Getting to know Dixon Kurz
Dixon has worked in private practice since 2022 and has volunteered in community-led mental health and social justice work since 2011. They have experience working with LGBTQ adults across the lifespan from emerging adults to queer elders. Dixon follows a particular focus on working with queer people who want to process complex trauma, explore identities, and take accountability in their lives.
Dixon's approach to therapy incorporates many theoretical frameworks including narrative therapy, psychodynamic theories, transfeminism, art therapy, relational-cultural therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and Mad studies. They believe no one type of therapy can work for every single client, so this eclectic approach allows them to build flexible, client-directed treatment. Dixon works with individuals as well as those seeking relationship therapy. They are queer and trans affirming, kink and sex work affirming, and committed to the practice of interrupting white supremacy culture.
Dixon specializes in working with neurodivergent populations including people who resonate with diagnoses like ADHD, autism, psychosis, and other altered states of experience. They have a particular appreciation for the intersections of neurodivergence and systemic oppression, including but not limited to racism, ableism, and transmisogyny.
Dixon is committed to hearing their clients' lived experiences and helping them leverage their strengths to make change. They practice from the position that therapy can be a collaborative, creative meeting of the minds and that the therapeutic relationship can be a place where people are supported in challenges, not pressured.
