The Caruso Wellness Center PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, MART, MA, ALMFT
I provide LGBTQ+ affirming counseling in a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free environment where you can be your authentic self. As an openly gay man, I understand firsthand that navigating questions of identity, relationships, family dynamics, faith, discrimination, and belonging can be both deeply personal and, at times, emotionally exhausting. My role is not to tell you who you should be, but to walk alongside you with respect, empathy, and clinical expertise. Whether you are exploring your identity, coping with minority stress, healing from rejection or religious trauma, strengthening your relationships, or simply seeking a therapist who understands LGBTQ+ experiences, I offer gender-affirming and sexuality-affirming care grounded in Adlerian principles of encouragement, belonging, and personal growth. Every client is welcomed with dignity, respect, and the belief that healing flourishes in an atmosphere of acceptance and genuine human connection.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals navigating LGBT issues by providing an affirming and supportive space to explore identity, relationships, and life experiences. LGBT concerns can include coming out, navigating family or social dynamics, internalized stigma, the impact of religion or spirituality, and experiences of discrimination or minority stress. In therapy, we focus on strengthening self-acceptance, processing these experiences, and building resilience in a way that feels validating and empowering. My approach is collaborative and centered on helping you feel more confident in your identity while creating a life that aligns with your values.

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.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
To be gay or lesbian is inborn and you should be proud of yourself. "I am here to help you build a bold & real you!"
"Out of the Closets and into the Streets"
"We are here & We are Queer."
I will help you transform yourself into a King or Queen or both.
"Gay by birth, fabulous by choice"
"My life, my rules"
"Let me help you build a real you with a touch of care"
LGBTQ+ identities are not disorders and do not require a "cure" or treatment, but hypnotherapy can support mental health, self-acceptance, and stress management. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and confidence building, especially regarding coming out or navigating discrimination.

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.
