Janet LeMoal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CASAC (NYS)
Our country is rolling back equal rights for the Queer community, and dealing with the emotions that come with that can be scary and overwhelming. In therapy with me, we can talk through the challenges of living in a world that often feels unsafe or unaccepting. You don’t have to face it alone. Together, we’ll create a space where you can explore your identity, feel seen and validated, and build the resilience you need to navigate external pressures. My goal is to help you feel empowered, affirmed, and grounded—no matter what’s happening around you.

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.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Being part of the LGBTQIA+ community can bring incredible strength and resilience—but it can also come with unique challenges. Even as acceptance grows, discrimination, judgment, and pressure to conform still impact daily life and mental health.
Whether you’re coming out, exploring your gender or sexual identity, navigating family dynamics, considering non-monogamy, raising children, or aging in a world that doesn’t always understand—you're not alone. These experiences can bring up anxiety, depression, shame, or isolation, and you don’t have to carry that alone.
Therapy offers a space to talk openly about identity, sex, relationships, and health—including informed sexual decision-making and options like PrEP—without fear of judgment.
You deserve affirming care that respects who you are and supports where you want to go. Together, we can help you feel more grounded, empowered, and aligned with your values.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Discovering and living your authentic self in the areas of gender and sexuality should be something to celebrate — but in a world that still too often meets queerness with fear or shame, that journey can be complicated, painful, and isolating. I offer affirming, gender-inclusive therapy that holds space for all of who you are, without pathologizing or minimizing your experience. Whether you're navigating coming out, internalized shame, identity questions, discrimination trauma, or the unique stress of living in a heteronormative world, you belong here — fully and without editing yourself.
