help you find a therapist whose background matches what you want to talk through in care.
In a smaller city like Syracuse, the number of local therapists with explicit LGBTQIA+ experience may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still letting you use local or in-state care. Beyond specialty, consider availability, scheduling flexibility, therapist identity or background, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you see how each person describes their approach, communication style, and experience with LGBTQIA+ clients.
Therapy in Syracuse can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, offer virtual or in-person sessions, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, then browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
