Gino Cosme: Expert Gay Therapist & Counselor for Gay Men

I’m a therapist and counselor who understands your experience as a gay man — I’ve traveled that journey myself, and I'm here to help you navigate yours.

I am deeply committed to helping gay men.

As gay men, many of us grow up adapting - hiding parts of ourselves, internalizing shame, or navigating rejection. These experiences don’t just stay in the past; they shape how we show up in life, love, and work.

I believe we are born with the strength and capacity to live fulfilling lives. But when old conditioning and trauma remain unresolved, they quietly influence our choices, relationships, and sense of self-worth.

As a gay therapist, I help gay men break free from these invisible patterns, move beyond survival mode, and step into their fullest, most authentic selves.

Whether it’s dating, relationships, career, or self-esteem, my work is about giving you the clarity and confidence to live life on your terms.
