Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
You deserve a space where you are fully seen, not explained or tolerated. I work with LGBTQIA+ clients from a shame-free, sex-positive perspective, bringing years of experience and genuine investment in the specific ways that systemic harm, family rejection, religious trauma, and identity-based shame show up in our lives and bodies. I am completing certification in sexuality therapy and work from a trauma-informed approach that gets beneath the surface — because you came here to actually heal, not just be accepted. You already deserve acceptance. Let's get to the rest.

Corina Bair
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As part of the LGBTQIA+ community myself, I am passionate about providing a safe, open-minded, and welcoming space for people of all backgrounds and identities. I have years of experience working with teens, young and middle-aged adults as well as family members of those who identify as part of the LGBTQ+ community. I thrive on helping others discover who they are and feel more empowered to be that person in every day life. Assisting my clients with building insight and understanding into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is an essential part of my therapy practice, and I provide evidence-based practice tools that you can use outside of therapy as well. ~~~ Just to make it clear: BLM. Protect the dolls. FDT. Free Palestine & Sudan. F the patriarchy/capitalism. Sex + Body Positive. ~~~
