Gianna Kay, AMFT

Hello, I am Gianna. I grew up in Alaska, wandered the planet for a few years, and am now rooted in San Francisco. I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Arizona, where I was a part of several research projects exploring the role of “masking” in society, and the neurological impact of meditation and mindfulness. I completed my Masters in Integral Counseling from the California Institute of Integral Studies. My education there emphasized topics such as our bodies, the impact of the political systems we exist in, and the meaning of decolonization in the therapeutic space, ensuring they were always part of the conversation about how to sit in the therapist’s seat. 

Our work together is a space where we collaboratively explore what healing, ease, and connection mean to you in your world.

I gently hold a goal in mind of helping my clients return to a loving relationship with their minds and body. We all have an innate healing system within us, and the therapy container unearths only what is already there. My "therapy style" merges narrative therapy, somatics, and parts work to access our inner healing system. I work to be sure my lens is always trauma-informed, feminist, evolving, and humanistic.

My specialized interest as a therapist currently is the intersection between sexuality and neurodivergence, both in an individual therapeutic container and in couples. I bring my queer, neurodivergent, and playful touch to our time together. I am deeply honored to be doing this work together.
