Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
My experience with the LGBTQ+ community stems from working over a long period with clients and in personal relationships as a straight ally. Discrimination, rejection, implicit and pervasive bias, legal challenges and the long-term impact of never "belonging" are all just some of the detrimental impacts of simply being. My work with LGBTQ+ clients focuses on meeting the client wherever they are and providing support, encouragement, psycho-education, and other interventions to promote both healing and growth.

I work with a variety of LGBTQ+ issues. I counsel same sex couples, provide therapy for those going through transition, and work with extended family members who may be struggling after someone they love comes out. I have written children's book for kids of same sex parents who are facing divorce. amazon.com/author/loisnightingale

Michael Pezzullo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Most LGBTQ folks spend a significant portion of their lives living in secrecy, isolation and shame. As a result, empathic attunement and mirroring are completely absent from their everyday life experiences. Therefore, I take an actively affirmative stance when working with LGBTQ clients.
