ABOUT US

Love Positive Counseling is all about infusing every moment with love, for self and others. From love comes compassion, respect, and consideration. We all have the power to change the world with our passion, dreams, and smiling faces.

I have a self-made quote: Celebrate diversity, practice acceptance and may we all choose peaceful options to conflict.
— Donzella Michele Malone

Relationships that value love are more fulfilling, emotionally and spiritually. We can foster more love, respect, and compassion in your relationships through empathic connection. We can heal emotional injuries, inspire more passion, and create the relationships of your dreams. We particularly love helping people considering and exploring ethical non-monogamy (swinging, polyamory) navigate the choppy waters of uncharted territory in their relationships.

The more you know who you are, and what you want, the less you let things upset you.
— Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss

Love extends beyond the connection between people. Love for self is a powerful healer. We can focus on fostering more love for your self, boosting self-esteem, confidence, authenticity; alleviating depression, anxiety, uncertainty; healing pain and trauma. We particularly love helping people transitioning from a conceptualized self based on societal and familial expectations to an idealized sense of self based on their true nature. We are passionate about helping transgender an gender nonconforming youth (13-26), adults and their families who are discovering their identity and individuality.

Because we believe in improving access to letters of support for clients who are seeking gender-affirming medical care, we resist the harmful practices of gatekeeping and believe in an informed consent model where clients can affirm their gender identity without the steep cost of sessions with mental health professionals and reductionist clinical practices. Anna has signed the GALAP pledge to provide pro bono assessments and letters to people who are seeking our services solely for this purpose. If you're in need of this service, please submit an appointment request and email Anna at Anna@lovepositivecounseling.com regarding your appointment request and need for a free assessment and letter of support.

Nothing brings down walls as surely as acceptance
— Deepak Chopra

The therapeutic relationship is sacred, built on comfort and trust, and we appreciate the opportunity to partner with you to improve your world.
