Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
This practice is explicitly LGBTQ+ affirming. I work with queer, trans, and questioning clients around identity development, coming out, family/religious rejection, SOGICE/conversion therapy aftereffects, and the day-to-day toll of minority stress. We’ll honor your gender/sexuality as healthy expressions of who you are and help you heal from any messages that said otherwise. You get to bring all of you into the room.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
As a queer, nonbinary individual, I have a soft spot for the LGBTQ++ community and about half my clients identify as sexual or gender diverse. As a university professor, I enjoy working within a professional setting to show students that you can be accepted, celebrated, successful, etc. as a queer and gender nonconforming professional.
