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.

Ken Howard, LCSW, CST - GayTherapyLA.com
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CST
Ken has been a gay men's specialist psychotherapist and coach for over 30 years in 2022, the most experienced gay men's specialist psychotherapist in the United States today, and as one of the first openly gay licensed psychotherapists to be associated publicly with LGBT-affirmative, gay-specific services, and one of the first two websites ("GayTherapyLA.com") nationally to feature the words "gay" or "LGBT" in the URL. He was trained at the Los Angeles LGBT Center, AIDS Project Los Angeles, Pacific Clinics - Pasadena, and the AIDS Service Center. He has been living with HIV/AIDS since 1990, and has been working continuously in support of the Los Angeles and national LGBTQ+ community since 1988. He has written hundreds of magazine articles, conference presentations, blog articles (GayTheraypyLA.com/blog), and podcast episodes ("Gay Therapy LA with Ken Howard, LCSW, CST") on specifically gay men's mental health and well-being, as well as other LGBT advocacy/activism.

I have 18 years experience working with the West Hollywood community.
21 Years Experience
Online in Stockton, CA California
Stockton has one of the highest rates of poverty and violent crime among California's major cities, and therapists here frequently work with community-level trauma, economic stress, and the psychological effects of chronic violence exposure in a city that faced serious challenges including municipal bankruptcy in 2012. The city is remarkably diverse — with large Hispanic, Cambodian, Filipino, and Hmong communities — making multilingual and culturally informed therapists essential to meaningful mental health access. San Joaquin General Hospital and Dameron Hospital provide institutional resources alongside community clinics serving underserved populations. The University of the Pacific's psychology programs supply some clinical training to the region, though therapist density remains lower than in comparable California cities.
