LGBTQ+ Issues
Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
For many queer and trans people, the project of selfhood involves a double labor: becoming who you are while contending with a world that has opinions about whether that person should exist. The effects are not always dramatic. Sometimes they are quiet — a lifelong habit of self-editing, a flinch so practiced it no longer registers as a flinch. Therapy is a place where the full weight of that experience can be acknowledged, and where the self that survived it can begin to discover what it wants when it is no longer organizing itself around someone else's discomfort.

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.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Peter Gould
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist, I offer compassionate and effective treatment for members of the LGBTQ+ community. My approach, guided by evidence-based therapies, is tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. Coming out is a deeply personal and transformative experience that can significantly impact mental health, often leading to emotions such as anxiety and depression. Addressing these mental health considerations is crucial for ensuring a supportive and healthy journey.
Individuals may struggle with feelings of isolation, difficulty revealing their true selves to family members, and defending their identity. My expertise extends beyond the coming-out process to include support for those who feel unsupported in their personal lives. I focus on helping clients feel more comfortable living authentically, navigate experiences of rejection, and gain a deeper understanding of their sexuality.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
I provide affirming, inclusive therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals in a space where your identity is respected, valued, and celebrated. Navigating life as an LGBTQ+ person can bring unique joys and strengths, as well as challenges such as stigma, hurtful family dynamics, discrimination, identity exploration, or coming out. My role is to offer a safe, supportive environment where you can speak openly without fear of judgment or misunderstanding. Together, we explore the concerns most important to you—whether that’s anxiety, depression, relationship issues, identity exploration, minority stress, or building self-acceptance. I integrate research-based approaches tailored to your individual needs, while honoring the cultural and personal context of your experience. Therapy with me is collaborative, warm, and empowering. You deserve care that affirms who you are and supports you in building a life and relationships that feel authentic, connected, and fulfilling.

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.
