Basil Guyer
(He/Him/His)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
I offer identity affirming, trauma informed care to LGBTQIA+ transitional age youth, adults, couples & families.
Hello! I'm Basil. I've been in private practice for about 5 years. My practice is trans owned and centered, and I consider myself to be quite literate with gender, sexuality, sex, and all kinds of relationship models. I also hold literacy in the worlds of disabilities, activism, and power. I enjoy working longterm with couples, individuals (18+) and families. My work is informed by anti racism, anti oppression, liberation based practices, and somatic awareness. I am deeply rooted in harm reduction. My approach is very relational, meaning we will co-construct an authentic relationship that is trusting and consistent.
