Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
My near 20 years of experience has helped me develop an approach to therapy that involves providing a supportive and affirming environment where you can explore their identity and experiences while feeling accepted and affirmed. It is important to acknowledging and validating the unique challenges faced by LGBT+ individuals, such as discrimination, internalized homophobia, and coming out. Therapy can help address issues you may have related to self-acceptance, relationship dynamics, and coping with societal pressures. By fostering a safe space, my hope is to empower you to develop resilience, enhance self-esteem, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

I have seen multiple gay and trans people and feel comfortable with encouraging people to stand up for their rights. This is especially important during this difficult time that we are going through.

Wyatt Okeefe
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, LPCC
Throughout my career, I have specialized in working with adults in the LGBTQIA+ community, with a particular focus on transgender and nonbinary individuals, partners navigating gender transition together, and supportive family members and friends. I also work with adults who have experienced childhood abuse and may be coping with trauma-related concerns, depression, anxiety, intimacy, and relationship challenges. My approach provides a supportive space to explore identity, relationships, healing, and personal growth. I do not provide traditional couples therapy.
