You’re LGBTQIA+ and Have Faced Adversity & Trauma
You’re at war with yourself. Every day is another battle against inner judgement, anxiety, and overwhelm as you struggle to accept who you are and what you’ve been through. The world hasn’t been kind, and you can’t seem to be kind to yourself either. You wish you were like everyone else because you’re tired of feeling like an outsider.
Despite isolating, shutting down, and trying to numb yourself with temporary fixes, nothing is helping. You’re desperate for a change and tired of making excuses.
Being LGBTQ+, the reality is you've likely faced more trauma than many of your peers, especially if you're also a queer BIPOC. That’s where I come in.
I’m Safrianna, a queer-identifying coach offering online services and in-person local to Frederick, MD.
I am a highly specialized trauma-informed guide that uses a variety of modern techniques to help clients meet their goals and overcome the oppressions of their personal history. I believe survivors of traumatic events can overcome the negative stories they tell themselves daily, and I believe you can, too.
Wherever you fall on the beautiful rainbow of the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, or if you’re just an ally looking for an open-minded coach, know that you won’t have to explain yourself to me. As a queer-identifying and LGBT+ affirming healer, I will never judge you for your personal identity, sexuality, or gender! I am simply excited to help you love who you are no matter your labels. If you are ready to overcome what you've lived through, I will walk with you to bring your shame into the light, crack open the “bottled-up” secrets you've been terrified to share, and finally receive the healing you so desperately long for, all without judgment.
I often hear from others that they've felt misunderstood and unheard in the past by family, peers, or even a therapist for aspects of their LGBTQ+ identity. If you've experienced something similar, I invite you to reach out to an LGBTQ+ affirmative person like myself today.
