Together, we’ll co-create a space where you feel seen, heard, and welcome to step into the fullest version of yourself. As a queer woman myself, I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals.

Ciera Coyan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a queer/lesbian woman, it's been important to me from the start that my work focuses on LGBTQ+ clients. I have specialized training in queer and trans psychology. I have worked primarily with LBGTQ+ clients for the entirety of my career. Though it's not important for us all, for many of us a therapist who understands the specifics of queer community and culture is a huge bonus. I look for that in my own therapists, so I love providing that for clients as well!

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Some LGBTQ+ clients come to therapy with concerns directly connected to their identities and experiences, while others want to address broader areas of their lives with a therapist to whom they don't need to explain their identity.
With LGBTQ+ clients, it can often be important to recognize the effects of stigma, discrimination, rejection, and social or political uncertainty while also recognizing sources of strength, including resilience, authenticity, pride, chosen family, friendship, and community.

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.

Ryan Shannon
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA, MA, MS
Being gay, lesbian, or bisexual can bring unique questions and pressures around identity, relationships, family, belonging, and feeling safe enough to be fully yourself. You may be exploring your sexuality, considering coming out, navigating dating or intimacy, coping with rejection, or trying to understand how past experiences have shaped the way you connect with others.
I especially welcome gay men, lesbian women, and bisexual people who want a supportive, affirming space to speak openly without judgment or assumptions. We can explore concerns related to self-acceptance, loneliness, attachment, relationship patterns, shame, family dynamics, and the challenge of finding meaningful connection.
My goal is to help you feel more secure in who you are, more confident expressing your needs, and better able to build relationships in which you feel respected, understood, and free to be yourself.

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.
