Chris Paton

Queer, kinky, poly, ENM, trans — these aren't just boxes that I check. They're communities that I know deeply, both personally and through over a decade of clinical work. If you've wondered whether a therapist will truly get your life without judgment or unsolicited education, you won't have to explain yourself here. Whether it's anxiety, depression, identity, or relationship dynamics, I offer a space where you can show up fully as yourself. My approach is grounded in Person-Centered Therapy — you're met with unconditional positive regard, no agenda. I draw from other evidence-based approaches depending on what you need, because therapy isn't one-size-fits-all and neither are you. We will work collaboratively, at your pace, toward what actually matters to you. I bring to this work not just clinical expertise, but lived experience and genuine curiosity. Therapy isn't about fixing you — it's about supporting you in becoming more fully yourself.
