Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
Over the years I have seen many individuals and couples who are gay, lesbian or bisexual. I am aware of the issues of being closeted and of the oppression of societal judgment. There are issues that happen more frequently in gay men vs lesbians, and I am aware of them as well. Many of the relationship issues are similar to those of heterosexual couples. I have written 4 books on Relationships, and
Relationships are a specialty of mine. I offer free zoom seminars, which are helpful to LGBT
individuals and couples. Please feel free to call for a consultation: 301-229-8000

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.

By incorporating Attachment-based techniques, I explore the impact of early relational dynamics on clients' identities and relationships within the LGBT community. Additionally, I draw upon Mindfulness-Based approaches and Trauma Focused interventions to support clients in navigating the unique challenges and societal pressures they may face, fostering self-acceptance and resilience in their journey towards authenticity and empowerment.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of the LGBT+ community, my approach to treatment is rooted in cultural humility, affirming the diverse identities and experiences of each individual. Through a safe and inclusive therapeutic space, I provide affirmative therapy that validates clients' identities, experiences, and challenges they may face due to societal stigma and discrimination. Utilizing culturally competent and evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and interpersonal therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to address concerns related to coming out, family acceptance, relationship issues, and identity exploration. Additionally, I advocate for social support networks and community resources to facilitate connection and resilience. My goal is to empower LGBT+ individuals to navigate life authentically, foster self-acceptance, and thrive in their identities.

Today, more than ever, those identifying as LGBTQIA+ need support and understanding from a skilled clinician familiar with the joy and challenges of living true to one's identity.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Wherever you are on your journey, I aim to support you. We can work together on defining goals for your care whether it be exploring your identity, exploring if/how to share your identity with others, or coping with other stressors related to your life, we will take each as it comes. For some, their gender or sexual identity (or how others currently or historically have responded negatively or harmfully to you) is at the forefront of their life and treatment goals, and for some it is an important part of themselves but not a current focus for care. I aim to be affirming in all that we do, learning about and supporting you as a whole human worthy of dignity, respect, and kindness.
