Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
LGBTQ+ individuals may face anxiety, depression, rejection, discrimination, family conflict, identity concerns, or pressure to hide important parts of themselves. Your identity is not a problem to be fixed; therapy should be a place where you feel respected, affirmed, and understood.
I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space to explore identity, relationships, coming out, cultural or spiritual concerns, trauma, and self-acceptance. Together, we work to reduce shame, strengthen boundaries, build resilience, and support a life guided by authenticity, dignity, meaningful connection, and pride in who you are.

Anthony Canapi - Your Queer Relationship Therapist
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Being LGBTQPIA2S+ in a world that often misunderstands or marginalizes your identity can shape how you move through relationships, family systems, work, dating, and self-worth. You might be navigating coming out, cultural expectations, faith conflicts, chosen family, gender exploration, or simply the exhaustion of explaining yourself.
My work is grounded in LGBTQ+ affirmative psychology and lived experience. Therapy with me is not about defending your identity- it’s about deepening into it. Together, we’ll create space to unpack internalized messages, strengthen self-trust, explore authenticity, and build relationships that honor who you truly are. You deserve spaces where you are celebrated, not tolerated.
