Updated May 23, 2023

Roamers Therapy was created by Shaysa Villa (she/they) with an abstract idea of helping individuals gain insight, purpose, and meaning through navigating identity, relationships, trauma. We intimately understand how hard it can be to find a modern and down-to-earth therapist that understands how our our identities are entangled with other issues. Each member of our clinical team prioritizes a culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming approach and we work particularly well with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and relational stressors. This may be an overwhelming point in your life, but pursuing psychotherapy can be one of the most transformative experiences you can take to heal & grow. Whether you are attending individual therapy or couples therapy, our role will be to be by your side and help you explore and identify unclear reasons that prevent you from living or having your envisioned life.
