Conner Klein
Counseling Intern
Conner (they/she) is a nonbinary transfemme, bisexual, and polyamorous mental health counseling intern who is kink-affirming and sex-positive. They work with queer and trans clients with experiences of anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, trauma, BPD, OCD, FND, tourette syndrome, and dissociation. They use their lived experiences with neurodivergence and queer/trans identity to guide their approach and create a space for clients to express and explore themselves without reservation. Conner believes each client’s therapeutic journey is built on their priorities and self-expertise. They like to introduce elements from various approaches to tailor treatment to the natural flow of the client’s needs. Conner primarily works with psychodynamic and existential techniques, and is also trained in ERP. They are familiar with CBIT for treatment of tourette syndrome, and are IFS and EMDR-informed.
I might be the right therapist for you if…
…you want a therapist who will accept you as you are without judgment and knows what it's like to be in the client’s seat
…you’re neurodivergent and want a therapist who understands what you struggle with, and what you celebrate about your neurodivergence
…you want a therapist who wants to help you thrive rather than just "function"
…you need to let out anger or frustration with someone who will encourage expression instead of "calming you down"
