Alanna Preylo
Therapist, LMSW
Being Queer and/or Trans in the South can be isolating. Historically, Community has been how we keep ourselves safe as Queer and Trans folx. With how the world stands today, it is impossible to find or create that Community. It's hard to maintain Community in the face of Oppression. It's hard to experience and process unique feelings like dysphoria without a space to honor you or people to grieve with you.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Finding a therapist who truly gets it — not just tolerates it, not just claims to be "open-minded," but actually understands the nuance of your experience — makes all the difference. At Love Let Out, LGBTQ+ affirming care isn't a checkbox. It's woven into everything we do.
We work with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning individuals who are navigating the full range of what it means to live and love authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. That might look like coming out — to family, to a partner, to a workplace, or to yourself. It might look like processing the particular grief and anger that comes with rejection from people who were supposed to love you unconditionally. It might look like untangling internalized shame that got in long before you had the words to name it.
It might also have nothing to do with your identity at all. LGBTQ+ individuals deal with anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, and every other human experience — and deserve a therapist who understands their full context without making their identity the focus when it isn't.
We are also deeply affirming of gender diversity. Whether you are exploring your gender identity, navigating transition, or simply trying to find language for an experience that has always felt hard to name, you will be met here with knowledge, respect, and genuine care.
You should never have to educate your therapist, defend your identity, or wonder whether you are fully welcome. At Love Let Out, you already are.

As a queer, nonbinary individual, I have a soft spot for the LGBTQ++ community and about half my clients identify as sexual or gender diverse. As a university professor, I enjoy working within a professional setting to show students that you can be accepted, celebrated, successful, etc. as a queer and gender nonconforming professional.

Jonathan Hock -- Therapy for Men
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Questions around sexuality and gender for men are often lived in silence, shaped by expectation, shame, or confusion about what it means to be oneself. I offer a space to explore these experiences without pressure to define or resolve them too quickly. Together, we examine identity, desire, and the tension between authenticity and belonging, while working through internalized narratives that may no longer serve you. The aim is not to force clarity, but to help you arrive at a way of being that feels honest, embodied, and fully your own.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of the LGBT+ community, my approach to treatment is rooted in cultural humility, affirming the diverse identities and experiences of each individual. Through a safe and inclusive therapeutic space, I provide affirmative therapy that validates clients' identities, experiences, and challenges they may face due to societal stigma and discrimination. Utilizing culturally competent and evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and interpersonal therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to address concerns related to coming out, family acceptance, relationship issues, and identity exploration. Additionally, I advocate for social support networks and community resources to facilitate connection and resilience. My goal is to empower LGBT+ individuals to navigate life authentically, foster self-acceptance, and thrive in their identities.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I provide LGBTQ affirming therapy for individuals and couples who are navigating coming out, self acceptance, and the impact of sexual orientation or gender identity on family relationships. These experiences can bring a mix of relief, fear, grief, and hope, especially when family responses feel uncertain, unsupportive, or complex.
In therapy, I offer a space where you can explore your identity at your own pace without pressure or judgment. This may include working through internalized shame, fear of rejection, or questions about how and when to come out. I also help clients navigate conversations with family members, partners, or loved ones in ways that prioritize emotional safety and clarity.
For many people, this work involves redefining boundaries, strengthening self trust, and learning how to remain connected to others without compromising who they are. Whether you are seeking acceptance, repairing family relationships, or grieving the loss of hoped for support, my goal is to help you build a more grounded and authentic relationship with yourself and with the people in your life.
