LGBT + Q***r + Genderq***r + Non-Binary + Non-Monogamous + Kink Affirmative and Knowledgeable Healing Services Stop blaming yourself.

We live at the intersections of the lives we have been placed into and the lives we would like to see manifest for ourselves. Each of us holds privilege and oppression in our bones. It is how we build up the muscles around those bones that allows us to walk through this world with kindness, consciousness, and agency. Stop focusing on the symptoms. These pathologies made visible are appropriate reactions to inappropriate situations. Our depression, anxiety, inability to move, tendencies to self-harm, and the countless other ways we funnel insitutionalized violence inwards on ourselves and our intimate relationships are a result of an often cruel and dispassionate world. A world that does not honor or hold space for the unique journeys of our beautiful and diverse bodies, sophisticated minds, gentle hearts, and divine spirits.

Hi, I’m Traci, co-founder of Gather & Grow OC with . From my own experience, I know one-size-fits-all therapy doesn’t work. Too often, traditional spaces expect clients to educate their providers and heal despite being hurt by the systems meant to help.
So we built something different—a place where trauma-informed care recognizes how discrimination shapes mental health, and healing happens through connection, dignity, and liberation.
Right now, our community faces unprecedented attacks—laws targeting trans youth, restrictions on care, and erasure of our stories. We know the care we work so hard to build and maintain every day only helps if people can access it!
We have always prioritized putting our resources toward keeping our services accessible and sustaining our team. Winning the Impact Awards would let us invest in visibility! It would help us expand training, expand our services, and amplify our advocacy efforts exactly when it’s needed most.

Your wellness matters and deserves recognition. 🌱

Thank you for believing in this vision with us and for considering us for this honor.

I love how worded this, so I'd like to include it here in its entirety:

November is Trans Awareness Month! ✨🏳️‍⚧️ This month, and every month, we celebrate the beauty, strength, and brilliance of trans lives. ⁠
⁠
We honor the resilience of our trans ancestors who paved the way and continue their legacy as we carry it forward today.

didn’t just fight for awareness and inclusion, she encouraged us to shift how we understood the container itself and our part in it.

Her ethos is so fitting in these times when so much feels broken. Here’s to honoring her life by continuing her work of building a world that holds all of us. ❤️

Deep gratitude, Alice Wong, 3.24.74-11.14.25

Gentle reminder: you are resilient. 💛

During tough times, our minds can feel overwhelmed—and that's okay. It's not a sign of weakness; it's part of being human.

But here's the truth: you are stronger than you think. Every challenge you've faced, every moment you've pushed through, has built the resilience that lives within you today. 💪✨

Resilience isn't about never struggling—it's about continuing to move forward, even when it's hard. It's about showing up for yourself, one step at a time.

And remember: you don't have to do this alone. Support is always available, whether that's through therapy, community, loved ones, or simply giving yourself permission to rest and heal.

You are resilient. You are worthy. You are enough. 🌿

If you're going through a tough time and need support, I'm here. Reach out anytime. 💛

✨ Gentle reminder: Let’s not be overwhelmed into inaction.

Hey there! 👋 I'm so glad you're here.
Whether you're new to my page or have been following along for a while, I wanted to take a moment to reintroduce myself and share how I can support you.

I'm Traci Medeiros (she/they), a licensed therapist, speaker, coach, and Educational Director at Gather & Grow OC. I'm passionate about creating affirming, inclusive spaces where folx can explore their authentic selves and build the relationships and lives they deserve.

Here's what I specialize in:
💛 LGBTQ+ Identity & Q***r Affirmation – Supporting q***r, trans, and gender-expansive individuals in navigating identity, coming out, and living authentically.
💛 B**M & Kink-Affirming Therapy – Creating a shame-free space to explore kink, consent, power dynamics, and sexual wellness.
💛 Relationship Therapy – Working with individuals, couples, and polyamorous/ENM folx to build healthy communication, trust, and connection.
💛 POC Lived Experiences – Centering the unique experiences of BIPOC folx, including racialized trauma, cultural identity, and intersectionality.
💛 Intergenerational Trauma – Healing the wounds passed down through generations and reclaiming your narrative.
💛 Mind-Body Connection – Integrating somatic practices to help you reconnect with your body, release trauma, and find grounding.

My approach is rooted in compassion, liberation, and the belief that you are the expert of your own experience. I'm here to walk alongside you as you heal, grow, and step into your power. ✨

If you're ready to take the next step—or if you know someone who could benefit from support—I'd be honored to work with you.
