Insight Therapeutic and Wellness Solutions, PLLC

Stigma-free, affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ Individuals
Do you live outside of the heteronormative-cisgender box?
Have you been to other supposed “LGBTQ-friendly” counselors who had no idea what you were talking about?
Could you use a safe space to process your feelings and assess your goals?
Or maybe you’re seeking relationship counseling from someone who understands where you’re coming from.
If you can relate to any of the above, then you’ve come to the right place.
No judgments. No biases. Just a strong support system with open ears.
Stigma, in any form, is an impediment to the well-being of those who experience it. Given the stressors that LGBT groups must confront, such as homophobia, prejudice, coming out, and discrimination, finding a therapist who is openly LGBT-friendly or who specializes in LGBT issues is crucial to your personal growth.
As LGBTQIA+ affirming therapists, we are committed to helping clients of all genders, sexual identities and expressions feel not only safe, but truly respected.
If you or someone you know is seeking help from an LGBTQIA+ therapist, contact us today. we would be happy to speak with you about how we can help.

Paulina Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSWA, LCASA
For many LGBTQ+ folks, life includes navigating safety, belonging, and authenticity in environments that don’t always offer ease or affirmation. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t need to explain or defend who you are. I offer relational, affirming support; a place to be witnessed fully while exploring identity, relationships, and the stressors that come with living in a world that can be both tender and demanding.

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.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
LGBTQIA+ identities are often treated as something to analyze or explain—but for many people, the real challenge is navigating a world that doesn’t consistently feel safe, affirming, or understanding. Whether you’re exploring your identity, coming out, navigating relationships, or dealing with family, cultural, or religious dynamics, there’s often a lot to hold. Experiences of discrimination, invisibility, or having to constantly assess safety can take a real toll—especially when you’re expected to keep functioning as if it’s not happening.
At Nour Counseling, our care is explicitly affirming—not neutral, not “tolerant,” but actively supportive and celebratory of who you are. Most of our clinicians identify as LGBTQIA+ themselves, which means you’re not starting from a place of having to explain or justify your experience. We prioritize helping you build a sense of belonging—within yourself, in your relationships, and in the spaces you move through. We also address the impact of religious messaging or trauma that may have shaped how you see yourself, creating space to unpack and redefine those experiences on your own terms. Along the way, we name the broader systems and narratives that impact LGBTQIA+ individuals, so you’re not internalizing something that was never yours to carry. This is a space where you can show up as you are and focus on building a life that actually fits.

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.

Jess Clodfelter
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCMHC, LPC, NCC, CCTP-II
You don’t need therapy where you’re educating your therapist on the basics of your identity — you need one where you can actually get support. I work primarily with LGBTQ+ folx, especially trans and nonbinary clients, navigating identity exploration, dysphoria, relationships, and the stress of existing in systems that weren’t built with you in mind. This is a space where you don’t have to shrink yourself, explain yourself, or brace for weird reactions. We focus on helping you feel more grounded in who you are, build self-trust, and move through the world with a little more clarity and a lot less second-guessing.
I also provide gender-affirming surgery letters through a collaborative, non-gatekeeping process, so you can access the care you need without unnecessary barriers or hoops to jump through.
