Ryan Sheade believes that therapy is a profoundly unique journey for each individual. He recognizes that many people carry preconceived ideas about what therapy entails, often feeling uncertain about how to address their mental health issues. For Ryan, therapy is a straightforward yet profound process: it involves identifying the challenges that life presents—whether they pertain to anxiety, relationships, or past trauma—and exploring them from fresh perspectives. With his rational, pragmatic, and positive approach, Ryan guides clients in uncovering the answers that reside within themselves. He is adept at fostering environments where individuals feel whole, complete, and empowered to tackle their struggles. With a rich history of working with the HIV community and the LGBTQ+ population, he is well-versed in the standards of care for transgender individuals and has successfully supported many in their gender transition. Ryan's practice encompasses a wide array of therapeutic modalities including Trauma-Focused therapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), ensuring that he meets the diverse needs of teens, adults, and elders alike.
