Hi - I'm Jess Romeo! (he/they)
I help you move from good intentions to grounded, affirming practice.
I’m a PMHNP, clinical social worker, and trans guy with a passion for helping providers show up with more clarity, courage, and care.
My work blends Western medicine with holistic, trauma-informed, and community-rooted approaches to offer care that honors the complexity of queer and trans lives—clinically, culturally, and politically.
Whether through clinical care, professional training, writing, teaching, or hosting the Gender IQ Podcast, everything I do is grounded in the belief that affirming care isn’t just about what we know, but how we listen, unlearn, and act.
As the founder of my gender IQ
I create educational programs that challenge dualistic thinking, and support providers in practicing with nuance, humility, and relational integrity.
At the heart of it all, I’m here to build brave spaces where practitioners can grow—not just in skill, but in conscience—
without losing sight of the dignity, resilience, and truth of the communities we serve.
