Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Feeling safe and understood are fundamental to having a positive experience with therapy. I offer identity-affirming care that allows for free and deep exploration of current issues and ongoing patterns, without worrying about hidden judgments or over-pathologizing. Trans, poly, and ace inclusive and affirming.

Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
Our sexuality is integral to our identity, and is deeply personal, and should be a source of joy and an avenue of discovery. Sometimes though we may have to be freed from our self-perception and judgments around that (and that of other people). We can talk about your unique experience in a free and non-judgmental way, and help you open a path to the fullest appreciation of your unique personhood.

Jen Johnston Collaborative Change Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, LMHC
One of our passions as a group of providers is working with people from the LGBTQ+ community. We help clients navigate questions regarding their sexual and gender identities, as well as how to move forward in ways that are consistent with their goals and values. We also understand the effects of minority stress over time, and how this can effect other mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and mood dysregulation. Thus, we work with many queer clients around issues unrelated to sexual or gender identity, but always from a position of affirmation of those identities.
We also understand that there can be a lot of fear when seeking out providers in the mental health system around gender dysphoria. Individuals with gender dysphoria may fear being dismissed, invalidated, or worse. Parents of children who are questioning their gender may fear being judged for any concerns and be uncertain how best to move forward. Our approach is that of compassionate listening. As individuals, we want to hear your unique story and experience with gender as well as your hopes for the future, whether or not that conforms with any external expectations. As parents, we want to hear your unique story and experience with your child around their gender too and help you with the questions you may have. Our aim is to create a safe and inclusive environment.

5 Pointes Wellness
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, ACS, CST
Navigating identity, coming out, discrimination, and relationship dynamics can feel isolating. I provide culturally affirming care, advocate for self‑acceptance, and support integration of all aspects of your authentic identity. As a cis, hetero woman, I am an ally to those in the LGBTQ community.

Molly Toomey
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
For nearly two decades, I've worked closely with folks in the LGBTQIA+ community—queer, trans, questioning, and beyond! Whether you're grappling with identity, belonging, isolation, being valid or "queer enough", being a late bloomer/feeling like an impostor, struggling with invisibility or erasure, feeling torn between different desires, struggling with family members, or feeling intense stress and anxiety in the current political/social climate... this is a space for you to be yourself, to process openly, to be understood without having to explain yourself. My work, especially with queer and trans folks, is affirming and trauma-informed. I'm also kink-informed and friendly toward alternative sexualities and relationship models. I offer specialized support to LGBTQ+ folks who are also neurodivergent and/or immigrants.
