Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
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.

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.

As a trained sex therapist, I have deep respect for the journeys of the LGBTQ experience and acknowledge they are all not the same.

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.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
As someone who is part of the queer community, I bring both personal and professional commitment to creating a therapeutic space that is affirming, informed, and supportive of LGBTQ+ clients. I understand how identity, relationship structures, and cultural context shape our inner lives, and I approach this work with respect, curiosity, and care. I have experience working with clients across the gender spectrum, including trans and genderqueer individuals, as well as those in non-monogamous or non-traditional relationships. Especially in today’s political climate, I believe it’s essential for therapists to be not only affirming, but also actively informed and engaged. My approach is collaborative, non-pathologizing, and centered on your lived experience.

Chris Guthrey
Psychologist, PsyD
As a committed straight ally, I support gay men in navigating mental health challenges by fostering an environment of acceptance and understanding. I recognize the unique social differences gay men face, including stressors like societal stigma, internalized homophobia, and discrimination, which can contribute to higher rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use. By providing culturally sensitive care and a safe space for open dialogue, I aim to address these issues effectively, promoting well-being and resilience.

Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
You deserve a space where you are fully seen, not explained or tolerated. I work with LGBTQIA+ clients from a shame-free, sex-positive perspective, bringing years of experience and genuine investment in the specific ways that systemic harm, family rejection, religious trauma, and identity-based shame show up in our lives and bodies. I am completing certification in sexuality therapy and work from a trauma-informed approach that gets beneath the surface — because you came here to actually heal, not just be accepted. You already deserve acceptance. Let's get to the rest.
