Ryn Rising (they, them)
MA, Professional Counseling Associate
Ryn@bridgestg.com
Hey, I’m Ryn (they/them) a professional counselor associate. I’m a queer, trans, neurospicy counselor and coach who shows up with honesty, warmth, and lived experience. My work is rooted in the belief that liberation starts within, and that each of us can rise from the systems and stories that have shaped us.
My work focuses on LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy for neurodivergent adults, including people with ADHD and autism, supporting clients through late-diagnosed neurodivergence, burnout, identity exploration, and rebuilding connection with their bodies with compassion and curiosity.
Collaboration, exploration, and playfulness is what you may expect in our sessions together. I strive to bring neurodivergent affirming and LGBTQIA+ inclusive care grounded in the values of authenticity, liberation, and connection. I value honesty and transparent feedback. Clients so far have reported that my approach is casual, warm, direct, and a practice in finding humility and humor in our struggle.
Our work together involves exploring deeper questions to build awareness of the patterns that shape our lives, opening the possibility for more freedom, choice, and peace. My work integrates Internal Family Systems, DBT, ecotherapy and somatic and mindfulness-based practices, with an emphasis on compassion and humanistic principles.I draw from evidence based methods while keeping the work deeply human, creative, and adaptive.
Along the way, I have seen how systems can harm the very people it is meant to help. Therapy to me is a space where we work towards resisting oppression and cultivate community and care. If anything spoke to you, reach out for a free consultation. If the vibe is right and you feel as though I can fulfill your current needs we will create new pathways together. You are the driver and I am the navigator.
Outside of therapy, you will probably find me wandering nature, at a comedy show, painting in my office, learning languages, spending time with loved ones, or snuggling with my dog Sansa and two black cats, Melog and Khoshekh.
In addition to my MA with a specialization in addictions, I have a certification in ecotherapy, have attended continuing training in all modalities used, and am supervised my Keely Horsey LPC, Licensed # C2417.
