Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
Navigating coming out, identity exploration, minority stress, family rejection, or the unique challenges that can arise in queer, trans, or non-heteronormative relationships takes courage and support. I provide an affirming, kink- and trans-friendly space to process these experiences, reduce the weight of shame or external pressure, and build authentic connections—with yourself and with partners. Whether you’re working on individual identity, relationship dynamics, or creating the kind of intimacy that truly fits who you are, therapy here honors all parts of you.

Members of the LGBTQ+ community often face unique challenges, from navigating personal identity and acceptance to confronting societal prejudice and discrimination. These experiences can lead to feelings of isolation, anxiety, and stress, impacting mental health and well-being. My LGBTQ+ affirming therapy creates a safe and supportive space to explore these issues, offering understanding, validation, and strategies for coping and thriving, embracing your true self with pride and confidence.

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.
