Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Many LGBTQ+ individuals carry the cumulative impact of rejection, invisibility, or discrimination. Therapy focuses on understanding how these experiences affect the nervous system, attachment patterns, and internal self-talk.
Using IFS, we gently unburden parts that have learned to protect through withdrawal, perfectionism, or hyper-independence. Our work fosters self-compassion, emotional regulation, and secure connection in present relationships.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
As a gay man living in Los Angeles for over twenty years, I have experienced the challenges of cultivating and maintaining a genuine sense of self while being bombarded with body image issues, homophobia, gay shame, and the hyper-sexualized competitive nature of the gay community. As gay men, our sexual currency can sometimes become the focus of how we see and place value on ourselves. This can lead to addiction, self-loathing cycles, self-harm, anxiety, and depression. I am passionate about helping you dismantle what society, and the gay community has led you to believe about yourself. Together, we will get to the root of what makes you feel centered, authentic, and grounded. I am highly invested in creating a judgment-free space for you to feel safe to talk about anything you feel is relevant to your growth.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MFT
I'm well-versed in the pain-points that come with being queer in America -- the discrimination, the family shame, the religious judgment, the micro-aggressions, and more. Love is love, acceptance is acceptance, and you're perfect regardless of who you love.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
As a fellow queer person, I offer a space where identity can be explored slowly and honestly in the therapy room. Our work will pay attention to the unconscious ways your history, culture, and lived experiences shape how you understand yourself in the world. Therapy becomes a place to make meaning of what has been carried quietly, soften internal conflict, and move toward a way of living that feels more authentic.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I provide LGBTQ affirming therapy for individuals and couples who are navigating coming out, self acceptance, and the impact of sexual orientation or gender identity on family relationships. These experiences can bring a mix of relief, fear, grief, and hope, especially when family responses feel uncertain, unsupportive, or complex.
In therapy, I offer a space where you can explore your identity at your own pace without pressure or judgment. This may include working through internalized shame, fear of rejection, or questions about how and when to come out. I also help clients navigate conversations with family members, partners, or loved ones in ways that prioritize emotional safety and clarity.
For many people, this work involves redefining boundaries, strengthening self trust, and learning how to remain connected to others without compromising who they are. Whether you are seeking acceptance, repairing family relationships, or grieving the loss of hoped for support, my goal is to help you build a more grounded and authentic relationship with yourself and with the people in your life.

Oliver Drakeford
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CGP
As a gay therapist providing LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy in Los Angeles and West Hollywood for nearly a decade, I understand firsthand the unique challenges and strengths within our community. My specialized training in LGBTQ+ issues allows me to create an inherently affirming space where clients can explore identity, navigate coming out, address minority stress, and heal from experiences of rejection or discrimination without having to educate their therapist. Located in the heart of West Hollywood—where over 40% of residents identify as LGBTQ+—I offer both in-person and online therapy throughout Los Angeles, addressing everything from internalized homophobia and relationship dynamics to substance use and the lingering effects of growing up in a heteronormative world. Having worked at the Los Angeles LGBT Community Mental Health Center and trained extensively in LGBTQ+ affirmative approaches, I help clients move beyond survival mode to build authentic, fulfilling lives where their identity is celebrated rather than merely tolerated. My West Hollywood practice serves as a sanctuary where LGBTQ+ individuals throughout Los Angeles can process trauma, strengthen relationships, and develop the resilience needed to thrive in their truth.
