LGBTQAI+ Affirming Therapists

Jennifer Brown MA, LPC
CoOwner

You are not alone! I identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ Community.  The greatest lessons in my life have been watching individuals who have had the strength to experience their true capacity by choosing to enrich their personal lives. Sometimes I have watched this capacity by experiencing someone’s ability to embrace his or her unique talents and succeed beyond expectation. Many times it has been in an individual’s capacity to personally dig deeper during a “dark night.” Embracing my own unique strengths and digging deeper during the challenging periods of my life. These have directly impacted my passion in providing counseling to individuals, couples and groups. . My personal events and the events I have experienced throughout my life directly influence my ability to meet you where you are at presently. I have experienced life and its challenges. They can be overcome! Many times this painful journey leads a person to his/her greatest lesson, which is strength.

​I have worked with individuals, couples and groups for the past 25 years and I am excited to continue this journey with you. I am committed to the Independent Living Philosophy of service provision where “the person comes first and always knows what is best in his/her life”. It would be my pleasure to stand with you during your struggles and provide personalized therapy. Lean into fear and celebrate your unexpected successes!

As an art therapist and sex therapist in training, I see our work together as sacred, deeply rooted in trust and respect. The therapy I offer is creative arts-based, person-centered, trauma-informed, feminist-relational, and sex-positive. My role as a therapist is not to provide you with answers, rather, I will walk alongside you as you carve your path of healing, explore your truths, and deepen your relationship with self and others.

Art therapy is the creative process of healing psychological wounds by engaging in expressive techniques that provide an emotional outlet and serve as a mirror, reflecting our otherwise hidden patterns. In honor of the inherent vulnerability of creative emotional expression, I strive to provide a therapeutic space founded on unconditional empathy and care, within which, the constellation of your human experience is witnessed and respected. Together, we will design a unique treatment plan in support of your therapeutic goals, utilizing your creativity in whatever capacity feels most nourishing for you.

No experience with art or art materials is needed.

Every day our life is shaped by the people we meet and the relationships we nurture, and the communities that we grow and live within. I want to offer a space where we can explore your story together at your own pace. A story that truly reflects who you are, and your story is a collaborative process where we will face life's challenges side by side. I have a deep commitment to creating a space where you will feel genuinely seen, heard, and valued just as you are.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) with 8 years of experience working with children from the ages of 11-20 years old. In my years of working with kids I provided support in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, grief, post-traumatic stress disorder, anger management, life transitions, identity challenges, and much more.

Some of the approaches that I utilize are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help individuals and families achieve emotional healing and personal growth.

Safyr Padilla MA, LPC

Life challenges can make us feel less like ourselves.I provide a safe, non-judgement space to work through these transitions in life. My goal is to walk alongside you to help reduce symptoms and gain a feeling of control again.

My passion in the mental health field started in domestic violence and grief, but has shifted to trauma and grief work. Often times these impacts can make us feel out of control; I utilize therapeutic approaches such as: EMDR, IFS and DBT to help reduce physiological symptoms, gain skills and deeper insight.

My therapeutic scope encompasses support for trauma, depression, anxiety and grief. I believe deep healing can be done with the help of therapeutic relationships and different perspectives and encouragement of empathy.
