Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
You deserve a therapist who gets it. Not one who needs you to educate them, not one who treats your identity as the problem to be solved, not one who's "fine with it" but clearly uncomfortable. Our clinicians provide LGBTQ+ affirming care that goes deeper than surface-level acceptance. We understand the specific stressors you navigate: family rejection or tension, coming out at different life stages, discrimination, internalized messages you're still untangling, relationships that don't fit the scripts you were handed. You don't have to translate your experience here. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
I am a gender-affirming and queer-affirming therapist, and promote openness and acceptance in my practice. I greatly enjoy working with queer and gender-expansive clients, and strive to create a space where individuals can feel safe, seen, and celebrated in their identities. I offer trans-affirmative care, and have worked with several clients at various stages through their gender identity journey. I also have experience with letter-writing for gender affirming services in alignment with WPATH standards, and approach this process collaboratively and respectfully.

Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
At Healing Reflections Therapy, myself, my partner and our other therapists all are informed, open, affirming and enthusiastically support LGBTQ+ identities. What that means for clients is that you will not be expected to educate us on what your identity means in part because we prioritize , we are all allies or Queer ourselves, and we understand the common and current challenges faced by Queer and Trans people. I frequently say that what I appreciate most about LGBTQ+ folx is their dedication to trying to keep family ties intact and the importance they often simultaneously place on community and self-expression and identity. This is a safe space for those exploring or questioning their gender or sexual orientation. I do a great deal of that work. Our building has gender-free bathrooms and the other office spaces are rented by good caring people, so we encourage everyone to dress and present however you do or want to try out.

Gracie Orellano
Marriage and Family Therapist, ALMFT
As a queer individual and ally, I often use my experiences within today's culture to provide insight and create connection with my clients. This identity also informs me of how to help navigate challenges faced due to ongoing societal narratives. Things can get especially tough in this community when there aren't people who understand your perspective. I want to provide a space where my LGBT+ clients feel comfortable to be themselves and express their struggles.
