Dr. Michael Grey- Grey Insight
Marriage and Family Therapist, PsyD, LMFT
Navigating your identity, relationships, and mental health as an LGBTQ+ person can feel complex, exhausting, and at times, isolating. You might be questioning who you are, facing the challenges of coming out, or navigating the emotional ups and downs of transitioning. Perhaps you’re exploring nontraditional relationships or struggling with family dynamics, discrimination, or the weight of societal stigma. Whatever you’re carrying, you deserve a space where you can show up fully—without fear of judgment or having to explain yourself.
I’m here to offer you that space—one where your identity is not only seen but celebrated. My approach is sex-positive, trauma-informed, and rooted in decolonized, intersectional care that honors your lived experience. Together, we’ll unpack what’s holding you back, explore what truly matters to you, and nurture your path toward healing and self-acceptance.
Your identity is valid. Your experiences matter. And you don’t have to navigate this alone. In therapy, you’ll find support to process your struggles, celebrate your growth, and embrace your most authentic self—on your terms.

Chris Guthrey
Psychologist, PsyD
As a committed straight ally, I support gay men in navigating mental health challenges by fostering an environment of acceptance and understanding. I recognize the unique social differences gay men face, including stressors like societal stigma, internalized homophobia, and discrimination, which can contribute to higher rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use. By providing culturally sensitive care and a safe space for open dialogue, I aim to address these issues effectively, promoting well-being and resilience.
