LGBT Issues
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.

Philip Cooke
Psychologist, PhD
Providing LGBT-affirming psychotherapy and assessment services has been a core part of my training, research, and clinical practice for the past 8 years. My doctoral research and post-doctoral fellowship focused on the psychological well-being of queer men and LGBTQ-affirmative health care. I continue to teach in graduate programs and provide consultation on working with LGBTQ-identified individuals and couples. I have substantial expertise in the psychological effects of discrimination, the intersection of race and gender/sexuality, identity exploration, ethical nonmonogamy, psychosocial and medical gender transition, queer men’s issues, and queer relationship concerns.
As a clinician, my practice has consistently focused on the needs of queer people, particularly those who may be on the margins of the LGBTQ community, including trans and nonbinary folx, non-monosexual people (e.g., bisexual, pansexual), queer people of color, and polyamorous and non-monogamous individuals and relationships. I work to understand the effects of other identities (race, class, ability, age, etc.) on my patient’s concerns and tailor treatment accordingly.

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.
