Linda Schartman, MA LPC
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
People who aren't in our community often don't understand the effect of microagressions on mental health. Additionally, there are economic and cultural factors at play for LGBTQIA2s+ folks. I validate all adult consensual sexual or relationship practices (polyamory and ethical non-monogamy included) and help you navigate the challenging waters of dealing with external and internalized homophobia and maintaining healthy relationships with self and others.

Mountain Crest Counseling Services, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, and Register Associates
Navigating life as an LGBTQ+ person can bring unique experiences, from identity exploration and coming out to relationship challenges, family dynamics, discrimination, or the pressure of feeling misunderstood. Therapy can provide a safe, affirming, and judgment-free space to explore your identity, process difficult experiences, and feel more grounded in who you are.
Outpatient mental health therapy can support LGBTQ+ clients with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship concerns, family conflict, life transitions, stress, and the emotional impact of stigma or discrimination. Whether you are exploring your identity, navigating a major transition, or simply looking for a therapist who sees and respects you as a whole person, therapy can be a space to build confidence, resilience, authentic connection, and greater well-being.

Malama Counseling, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (or Questioning) therapy or affirmative therapy is a specialized, nonjudgmental approach that validates and supports individuals across the sexual orientation and gender identity spectra to promote self-acceptance and mental well-being. I help clients with gender affirming care who are seeking support to affirm their gender when it conflicts with the gender they were assigned at birth. This evidence-based, patient-centered care aims to treat gender dysphoria, improve mental health, and align outward physical traits with gender identity.

Michael Pollet
Registered Social Worker, CSWA
As a gay man, I bring lived experience to my work with people in the LGBTQIA+ community. We will examine the roots of shame, guilt, and other challenging emotions that may be tied to societal expectations, family dynamics, or past relationships. By uncovering these underlying patterns and the impact they have on your sense of self, we can work toward reducing the weight of these emotions.

Gary D. Alexander
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MFT, NCC
LGBTQIA+ individuals sometimes navigate unique challenges related to identity, relationships, family acceptance, and the impact of stigma or misunderstanding. In therapy we explore these experiences alongside the broader concerns many people bring to treatment, including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and patterns such as codependency. As this work unfolds, many people develop a stronger sense of authenticity, resilience, and emotional clarity in their lives.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I help people who identify all over the gender, sexuality, and relationship spectrum. Sometimes their relationships or identity challenges are the focus of their sessions because they need support for unique situations, and sometimes it's just one aspect of a different question, such as, "Do I really want to move to that conservative city for my dream job?"
For me, LGBTQ+ includes 2S, A, poly and more. I also have a graduate certificate in Sexuality and Religion, so I understand how some religious institutions have harmed queer people. And I see and know how queer people have sacred experiences within and outside of mainstream religion, with a wide variety of spiritualities.
I'm queer (gender fluid and pansexual). I've known this since I was 13 years old, before there was so much information via the internet. I've been though many transitions of how I express myself and relate with others. You are welcome to express your truest yourself, your realest questions, and your deepest needs.
