Rachel Honaker, Depth Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I am passionate about working in the LGBTQ+ community. Partially because of experience and a desire to give back in honor of the support I have received. The stressors of being queer are many and varying, but they all deserve to be addressed in a safe place. Whatever your story so far, we can co-create a space for you to process your experience and feelings and work towards an integrated sense of well-being in yourself, your relationships, and your identity.

Eric Tivers (ADHD reWired)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
As a queer, bisexual, and sex-positive therapist, I know how powerful it can be to have a space where you don’t have to explain or edit who you are. My practice is fully LGBTQ+ affirming and welcoming of all identities and relationship structures, including polyamorous and kink communities. As a bisexual man, I understand the unique challenges of biphobia and bi-erasure — both within and outside of the LGBTQ+ community — and how isolating that can feel.
I also understand how shame, masking, and rejection can shape our sense of self — and how healing it can be to feel seen, accepted, and supported just as you are. In therapy, we’ll explore identity, relationships, and self-expression in ways that align with your values and your nervous system. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed, honoring the intersections of queerness, neurodivergence, and authenticity. Whether you’re processing coming out, navigating gender or relationship transitions, or simply wanting to live more fully as yourself, this is a space where all of you is welcome.

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.

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.

As an ally to LGBTQ+ people, I am committed to providing you with high quality service that suits your needs. Wherever on the rainbow you are, know that you are accepted and respected. I have some experience in this area, but hesitate to call myself an expert because, as you know, unless you are living and being in the world as an LGBTQ+ - you don't *really* know. However, I get regular training as an ally and am truly open to hearing your experience plus I bring 20+years of therapeutic knowledge of working with LGBTQ+ to the table.

Susan Killelea
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Sex Therapist
Exploration of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression are journeys that often continues after "coming out" or personally acknowledging your orientation and identity. You may want help in defining new feelings, support in affirming your gender, or guidance in informing others of changes. Therapy may help you learn more about your sexual and romantic attractions, relationship wants and needs.

Emem Itiat
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
I work from a liberation Psychology standpoint and humanist framework observing individuals through the lens of their unique and shared intersections. When it comes to fighting against hate, discrimination, and violence against queer bodies I believe in working to enhance radical acceptance through promoting self-contentment, awareness building by identifying the underlying and overlying systems of oppression and how they manifest internally, and working towards dismantling those systems both externally and internally.

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.
