Hello and Welcome!
My name is Ryan Teixeira and I am a part time blogger, full time Associate Marriage and Family Therapist!
I am a queer, pansexual, polyamorous, and transgender man!
I decided to start this blog mostly as a way to connect more easily with other queer and transgender folks. I love to share my own life as well as hear from others in the community. I think that by telling our own stories, we can connect with others and inspire growth within the community, ourselves, others, etc.
Please know that this blog site is all about dismantling the patriarchal, heteronormative, racist agenda. If there are ways for me to continue to grow, please let me know! I am open to feedback and providing spaces for queer folks to express themselves.
If you’d like to work with me as a therapist and/or get to know my style, please reach out to the following email: ryanteixeira@guided-life.com
