Online therapy · Illinois & Michigan
A grounded, affirming space for identity, intimacy, trauma, and grief.
I’m E.t. Townsend (they/them), a nonbinary Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist. I work with people exploring gender, sexuality, kink, and relational complexity and with the grief and trauma that often travel alongside.

You might be here because
You're stuck in cycles of overwhelm, or questioning the stories you've been told about who you are.
Maybe you long for connection and struggle with vulnerability, trust, or belonging. Maybe grief has settled into your body. Whatever brought you here, your experiences matter and you don’t have to navigate this alone.
Nothing about you needs translating
Queer, trans, kinky, polyamorous, disabled, or all of the above you won't spend sessions educating your therapist.
Your nervous system sets the pace
Polyvagal-informed and somatic work means we build capacity before we go toward what's hard.
Care should be reachable
Insurance in network, a sliding scale, superbills, and early-morning slots before the workday.
