Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
With special attunement to providing support to LGBTQ+ individuals, I helppeople navigate challenges related to identity, coming out/letting in, relationships, and societal pressures. I support improving communication skills between family members with various belief systems fostering healthy relationships and developing coping strategies to enhance overall well-being. I offer a safe space where people can explore their feelings, choices, build self-acceptance, and address any concerns related to gender and sexual orientation. My approach includes using evidence-based therapies, such as CBT, to help manage issues like anxiety, depression, or discrimination that may arise. I specialize specifically with LGBTQ+ people from conservative backgrounds like conservative Muslims, Mormons, Christians, and many people from the Global South/Majority. Navigating these cultural dynamics adds a complexity that those from more progressive families and cultures may not understand.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
For many queer and trans people, the project of selfhood involves a double labor: becoming who you are while contending with a world that has opinions about whether that person should exist. The effects are not always dramatic. Sometimes they are quiet — a lifelong habit of self-editing, a flinch so practiced it no longer registers as a flinch. Therapy is a place where the full weight of that experience can be acknowledged, and where the self that survived it can begin to discover what it wants when it is no longer organizing itself around someone else's discomfort.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
I believe that identity in all its manifestations is on a spectrum, not a binary, and that one of the goals for creating a meaningful life is finding and developing healthy love for self and others. Who we love, how we love, and how we define ourselves in terms of gender and sexuality and how we communicate that to ourselves and others can be a beautiful, freeing process. I wish to help my clients embrace, celebrate, and express their identity.
