Briana Marshall
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Navigating your identity, relationships and sense of belonging can feel complex, especially when you've had to hold parts of yourself back to feel safe and accepted. Many clients come in feeling unseen in their families, misunderstood in relationships, or exhausted from constantly reading the room. We offer a space where you don't have to explain or justify who you are, you get to just be. Together we'll explore your experience, strengthen your voice, and help you build relationships that feel affirming and secure.

Heather Marriatori
Psychologist, PhD
Although your sexual or romantic orientation or gender identity may not be a source of distress, many find that the social stigma of living as a minority is a source of stress or anxiety. When seeking therapy, finding a qualified mental health professional who has experience and familiarity with the challenges members of the LGBTQIA community often face can be critical to successful therapy outcomes. You don't need to go it alone. Drop me a line and let's discuss how can work together to give you the meaningful life you deserve.
