Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I provide supportive and affirming therapy for individuals and couples impacted by HIV or AIDS. I am deeply aware of the fear, loss, and stigma that emerged during the AIDS crisis of the 1980s and 1990s, and how those experiences continue to shape the lives, relationships, and mental health of many people today. For some, this includes grief, trauma, survivor’s guilt, or long standing anxiety related to health, intimacy, or trust.
My work is grounded in respect, empathy, and an understanding of the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQ community. I offer a space where you can speak openly about your experiences without having to explain or defend them. This may include support around disclosure, dating and relationships, sexuality and intimacy, medical stress, or navigating changes in identity and community over time.
Whether you are newly diagnosed, have been living with HIV for many years, or are supporting a partner or loved one, therapy can be a place to process emotions, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with a sense of stability and meaning. My goal is to support you in living fully and authentically while honoring both your history and your resilience.
