Jim Walker, MFT

LGBT Counselor, San Francisco and Oakland, California

I specialize in counseling lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer and questioning people--both individuals and couples. I also counsel people looking for more fulfillment and love in their lives regardless of their sexual identity or gender expression. I'm experienced in providing therapy for:

• Healing from wounds of many kinds
• Childhood or adult trauma
• Coming out to family and friends
• Relationship therapy with family, children and friends
• Couples therapy 
• Feeling lonely
• Problems with alcohol or drugs
• Feeling depressed, lonely, abused or anxious
• Thriving with HIV
• Concerns about aging

I'm also very experienced in working with gay, bi and lesbian couples, and working with parents and their adult children.

As queer and trans people, we've not only been hurt by being human, we've also been wounded because of homophobia, biphobia or transphobia. The hatred and disrespect has taken a toll on us, making us need help with being ourselves more fully and with having pride in ourselves and our relationships.

I work in a holistic approach that helps you develop skills that last a life time. I explain my counseling approach more at my web site.

The families and loved ones of LGBT people have been wounded too. Society can be harsh to them too for loving LGBT, queer and questioning people. I work with the families and loved ones of trans and queer people.
