Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Working with members of the queer community has always been at the heart of what I do as a therapist. I have over a decade of experience of working with members of the queer community in therapy, and have helped folks through all sorts of issues that impact our community in unique ways (e.g., coming out, coming in to oneself, family issues, religious trauma, minority stress and discrimination, internalized homophobia, intersection of other marginalized identities, and more). My goal is to provide a safe and affirming space for sexual and gender minorities to feel free to be their most authentic selves in the therapy room.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.

Christina Walthers
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC
We queer folks often carry both the weight of being misunderstood and the beauty of finding ourselves outside of expectation. I'm especially passionate about supporting queer, trans, and gender-diverse folks (LGBTQ+ folks) and am committed to offering a space that is deeply affirming, grounded, and genuinely welcoming. Here, you do not have to translate yourself or explain the basics of your experience. You can simply be you, however you show up in the moment. Together, we make room for what has been painful, confusing, or isolating, while also staying close to what is resilient, creative, and uniquely yours. My hope is that you feel seen, respected, and met with care, and that our work supports a kind of healing and growth that feels authentic, empowering, and truly your own.
