Elena Duong
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Acceptance and kindness is incredibly important in LGBTQIA+ spaces. For many, these spaces are a refuge from judgment, where people can show up as their full selves without fear. Practicing acceptance means honoring diverse identities and experiences, even when they differ from our own. Kindness ensures this acceptance is felt, not just stated—through listening, respect, and support. Together, they create environments where individuals can heal, grow, and build genuine connection.

Kim Salinger
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MBA, MSN, PMHNP, FNP, AHN
LGBTQ+ individuals may face unique stressors that can affect mental health, including anxiety, depression, identity-related stress, and the impact of social or relational challenges. I provide affirming, integrative psychiatric care that respects each person’s identity and lived experience, while also considering medical, hormonal, and nervous system factors that may contribute to symptoms. Visits focus on support, understanding, and thoughtful medication management when appropriate, with the goal of helping patients feel more stable, confident, and supported in their well-being.
