Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
Sexual orientations and identities are an integral part of the lens through which we experience the world around us. As human beings are social creatures, emotional, romantic, and/or sexual attractions to others are a common experience for us all. However, in an oftentimes heteronormative society, understanding and exploring what it means to be attracted to someone of the same sex, gender, or identity vector can be a confusing process. For some, trying to navigate the differences between romantic and sexual attractions might be a novel process as we are often taught to place emphasis largely on sexual compatibility. Even further, some might find that they are interested in folks from several sexual or gender identities in different ways. Whichever scenario is applicable to you, the clinicians at PCT firmly believe that having a safe space for this exploration is essential to figuring out what feels right for you and the relationships you wish to curate.
Additionally, navigating the “coming out” process can be its own challenge; much like other identity vectors, sexual orientation is greatly influenced by race, cultural background, ethnic group, religion, political identity, and ability status. The “coming out” process is not a linear process and we want to support you wherever you might be on your sexual identity journey. To that end, we at PCT highly respect each identity represented on the LBGTQIA+ spectrum. Each letter holds incredible weight by representing its own unique community of people with their own unique set of challenges. We want you to rest assured that, regardless of which LGBTQIA+ identity you hold, our clinicians are ready to provide you with affirming care as fierce advocates and allies of all sexual and gender identities.
Lastly, we know that for those coming in for couples therapy, there are a myriad of similarities and differences between those of LGBTQIA+ couples and straight couples. In this type of work, we remain open to exploring whichever issues seem most pressing to the couple. Depending on your relationship and personal history, you might find that there are several different areas you may wish to explore with your partner as you seek to bolster your relationship. Some examples of these are, and are not limited to, the following: navigating sexual identity changes mid-relationship, exploring LGBTQIA+ parenthood, coming out difficulties, sexual intimacy issues, examining relational trauma, and exploring polyamory. Regardless of your presenting concern, we look forward to working with you and joining you on your journey to continued self-discovery.

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.

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.

Salutaris Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
LGBTQ+ issues can involve much more than labels—they often touch identity, family, relationships, culture, faith, safety, belonging, and the pressure of deciding when and how to be fully yourself. In therapy, I provide an affirming space for clients exploring coming out, self-acceptance, relationship concerns, cultural identity, shame, rejection, or the stress of balancing different parts of themselves in different worlds. My style is warm, practical, sometimes humorous, and grounded in real life. Together, we work toward clarity, confidence, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of living in a way that feels honest and aligned with who you are.

Dr. Amanda Malak
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
With special attunement to providing support to LGBTQ+ individuals, I helppeople navigate challenges related to identity, coming out/letting in, relationships, and societal pressures. I support improving communication skills between family members with various belief systems fostering healthy relationships and developing coping strategies to enhance overall well-being. I offer a safe space where people can explore their feelings, choices, build self-acceptance, and address any concerns related to gender and sexual orientation. My approach includes using evidence-based therapies, such as CBT, to help manage issues like anxiety, depression, or discrimination that may arise. I specialize specifically with LGBTQ+ people from conservative backgrounds like conservative Muslims, Mormons, Christians, and many people from the Global South/Majority. Navigating these cultural dynamics adds a complexity that those from more progressive families and cultures may not understand.

Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
I love working with women who identify as queer/lesbian/bi or are questioning their sexuality later in life. Perhaps this means you have been in a heteronormative relationship throughout your life, but are coming to terms with your authentic identity. This process can be distressing, especially as you navigate dating and talking-to friends/family about your orientation. Therapy can be helpful in providing a space to process emotions and receive support during this journey.

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.

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.
