Queer Relationship Therapy for Individuals and Couples

Bond & Bridge offers queer relationship counseling in California and New York. BAB is a practice trained in The Gottman Method with the belief that how we learn, love, lose, and grow happens in relationship with one another.

Relationships are at the core of everyday life. If you’re feeling stuck, navigating change, or simply wanting a steadier way to relate, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I’m Joey — a young queer therapist who loves building bridges and creating bonds. I specialize in working with couples and individuals navigating non-traditional relationships, queer dynamics, and moments of relational change.

Many people I work with arrive feeling stuck, unsure how to say what’s been sitting beneath the surface, or wondering how to move forward while staying true to themselves.

There is no wrong direction to go. If you are wanting to go big and change your life trajectory, searching to learn how to love yourself or others better, or reassess your daily life and goals, I’m here to help.
