Dr. Kimberly E. Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, APIT
I have worked with LGBTQ clients for over a decade and consider myself an Ally. I am in tune to the unique challenges, bias and issues faced by this population. All to frequently LGBTQ clients all have been subject to trauma, disconnection from family, work or social discrimination based on their gender and sexual identity. Whether dealing with individual, partner or family issues I am an experienced resource.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with individuals and couples across the LGBTQ+ spectrum, supporting a wide range of experiences related to identity, relationships, and family building. This can include exploring questions of identity and self-understanding, navigating coming out, managing family dynamics, and building affirming, meaningful relationships.
I have particular experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples pursuing non-traditional paths to parenthood, including adoption, surrogacy, and donor conception. I understand both the unique stressors and the profound strengths that can come with these journeys.
My approach is affirming, nuanced, and grounded in deep respect for each person’s lived experience. I aim to create a space where clients feel fully seen and understood, while also helping them navigate challenges with clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of self.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
LGBTQ+ issues are ones which are close to my heart as I am a gay-identified man. LGBTQ+ individuals share many unique experiences due to their sexual orientation and gender identity. The symptoms that result from those experience are often more accurately understood by a psychologist who has shared in those experiences. This understanding facilitates greater affirmation and validation of your needs, along with designing a more effective approach to achieve your desired symptom relief. Helping people in our LGBTQ+ community is one of the primary reasons I decided to become a psychologist.

Hannah Muetzelfeld
Psychologist, PhD
I am a gender-affirming and queer-affirming therapist, and promote openness and acceptance in my practice. I greatly enjoy working with queer and gender-expansive clients, and strive to create a space where individuals can feel safe, seen, and celebrated in their identities. I offer trans-affirmative care, and have worked with several clients at various stages through their gender identity journey. I also have experience with letter-writing for gender affirming services in alignment with WPATH standards, and approach this process collaboratively and respectfully.
