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.

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.
