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.

Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
As a bisexual woman, I seek to affirm and support my LGBT clients. I understand how complex our relationship can be to our sexuality, and work to help clients through various issues such as internalized homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia, values conflicts (e.g. with family, culture or religion), and supporting through the coming out process. I work with many Ace/Aro individuals as well as trans and non-binary folks.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Affirming care means more than hanging a flag. It means you will not spend your session explaining yourself, educating your therapist, or wondering whether it is safe to say the real thing. I work with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples navigating identity, relationships, sexuality, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that does not always make that easy. You can just be yourself here. That is the whole point.

Lisa J. Taylor
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are struggling to find joy or peace in any of your important relationships, please know that help and support are available! As a relationship therapist, I am committed to creating an affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals, couples, and families, as well as for those in non-traditional relationships. I also welcome the opportunity to work with clients who are experiencing conflict about adapting to a child or other family member's change in expressed identity, such as when a family member shares that they are gay or trans. Differences in worldview can make it difficult to adjust to learning this new information, but I am here to help you understand and find new ways to connect to your loved one.
