Rory Valentine Diller
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., LMFT Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #139783
LGBTQ folks face a tidal wave of implicit messages, conditioning, oppression, and trauma amidst growing up in a heteronormative and sometimes unsafe world. I work with clients to dis-identify from toxic cultural conditioning and move towards empowerment and self-celebration. I have much experience working with LGBTQ survivors of violence, sexual trauma, substance and alcohol abuse, family trauma, poverty and abusive relationships as these issues affect LGBTQ people at disproportionate rates compared to our heterosexual, non-trans peers.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
As a gay man living in Los Angeles for over twenty years, I have experienced the challenges of cultivating and maintaining a genuine sense of self while being bombarded with body image issues, homophobia, gay shame, and the hyper-sexualized competitive nature of the gay community. As gay men, our sexual currency can sometimes become the focus of how we see and place value on ourselves. This can lead to addiction, self-loathing cycles, self-harm, anxiety, and depression. I am passionate about helping you dismantle what society, and the gay community has led you to believe about yourself. Together, we will get to the root of what makes you feel centered, authentic, and grounded. I am highly invested in creating a judgment-free space for you to feel safe to talk about anything you feel is relevant to your growth.
