Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
My near 20 years of experience has helped me develop an approach to therapy that involves providing a supportive and affirming environment where you can explore their identity and experiences while feeling accepted and affirmed. It is important to acknowledging and validating the unique challenges faced by LGBT+ individuals, such as discrimination, internalized homophobia, and coming out. Therapy can help address issues you may have related to self-acceptance, relationship dynamics, and coping with societal pressures. By fostering a safe space, my hope is to empower you to develop resilience, enhance self-esteem, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Linda Schartman, MA LPC
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
People who aren't in our community often don't understand the effect of microagressions on mental health. Additionally, there are economic and cultural factors at play for LGBTQIA2s+ folks. I validate all adult consensual sexual or relationship practices (polyamory and ethical non-monogamy included) and help you navigate the challenging waters of dealing with external and internalized homophobia and maintaining healthy relationships with self and others.
