Therapy with Kat
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I provide telehealth therapy for LGBTQ+ teens and adults seeking a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to navigate relationship challenges, family stress, and questions about identity. My approach is collaborative, gentle, and trauma-informed, supporting insight, emotional regulation, and meaningful personal growth. Sessions move at your pace, with room to pause, check in, and use grounding or somatic practices as needed. My goal is for you to feel supported, steady, and more connected to yourself when you leave each session.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain yourself and where your identity, relationships, and experiences are met with deep understanding and care. Whether you're navigating coming out, family dynamics, relationships, or the weight of societal expectations, therapy can be a place to explore who you are without fear or judgment. Together, we’ll work toward self-acceptance, connection, and a life that feels truly aligned with who you are.

Kristina Risola
Counselor/Therapist, RMHCI, CRC, NBC-HWC
If you are autistic, neurodivergent, and/or LGBTQIA+ and tired of therapy that feels designed for everyone but you, we might click. I'm an autistic therapist who supports fellow neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ adults through trauma, anxiety, chronic illness, and the day-to-day challenges of navigating a world that feels incompatible with who we are. By exploring your unique experiences, communication style, and ways of relating to the world, I aim to create a space where you can drop the mask, heal what pains you, and discover what it means to be unapologetically yourself.
