Dr. Stacie McPherson
Psychologist, M.A., Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
LGBTQ+ individuals often carry experiences that shape mental health in specific ways such as: minority stress, family rejection, microaggressions, the labor of coming out repeatedly, and navigating a world that still requires extra vigilance. I provide affirming therapy for queer and trans adults, with expertise in identity exploration, relationship concerns, trauma, and the intersection of LGBTQ+ identity with anxiety, depression, and trauma. As a queer psychologist I bring both lived understanding and clinical depth to this work.

As your therapist, I offer a safe, affirming space where you can openly discuss your experiences as an LGBTQ individual and explore your identity without fear of judgment. Together, we’ll address the unique challenges you may face—such as coming out, navigating relationships, or dealing with discrimination—and develop strategies to support your mental health and well-being. I draw on evidence-based approaches and a deep understanding of LGBTQ issues to help you build self-acceptance, resilience, and authentic connections. My goal is to empower you to live more fully and confidently as your true self. With compassionate guidance, we’ll work through life’s complexities and celebrate your growth along the way

Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
Being LGBTQ+ can mean building a life, family, and community in ways that others may take for granted. IT can mean navigating rejection, estrangement, relationships that don't fit traditional expectations, or losses that others don't fully recognize. As a gay psychologist, I bring both professional experience and personal understanding of queer life to our work. You shouldn't have to explain why your chosen family matter or educate your therapist about the basics of your experience before getting to what you really need to talk about. You get to show up as yourself, talk about what's actually going on, and figure out what you want your life to look like from here.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I am passionate about serving the LGBT community, for professional and personal reasons. I am attuned to the societal challenges faced by people who have been historically and socio-politically "othered" by society, and feel alert to the particular types of relational trauma experienced by those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, non-binary, and gender-fluid.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hi! Scary world out there, huh? I don't know about you, but it feels like since Obergefell v. Hodges things have been getting scarier and scarier for our community. If you're feeling anxious, exhausted, outrage fatigued, sad, or any of the other big feels that makes so much sense! Let's give you a space to process that and build the skills that you need to be able to thrive. In a world like this, our most powerful resistance is to choose joy in the face of oppression.

Skye D Ross, EMDR Therapist for High Achieving Women
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C, MPH, EMDR-Certified Therapist & Consultant In Training
As a bisexual therapist, I understand how bi-erasure can impact your own coming out story, your relationship with yourself, partners, and the queer community. Beyond my work with people who identify as bi, as a perinatal mental health therapist, I often work with other members of the family through their fertility and parenting journey for those who choose to proceed down that path. When your path to parenthood looks different from others, it can be devastating to see people start families with ease. I'm here to hold you in that unexpected grief, through the unknown of your journey, and to celebrate with you when things go well.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
As a queer, nonbinary individual, I have a soft spot for the LGBTQ++ community and about half my clients identify as sexual or gender diverse. As a university professor, I enjoy working within a professional setting to show students that you can be accepted, celebrated, successful, etc. as a queer and gender nonconforming professional.
