Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
As a trained sex therapist, I have deep respect for the journeys of the LGBTQ experience and acknowledge they are all not the same. Whether it is about communicating with one's partner, coming out to family, or exploring a budding sexuality or desire - I offer supportive and affirmative therapy to rise in confidence and compassion.

Alexis Hollingsworth
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have worked with many clients struggling with their gender and sexual identities, often riddled with fear about what it would mean to explore this side of themselves. Together we can explore the many challenges you may be facing when it comes to either your gender, sexuality, or both and how we can help you to live a more authentic life for you.

LGBTQ+ individuals can face unique challenges related to identity, acceptance, and stress from societal pressures. Hypnotherapy provides a safe, affirming space to explore these experiences, reduce anxiety, and build self-acceptance. Sessions support confidence, emotional well-being, and a stronger sense of authenticity in everyday life.

Thea Integrative Therapy: Celine R. Williams
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT #155675
As someone who proudly identifies as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, creating a safe and affirming space where you can show up exactly as you are is deeply personal to Celine. I’m passionate about cultivating an environment free of judgment, with no need to edit yourself. Let’s get messy and curious, together!
Whether you’re exploring your sexual identity or gender transition, pursing gender affirming care, navigating coming out to friends and family, working through LGBTQ relationship challenges, managing our hellish political climate, or healing from past (or current) trauma, I’m here to walk alongside you. My lived experiences provide an innate understanding of the intricacies of the queer experience; especially as impacted by the current political attacks on our community.
