LGBT Issues therapists in Pismo Beach, California CA
Erik Edler
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LMFT
This is an important time for LGBT people, one of great opportunity but also one of great challenge. When gay, lesbian, and bisexual people are looking for a therapist, they're looking for someone who really gets them. It's so much easier and you cover a lot more ground a lot faster when you have a therapist that really understands the issues specific to the LGBT community. I have a special calling and dedication to helping gay, lesbian, and bisexual people truly thrive.

In therapy, we value creating a safe, warm, trusting environment where you will develop new insight into your life and cultivate new strategies to meet your goals.

Chad Cryder
Psychologist, PhD
As a gay male, I understand the struggle, the feelings of isolation, and shame that can arise from coming to terms with our gender and sexual minority status. However, it is from our experiences where we find our strength and growth. You are not alone, and no matter where you fall within the LGBTQI+ community, I believe in your inherent greatness and want to help you believe it.
