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.

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.

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.

Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) issues therapy, also known as LGBT-affirmative therapy or LGBTQ+ counseling, provides LGBT community members with support and understanding tailored to their unique experiences and difficulties. LGBT-affirmative treatment seeks to create a secure and welcoming environment where clients can explore their identities, resolve concerns about their sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, and work toward greater self-acceptance and well-being.
Therapists who provide LGBT-affirmative therapy know the potential effects of heteronormativity, cisnormativity, and other forms of prejudice on their clients. They endeavor to foster an accepting, affirming, and nonjudgmental environment of diverse gender and sexual identities.
Not all therapists have specialized training or experience working with LGBT issues. If you are looking for LGBT-affirming therapy, it is recommended that you seek out therapists who advertise their expertise in this area or inquire about their experience with LGBT clients during the initial consultation.
Overall, LGBT-affirmative therapy aims to assist LGBT individuals in navigating their unique challenges, developing resilience, and fostering positive mental health and well-being in a secure and affirming therapeutic environment.

Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
As a queer, nonbinary woman myself, I greatly enjoy supporting other members of the LGBTQIA+ community in exploring their sexual orientation and gender identity, navigating the process of coming out, and building relationships with people who are accepting and affirming of them. I have experience co-facilitating a therapy group for trans individuals as well as supporting those who are pursuing gender affirming medical care. I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ folks who are working to build their families.

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.

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.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
My personal belief and my coaching ethos is that you are a whole, creative, resourceful person as you are, right now. That is a belief that is being challenged ad nauseam in the current climate. Assuming nothing, as a Holistic Life Coach, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to speak your truth, be who you are, and figure out what you want from life without anyone else's input, influence, or expectations. While this is true for everyone, it can be an even more powerful experience for those of us who feel silenced and rendered invisible in any aspect of our lives. I am NOT offering therapy, but coaching can absolutely complement and supplement your therapy work. Instead, I offer a toolbox of methods, approaches, and experiments that most therapists do not. Tools designed to help you embrace your success without apology; create ease in a world of hardship; center yourself and ground in your own wisdom; and come into agreement with yourself regardless of the dissonance of others.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
I was among the first psychologists to volunteer to counsel with people with AIDS beginning in 1986. In addition, my years of collaboration with people of all sexualities and gender identities have encouraged me to strongly view all sexualities as equally valid. However, I also understand that one's sexual and gender role plays a major role in the therapeutic process. I understand and have conducted research on the unique therapeutic needs of people with sexualities that are often marginalized.

Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC
We provide affirming, trauma-informed therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals navigating identity development, relationships, family dynamics, mental health concerns, and the impact of stigma or discrimination. We recognize that LGBTQ+ experiences are shaped not only by personal journeys, but also by social, cultural, and systemic factors that can affect safety, belonging, and well-being.
Our clinicians create a space where clients can show up fully and authentically—without needing to educate, defend, or minimize their experiences. We support adolescents and adults exploring coming out, self-acceptance, gender identity, intimacy, grief, faith-related conflict, and resilience in the face of marginalization.
LGBTQ+ counseling at Full Being Services is strengths-based, culturally responsive, and rooted in affirmation—supporting healing, empowerment, and wholeness across every stage of life.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a member of the LGBT community, and as someone who holds degrees both in psychology and LGBT Health and Policy, I couple an academic understanding of the unique disparities that come with these identities with a profound personal knowledge of them in my own life. Not all patients have had positive experiences with the medical community, so it is my hope that my education and bisexual identity will serve my patients in a way that makes them feel both heard and seen. I also recognize that our identities can be static, or they can be fluid, and that the coming out process isn’t something we do just once: we do it over and over again. I do not personally identify as cisgender, and so I approach the issues facing the transgender, nonbinary, genderqueer, and gender non-conforming communities with deep empathy and personal understanding. From fluidity to transitioning, hormone replacement therapy, to writing letters for surgery, I am committed to supporting my clients on their journeys. Not everyone experiences their own gender in the same way, so the discussion of gender as a construct and societal gender norms is at the forefront of our discussions in working through the big mess that is gender.
