Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
LGBTQ+ individuals and couples deserve therapy that understands their relationships without treating identity or relationship structure as the problem. I provide affirming relationship therapy to clients in San Francisco, throughout California, and across Texas and Florida. We can focus on communication, attachment, intimacy, family pressures, life transitions, or the same everyday relationship challenges any couple may encounter.

LGBTQIA+ & Queer-Affirming Care
Living Authentically Beyond the Binary and the Burden
In a society that often demands conformity, the act of living authentically as a queer, trans, or non-binary individual is both a triumph and a labor. I provide a specialized, deeply affirming space where your identity is not a "topic to be managed," but a sacred part of your humanity. With my background in the QTAP Certification Training, I offer more than just "tolerance"—I offer a high-level clinical understanding of the unique stressors and joys inherent in the LGBTQIA+ experience.
Navigating the Minority Stress System
We don't just look at your internal world; we use Systems Theory to address how the external world impacts your mental health. We work through:
Minority Stress & Burnout: Addressing the chronic exhaustion that comes from navigating heteronormative and cisnormative systems.
Internalized Shame: Deconstructing the "inner critic" shaped by religious or social constructs of inequity.
The "Coming Out" Evolution: Supporting the ongoing process of disclosure with family, workplace, and spiritual communities.
For Individuals & Couples: Queer-Specific Relational Care
Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Attachment Theory, I help LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples build secure, resilient bonds:
Chosen Family & Community: Exploring the vital role of non-traditional support systems in your healing.
Navigating Transition: Providing clinical support for individuals and their partners through the emotional and systemic shifts of gender transition.
Spiritual Deconstruction: With my Master of Divinity, I provide a rare sanctuary for queer individuals to process spiritual trauma and reclaim a sense of meaning without sacrificing their identity.
Affirming Your Narrative
Whether you are navigating rejection sensitivity from family, seeking letters for gender-affirming care, or simply want a therapist who understands the nuances of queer life without you having to explain them, I am here.
"The healing space generated between therapist and client is one of the greatest honors of my life." In this space, you are seen, you are safe, and you are celebrated.

Kate Mageau (she/her)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, ADHD-CCSP, NCC, CIMHP, C-DBT
I am pansexual, part of the queer community, and a majority of my clients identify as queer or LGBTQ. I have written over 40 gender-affirming letters and I love that this part of my practice. I am available for one-time sessions for gender-affirming letters. I charge for the session but the letter is free!
