Todd Davenport
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA in Counseling Psychology
Coming out, exploring your identity, and living authentically in a world that isn't always accepting requires courage. As a gay therapist, I understand the complexities of navigating family dynamics, relationship challenges, and internalized stigma that LGBTQ+ individuals face. I provide an affirming space where you can process your experiences, celebrate your identity, and build the confidence to live fully as yourself.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
You shouldn't have to spend your therapy sessions managing your therapist's learning curve about your identity. I built Courageous You specifically for LGBTQIA+ adults who want care that already understands their lives: the complexity of coming out (at any age, any number of times), identity-based trauma, minority stress, navigating family and community, gender exploration, and everything in between. I offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy for queer clients carrying depression, trauma, or the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from decades of not fully belonging. And I offer Somatic EMDR therapy and affirming individual or relationship therapy when KAP isn't the right fit. You deserve a therapist who gets it. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in providing affirming and inclusive care for LGBTQ+ individuals, including autistic and other neurodivergent clients. My approach emphasizes adapting therapeutic strategies to meet the unique needs of each individual while fostering a supportive and validating environment. I have experience advocating for and facilitating access to gender-affirming care, including providing letters of support for gender-affirming medical treatments.
In my work with LGBTQ+ youth, I prioritize family collaboration and use evidence-based practices, including the Family Acceptance Project’s family model, to strengthen relationships and promote mental health and well-being. I also provide guidance around gender identity exploration, helping clients navigate transitions and develop self-acceptance. My goal is to empower individuals and families by offering compassionate, identity-affirming care grounded in respect, understanding, and advocacy.

Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I provide affirming, trauma-informed therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals and relationships. I understand that distress often arises not from identity itself, but from navigating stigma, discrimination, family rejection, and systems that were not built with queer and trans people in mind. Therapy is a space where your identity is not questioned, explained, or treated as a phase—it is respected and affirmed.
In our work together, we may explore identity development, relationships, boundaries, trauma, and the impact of chronic stress on your nervous system and sense of safety. I approach care with cultural humility, consent, and an awareness of power, offering support that centers resilience, self-trust, and authenticity. Therapy with me is about creating space to breathe, to heal, and to live more fully as yourself.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Discovering and living your authentic self in the areas of gender and sexuality should be something to celebrate — but in a world that still too often meets queerness with fear or shame, that journey can be complicated, painful, and isolating. I offer affirming, gender-inclusive therapy that holds space for all of who you are, without pathologizing or minimizing your experience. Whether you're navigating coming out, internalized shame, identity questions, discrimination trauma, or the unique stress of living in a heteronormative world, you belong here — fully and without editing yourself.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I help people who identify all over the gender, sexuality, and relationship spectrum. Sometimes their relationships or identity challenges are the focus of their sessions because they need support for unique situations, and sometimes it's just one aspect of a different question, such as, "Do I really want to move to that conservative city for my dream job?"
For me, LGBTQ+ includes 2S, A, poly and more. I also have a graduate certificate in Sexuality and Religion, so I understand how some religious institutions have harmed queer people. And I see and know how queer people have sacred experiences within and outside of mainstream religion, with a wide variety of spiritualities.
I'm queer (gender fluid and pansexual). I've known this since I was 13 years old, before there was so much information via the internet. I've been though many transitions of how I express myself and relate with others. You are welcome to express your truest yourself, your realest questions, and your deepest needs.
