Desiree Woehrle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SIFI
LGBTQIA+ competency and gender-affirming care is pivotal to supporting queer adults who too often are left educating their providers rather than getting the care they so need and deserve. If you have felt invalidated, dismissed or judged by your therapist or physician, I'd like to help you advocate for yourself (though TBH this should not HAVE to be on you) and connect with providers who respect your gender, sexuality, and relationship status, asexuality or ethical-non-monogamy.

FREE consultations! Individuals in the LGBTQ community often struggle with confusion and stress when trying to process their sexual identity and the "coming out" process. I strongly believe in the power of therapy to help you manage its symptoms and work towards building brighter days ahead.

I worked as a psychotherapist at the Ali Forney Center in Harlem from November 2015 to April 2023, serving a population of 16-24 year-old LGBTQIA+ youth, predominantly homeless people of color. Previously I was a peer counselor and eventually executive director at Identity House, one of the oldest LGBT volunteer organizations in New York City.

Dr. Ingrid Solano
Psychologist, PhD
I am a member of, and advocate for, the LGBTQIA+ community. I am proud to provide affirming therapy and I have expertise in working with the experiences of sexual and gender minority individuals, and couples using CBT, DBT, and the Unified Protocol for emotional disorders. Together we can explore the impacts of coming out, internalized stigma, minority stress, intersectionality, discriminations, difficult family-of-origin relationships, giving and receiving support, families of choice, intimacy, sex, gender/sexual fluidity, identity, transitioning, and so much more. Together we can navigate the challenges of living in an oppressingly heteronormative world in order to form a healthy and affirming queer identity. Or, we don’t explore it at all - but we remain aware that they are out there and remain mindful. I am also proud to consider and provide capacity evaluations and letters of support for my transgender clients seeking gender affirming surgery.
I practice from an affirming, feminist, and anti-racist philosophy. This means that I unconditionally accept and value my clients’ gender, sexual, racial, cultural, and other identities. My practice takes into account each person’s unique experiences within contexts of social and systemic oppression, and the impact on your relationships. I practice from a place off cultural humility and allyship to black, indigenous, and other people of colour.
I have expertise in treating relationships and individuals navigating the impact of minority stress and discrimination. I practice affirming therapy that explores greater awareness and understanding of the ways in which emotional experiences and responses to experiences contribute to what is going on for you and your relationships. Navigating these challenges in your life has promoted strength and resilience in coping, paving the way for creative and successful approaches for managing future challenges. I help clients see these strengths in themselves, and create harmony and balance in their lives. I bring a stance of genuine curiosity and cultural competence that includes your different identities and their intersectionality.
