Therapy for LGBTQA2S+ Individuals and Relationships
As a proud member of the LGBTQ2S+ community, I am honored to work with you to nurture a life filled with love, belonging, and the freedom to be who you are. These essential human needs are important for everyone.
Our community often faces unique challenges that may not be fully understood by those outside of it. Working with a therapist who is part of the LGBTQ2S+ community means engaging with someone who understands the distinct experiences associated with non-traditional relationships and identities. Whether you are single, dating, or navigating open, polyamorous, or monogamous relationships, I am here to support you through the unique challenges you face.

Welcome, Friends of Doreen!
Introducing Doreen DeVine
Doreen represents a part of my journey as a therapist. My experiences, including navigating the challenges posed by a narcissistic upbringing, have shaped my understanding of relationships and emotional health. In my life, I faced significant challenges, including the impact of negative self-perception instilled by others. Through extensive personal growth and therapy, I learned to embrace all aspects of myself, including those parts that have been disowned.
Doree
Doreen is a crusader for human rights for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and she stands up for Drag as an imporant art form and even community hub for our community. She shares messages of hope, love, belonging and acceptance, and that no one is evil. Even her. She believes that love and kindness should be goal behaviour in every community.
As Doreen, a self-aware narcissist and performer, Darren aims to shed light on the complexities of narcissism and how it can manifest in our lives. Narcissism is often misunderstood; it exists on a spectrum and can be seen as a natural human adaptation. Doreen’s journey allows him to educate others in a compassionate and relatable way, helping those who may also suffer from narcissistic traits to gain self-awareness and develop self-compassion.
Doreen’s purpose of characther is to portray the human side of narcissism, offering hope that through awareness and acceptance, change and growth are possible. We can learn emotional regulation skills, develop awareness of our triggers, and practice empathy toward others. This perspective fosters healthier communication and understanding in relationships. Darren’s experiences working with individuals, both diagnosed and self-diagnosed with narcissistic traits, have shown him the strong connections between these behaviors and often invisible relational traumas.
Whatever dynamics you grew up with may feel normal, even if they were toxic. In therapy, we focus on interpersonal awareness and compassion. Together, we will explore who you are in relation to others and promote self-compassion as a foundation for making new choices.
Engaging with Doreen and Darren
Together, Doreen and Darren are recording discussions of political satire, sharing news, and supporting equal rights through the Friends of Doreen Show and Ask Doreen. These internet shows and shorter clips are shared through social media, allowing an exploration of these themes in depth. We will also present some musical duets that bring Doreen’s character to life, providing a creative outlet for this journey. Check out a couple of performances below!
