In my work supporting LGBTQ+ clients, in addition to identifying and managing the impacts of traumas, patterns, beliefs and narratives, we focus to identify the specific impacts of homophobia, transphobia, gender binaries, and other power structures that contribute to marginalization.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Most LGBTQIA+ people have been subjected to ignorant and hurtful opinions – or worse, downright abuse. I have been bullied myself, so I have a passion for helping people work through this kind of trauma. The judgement, discrimination, rejection, or outright aggression can be crushing. Having a person deeply understand this and give you solutions can be extremely helpful and soothing. In addition to these and many other unique issues, you likely also have everyday issues in relationships, or depression or anxiety and I’m hear to help with those too.

Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I was in the LGBT specialization during my graduate studies at Antioch University (it was the first graduate LGBT psychology specialization at the time). I then went on to train at the LGBT Center, become a gender and sexuality educator and consultant for other practices, and a graduate psychology instructor who taught an ongoing workshop called "Lesbian Love and Liberation, Working with Lesbian Clients." My practice is known for our work with LGBTQ individuals, couples, partners, families and parents. We are not only LGBTQ affirmative, we are LGBTQ specialized and trained.

I work with LGBTQ+ clients around identity, relationships, and the psychological impact of living in a world that does not always feel safe or affirming. Therapy focuses on supporting self-understanding, resilience, and agency, while creating space to explore these experiences without assumption, pressure, or pathologizing.

Briana Marshall
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Navigating your identity, relationships and sense of belonging can feel complex, especially when you've had to hold parts of yourself back to feel safe and accepted. Many clients come in feeling unseen in their families, misunderstood in relationships, or exhausted from constantly reading the room. We offer a space where you don't have to explain or justify who you are, you get to just be. Together we'll explore your experience, strengthen your voice, and help you build relationships that feel affirming and secure.

Jonathan Kruger Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Members of the LGBT community face unique and multifaceted challenges that add additional layers of complexity to the therapeutic process. It is vital that therapists working with LGBT clients have a deep understanding of these challenges in order to serve as an effective partner in the journey of self-discovery. My work with LGBT clients, as well as my own personal experience, have taught me that throughout each stage of life, LGBT persons are confronted with issues and prejudices that can be easily internalized, resulting in a profound struggle within themselves trying to maintain a healthy sense of self, self-confidence, and self-acceptance.
Indeed, for many LGTB persons, these issues begin early in youth: a significant portion of the LGBT community have faced down unaccepting parents and families, bullies, and, at times, a deeply prejudiced society that teaches from birth that LGBT persons are defective and unworthy. These are messages that wound at a fundamental level and, unfortunately, can reinforce an internalized message of unworthiness and defectiveness. Left unexplored, these external attacks on the self can manifest in many ways: shame which leads to substance abuse, reckless sexual behavior, an inability to sustain long-term intimate relationships.
Another unique aspect of my work with the LGBT community is the continued reverberation of the AIDS crisis that swept the community in the 80s and 90s. While we have made enormous strides in both understanding and the treatment of the HIV virus, learning of an HIV positive diagnosis remains a traumatic life event, where one’s sense of self may become gravely damaged or perhaps even destroyed. In addition, a large portion of the LGBT community directly experienced the peak of the AIDS crisis, and faced the untimely loss of beloved friends and colleagues, leading to intense bereavement, grief, and the relentless death of entire communities. The effects were and are ravaging; the trauma intense and enduring.
Furthermore another challenge facing this generation of openly gay men is that they are the first entering old age openly gay and out of the closet. How to not become invisible to the community, disappear and lose all sense of oneself becomes a vital priority. There have been few role models, no one demonstrating how to age in a successful, happy, purposeful way. So with age comes the loss of physical vitality and attributes, which for many gay men has been the leading currency of their lives. How does one reinvent oneself so as to stay vital and relevant, or risk slipping into the invisibility cloak that old age often brings upon gay men and people in general?
In treating the LGBT community, I strive toward creating and fulfilling a sense of completeness and wholeness within the self. Working empathically, slowly and deliberately to heal old wounds, and eradicate the innate sense of defectiveness. Always seeking to understand the sources from which that sense of defectiveness derived. With insights, understanding, processing and evaluating we then begin to reinstate a sense of enough-ness, perfection (even where there may be imperfection), wholeness, and completeness within and unto the self. It is a journey of self discovery which I have lived, understand and continually work on healing.
Slowly building understanding and conviction that the LGBT person is as complete and perfect as any other differently sexually identified person. The goal is to create and improve a strong, authentic sense of self, not one that needs to be propped up by the creation of a “false self” in order to be loveable or to feel adequate and enough.

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.
