Beth Henderson (they/she), LMSW

Beth’s schedule currently full and they are not taking new clients.

Hi there, my name is Beth and I’m a therapist based in Queens, providing virtual services across New York state. I help people develop an integrated and joyful sense of self, specializing in gender and sexuality, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My goal in therapy is to help you build a healthy life that feels good, grounded, and free.

My practice is both sexuality and gender-affirming with a strong belief that you are the expert in your own story. I approach therapy as a judgment-free collaboration, using compassion to examine the stressors in your life and curiosity to build connections between the past, present, and future. I’m committed to holistically helping people of all gender identities and sexual orientations, particularly members of the LGBTQIA+ community, move through the world with self-acceptance and self-awareness while examining the influence of society and culture.

I am genuine, welcoming, and warm, utilizing talk therapy, relationship building, humor, and mind-body work to help you courageously create a roadmap back to yourself and to your body. My approach is anti-oppressive and person-focused, using EMDR, psychodynamic therapy, attachment theory, relational therapy, queer theory, and feminist theory, while encouraging you to reclaim your narrative through the use of storytelling and mindfulness.

I love hiking with my dogs, listening to live music, and rock climbing. I bake the (unofficial) best apple pie in New York City.
