Jude Patton, LMFT, LMHC

I identify as an older transgender man who is OUT/OPEN/PROUD. As a seasoned professional sex therapist, licensed mental health counselor (LMFT), and Physician Associate (PA) with 40+ years of experience, I believe that perspective, determination, and courage can change your life. I am deeply committed to helping my clients mitigate both emotional and physical challenges and to create lasting, meaningful changes throughout their lifespan.

My specialty is working as a therapist serving LGBTQIA2S, transgender, non-binary, and other gender non-conforming clients. I am a “Kink, Pan, and Poly- Knowledgable Sexual Health Care Professional.” I have many years of experience counseling in other aspects of healthcare as well, as a physician associate working in the broader area of psychiatric health care and family practice medicine. I understand clearly the impact of mental health, emotional health, and physical health on emotions, sexual desire, and sexual function. I recognize the significance of my clients’ unique life narratives.

Affiliated with my career as a therapist, I am a passionate advocate and community activist, (with an intersectional lens) grounded in the theories of social justice, animal rights, and the conservation of our planet’s resources.
