IVY TIEGEL Psychotherapy

 “Allow yourself to become intimately connected with all your parts.” -Virginia Satir

It takes courage to shine light on the parts of you that want to be seen—this may include (but not be limited to): relationships, sexuality and intimacy; grief, loss and loneliness; anxiety and ADHD. With a spirit of play and creativity, I will encourage you to engage your sense of wonder, so we can identify and build on your unique strengths. Therapy with me is a collaborative process.

Words can be hard to access at times. In addition to talking, we may also use visual and movement arts, sand tray, writing, ritual, and body awareness, as we explore what it means to be you.

Using a culturally sensitive, anti-oppression lens, I welcome people of every ability, size, gender, national origin, race/ethnicity, religious affiliation, relationship style; anywhere along the gender and sexuality spectrum - from teens to elders. I am CNM/polyamory-aware and BDSM/kink-knowledgeable, and sex worker friendly. I also love working with other therapists.

I am happy to provide a free 20-minute phone consultation to learn more about how I can help.

I am holding sessions online via encrypted video, or in my office in the Mission, near 24th Street BART, masked or unmasked depending on current COVID rates.
