Omer Harari
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I approach therapy as an anti-oppressive project. In my work supporting LGBTQ+ clients, in addition to identifying and managing the impacts of traumas, patterns, beliefs and narratives, we focus to identify the specific impacts of homophobia, transphobia, gender binaries, and other power structures that contribute to marginalization.

David Andreone
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, AMFT
I'm well-versed in the pain-points that come with being queer in America -- the discrimination, the family shame, the religious judgment, the micro-aggressions, and more. Love is love, acceptance is acceptance, and you're perfect regardless of who you love.

Dr. Jag Soni
Psychologist, Ph.D., HSPP, PCC, SPHR, SHRM-SCP
Navigating LGBT Issues, identity, or the stressors of a misaligned social environment requires a therapist who understands the nuances of the LGBTQIA2S+ experience. Drawing on 35 years of evidence-based practice, I provide a high-level, affirming space to explore your authentic self and address the root causes of minority stress. We work to foster the internal shifts that allow you to live with pride and mental clarity, moving past the weight of societal expectations. In a private and secure Telehealth setting, I am ready to support your journey—contact me to schedule your first appointment.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
LGBTQ+ individuals may experience minority stress related to societal prejudice, discrimination, and stigma, which can have significant impacts on their mental health and well-being. I help clients identify and cope with the stressors they face, develop resilience and coping strategies, and process any trauma related to discrimination or harassment.

LGBTQ+ Issues
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.
