Molly Halbrooks
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Particularly now, it's vital to have a protected place to process fears, trauma, identity questions, anger, grief, and a multitude of other concerns that are heightened for members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I hold a safe, non-judgemental, and open space for all individuals, and affirm the identities that are a part of who you are.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Discovering and living your authentic self in the areas of gender and sexuality should be something to celebrate — but in a world that still too often meets queerness with fear or shame, that journey can be complicated, painful, and isolating. I offer affirming, gender-inclusive therapy that holds space for all of who you are, without pathologizing or minimizing your experience. Whether you're navigating coming out, internalized shame, identity questions, discrimination trauma, or the unique stress of living in a heteronormative world, you belong here — fully and without editing yourself.
