LGBTQ+ Issues
Suzanna Freerksen
Psychiatrist, MD
I've always tried hard to make my office a safe space for LGBTQIA+ folx, and to provide gender-affirming care to best of my ability. I learned much at my externship at the Center of Sexual Health in Minneapolis in residency. I'm very femme, but that doesn't mean I don't honor other people's expression of gender and sexuality. Not much can shock or disgust me. Your identity is safe with me, and will be cherished and honored.

MN Couples & Family Therapy
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Everyone has the right to be able to be who they are, to love whom they love, and to be understood. Most of the work I do in the LGBTQ space is in couples therapy. I am able to approach the unique nuances and challenges that LGBTQ couples may face, allowing me to deliver the best therapy results for each & every client. I have many family members who identify within the LGBTQ community.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
I believe that identity in all its manifestations is on a spectrum, not a binary, and that one of the goals for creating a meaningful life is finding and developing healthy love for self and others. Who we love, how we love, and how we define ourselves in terms of gender and sexuality and how we communicate that to ourselves and others can be a beautiful, freeing process. I wish to help my clients embrace, celebrate, and express their identity.

Lisa J. Taylor
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are struggling to find joy or peace in any of your important relationships, please know that help and support are available! As a relationship therapist, I am committed to creating an affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals, couples, and families, as well as for those in non-traditional relationships. I also welcome the opportunity to work with clients who are experiencing conflict about adapting to a child or other family member's change in expressed identity, such as when a family member shares that they are gay or trans. Differences in worldview can make it difficult to adjust to learning this new information, but I am here to help you understand and find new ways to connect to your loved one.
