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.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.

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.

Elana Blumenthal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a therapist who sees a wide variety of clients with different backgrounds, religions, and cultures, sexual orientation and gender identity aligns with my expansive view of the world. I am interested in people with all different backgrounds and the LGBTQ+ community is no different for me in this respect. I hope to help this client understand themselves, have self-compassion and move forward in their lives and support them on this path.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When bias and discrimination are part of a person's problems, I show them how not to anger themselves and then how to address the prejudice and discrimination constructively. In cases where people are shameful about their sexuality, I teach them how to unconditionally accept themselves and never to shame themselves for who they are and what they like both sexually and non-sexually.

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.

Ricardo Despradel
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC,LPC
As a gay cis-male Latino therapist, my commitment to LGBTQIA+-affirming care is both personal and clinical. I understand that identity including sexual orientation, gender identity, race, and culture doesn't exist in a vacuum separate from mental health. The effects of minority stress, discrimination, family rejection, and systemic barriers are real, and they shape the way people experience anxiety, OCD, and disordered eating in ways that a culturally unaware therapist can miss. I strive to create a space where LGBTQIA+ individuals and people from historically marginalized communities can show up fully, without having to educate their therapist or shrink themselves to be understood. My goal is affirming care that is also genuinely effective where identity is respected and evidence-based treatment still leads the way.
