Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
As a fellow queer person, I offer a space where identity can be explored slowly and honestly in the therapy room. Our work will pay attention to the unconscious ways your history, culture, and lived experiences shape how you understand yourself in the world. Therapy becomes a place to make meaning of what has been carried quietly, soften internal conflict, and move toward a way of living that feels more authentic.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Sexual orientations and identities are an integral part of the lens through which we experience the world around us. As human beings are social creatures, emotional, romantic, and/or sexual attractions to others are a common experience for us all. However, in an oftentimes heteronormative society, understanding and exploring what it means to be attracted to someone of the same sex, gender, or identity vector can be a confusing process. For some, trying to navigate the differences between romantic and sexual attractions might be a novel process as we are often taught to place emphasis largely on sexual compatibility. Even further, some might find that they are interested in folks from several sexual or gender identities in different ways. Whichever scenario is applicable to you, the clinicians at PCT firmly believe that having a safe space for this exploration is essential to figuring out what feels right for you and the relationships you wish to curate.
Additionally, navigating the “coming out” process can be its own challenge; much like other identity vectors, sexual orientation is greatly influenced by race, cultural background, ethnic group, religion, political identity, and ability status. The “coming out” process is not a linear process and we want to support you wherever you might be on your sexual identity journey. To that end, we at PCT highly respect each identity represented on the LBGTQIA+ spectrum. Each letter holds incredible weight by representing its own unique community of people with their own unique set of challenges. We want you to rest assured that, regardless of which LGBTQIA+ identity you hold, our clinicians are ready to provide you with affirming care as fierce advocates and allies of all sexual and gender identities.
Lastly, we know that for those coming in for couples therapy, there are a myriad of similarities and differences between those of LGBTQIA+ couples and straight couples. In this type of work, we remain open to exploring whichever issues seem most pressing to the couple. Depending on your relationship and personal history, you might find that there are several different areas you may wish to explore with your partner as you seek to bolster your relationship. Some examples of these are, and are not limited to, the following: navigating sexual identity changes mid-relationship, exploring LGBTQIA+ parenthood, coming out difficulties, sexual intimacy issues, examining relational trauma, and exploring polyamory. Regardless of your presenting concern, we look forward to working with you and joining you on your journey to continued self-discovery.

Peter Gould
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist, I offer compassionate and effective treatment for members of the LGBTQ+ community. My approach, guided by evidence-based therapies, is tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. Coming out is a deeply personal and transformative experience that can significantly impact mental health, often leading to emotions such as anxiety and depression. Addressing these mental health considerations is crucial for ensuring a supportive and healthy journey.
Individuals may struggle with feelings of isolation, difficulty revealing their true selves to family members, and defending their identity. My expertise extends beyond the coming-out process to include support for those who feel unsupported in their personal lives. I focus on helping clients feel more comfortable living authentically, navigate experiences of rejection, and gain a deeper understanding of their sexuality.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
It is my sincere belief that everyone is entitled to a safe, supportive space. Many of my clients are transgender, gender non-conforming and nonbinary, and LGBQ+ identified adult individuals.

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.

Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for individuals of all identities and orientations. I understand how personal and sometimes complicated the journey of self-discovery can be—especially when it comes to navigating gender identity, sexual orientation, and the coming out process.
Many LGBTQ+ individuals grow up in environments where their identities may not have been fully accepted, understood, or affirmed. This can lead to feelings of shame, anxiety, isolation, or internal conflict. It can also make typical developmental milestones—like forming relationships, building self-esteem, or setting boundaries—feel even more challenging.
In our work together, I honor the unique experiences that shape you. Whether you’re exploring your identity, facing challenges related to coming out, navigating family dynamics, or simply wanting to feel more at home in yourself, therapy can offer a meaningful path forward.
We’ll move at your pace, uncover the patterns that may be holding you back, and build tools for resilience, connection, and self-acceptance. You deserve to live a life where you feel seen, understood, and supported just as you are.

Dr. Israel Martinez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST, PhD
Sexual orientation and gender roles are core aspects of who we are, shaping how we experience ourselves and relate to others. Exploring and accepting these parts of your identity can be complex, influenced by personal experiences, societal expectations, and internalized stigma. My therapy offers a safe, affirming space to explore your identity, confront challenges, and work toward living authentically.
We focus on self-acceptance, helping you understand and articulate your sexual orientation and gender identity while addressing societal pressures that may cause shame or confusion. Therapy also supports your relationships, guiding you in setting boundaries, expressing yourself, and fostering connections that honor your identity.
Through this work, clients often experience increased confidence, reduced shame, and a stronger sense of self, leading to greater fulfillment and authentic living. My approach is empathetic, affirming, and client-centered, drawing on extensive experience with LGBTQ+ issues to help you embrace your strengths and navigate your journey with confidence.
