Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Many LGBTQ+ individuals carry the cumulative impact of rejection, invisibility, or discrimination. Therapy focuses on understanding how these experiences affect the nervous system, attachment patterns, and internal self-talk.
Using IFS, we gently unburden parts that have learned to protect through withdrawal, perfectionism, or hyper-independence. Our work fosters self-compassion, emotional regulation, and secure connection in present relationships.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Therapy for LGBTQIA2S+ individuals seeking a space where identity does not need to be explained, defended, minimized, or translated. My work supports people navigating gender, sexuality, relationships, family dynamics, community, spirituality, belonging, life transitions, and the ongoing process of living more fully in alignment with who they are.
This work is grounded in intersectionality, liberation, and the understanding that distress often emerges not from identity itself, but from the cumulative impact of navigating environments, systems, relationships, and cultural narratives that have not always made room for difference. Particular attention is given to the experiences of queer, trans, nonbinary, neurodivergent, disabled, chronically ill, highly sensitive, BIPOC, multicultural, and otherwise multiply marginalized individuals whose identities and experiences often exist across multiple worlds at once.
Exploration may include the impacts of masking, self-silencing, code-switching, hypervigilance, rejection, invisibility, family expectations, religious experiences, cultural belonging, internalized shame, identity-based trauma, and the exhaustion that can come from continually adapting in order to be accepted, understood, or safe. It may also include making space for joy, pleasure, desire, authenticity, connection, creativity, chosen family, and the parts of yourself that have had fewer opportunities to be fully expressed.
My approach integrates EMDR, somatic therapy, mindfulness, parts work, expressive arts, neuropsychotherapy, attachment-focused therapy, and liberation-oriented healing. Rather than focusing on who you should become, the work centers listening more deeply to who you already are. Support is offered in cultivating self-trust, nervous system safety, embodied authenticity, meaningful connection, and a life that feels more aligned with your values, relationships, needs, and ways of moving through the world.
