Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., AMFT
As a gay man living in Los Angeles for over twenty years, I have experienced the challenges of cultivating and maintaining a genuine sense of self while being bombarded with body image issues, homophobia, gay shame, and the hyper-sexualized competitive nature of the gay community. As gay men, our sexual currency can sometimes become the focus of how we see and place value on ourselves. This can lead to addiction, self-loathing cycles, self-harm, anxiety, and depression. I am passionate about helping you dismantle what society, and the gay community has led you to believe about yourself. Together, we will get to the root of what makes you feel centered, authentic, and grounded. I am highly invested in creating a judgment-free space for you to feel safe to talk about anything you feel is relevant to your growth.

Jennie Steinberg - feminist, queer-affirming therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, PMH-C
I am a queer-affirming therapist, and I’ve been working for 15 years with clients who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, transgender, nonbinary, poly, and kinky. I believe that there is magic across the entire gender, sexual, and relationship minority spectrum. My guiding principle is that if you aren’t harming anyone and you feel good on the inside, you’re probably doing okay. I support queer clients in navigating identity questions, coming out, navigating oppression, being misgendered, being outed, struggling with visibility in a heteropresumptive culture, intersectionality, reconciling privilege, the stress of having to play educator, navigating systems while queer, and navigating fraught family relationships. I also support queer clients in managing depression, anxiety, trauma, work stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, body image, parenting stressors, boundary-setting, self-esteem, self-compassion, managing anger – in other words, the same things I work on with my cishet clients, but in an affirming and supportive environment. For more information I can support you in all your queer glory, reach out. I look forward to hearing from you!
