Ryan Barclay, MC, LPC, CCTS-I
I am a complex trauma therapist and have been trained in a wide variety of therapy approaches. I specialize in providing therapy for neurodivergent, Autistic, artistic, chronically ill, and LGBTQIA+ people. I enjoy collaborating and want to tailor therapy to you. You're the one living your life, which also means you're the only one who can say what you need.
As we learn more about our psyche and bodies through research, the more research is pointing to the fact that our whole body affects how we live and see the world. I practice from a holistic perspective to bring the body back into the conversation of healing. Because trauma complicates our relationships with our bodies, I work with people to improve their relationships with their bodies so that, together, they can heal.
Vibe: direct, personable, grounded, empathetic
*I can provide gender confirmation letters following a single session assessment. I do not require ongoing therapy.
My Practice
I work primarily with neurodivergent folks and view neurodivergence as an identity rather than a disorder. Identity should be a source of empowerment. Together, we can reclaim your identity so that you can be yourself without shame. I also work a lot within Queer and Poly communities. Societal scripts are a burden. A big part of my practice is helping people break free of what they’re “supposed to do” so they can live life as their true selves.
With chronic health issues on the rise, I want to help people come to terms with their disability and learn to thrive in it. As someone with lots of experience around health issues, I have seen how people can lead rich and meaningful lives while being sick and/or disabled. I’m here to help you get just that.
Aside from trauma therapy, I also support Artists and non-Artists alike in accessing their creativity. With a creative mind, we can overcome many of life's challenges. I do this by helping people reconnect with their sense of self so that they can lead with their gut rather than remaining stymied by their critical thoughts and hesitations.
For those of us who take our creativity to the professional level, Artists and Creatives are often financial stressed and disregarded by society at large as someone who isn't contributing to their communities. Not only is that not fair, it's also inaccurate. Art moves and connects people to each other. If you ask me, that's a great civil service. Together, I can help you navigate these issues and overcome whatever blocks you may have in your art and life.
I offer a free phone consultation to make sure we are a good fit before you pay for any services. Email me to get scheduled!
