Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Wherever you are on your journey, I aim to support you. We can work together on defining goals for your care whether it be exploring your identity, exploring if/how to share your identity with others, or coping with other stressors related to your life, we will take each as it comes. For some, their gender or sexual identity (or how others currently or historically have responded negatively or harmfully to you) is at the forefront of their life and treatment goals, and for some it is an important part of themselves but not a current focus for care. I aim to be affirming in all that we do, learning about and supporting you as a whole human worthy of dignity, respect, and kindness.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When bias and discrimination are part of a person's problems, I show them how not to anger themselves and then how to address the prejudice and discrimination constructively. In cases where people are shameful about their sexuality, I teach them how to unconditionally accept themselves and never to shame themselves for who they are and what they like both sexually and non-sexually.

Dr. Wayne Bullock
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd
Identifying within a minority group creates a host of stresses, along with all of the other challenges of life. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ persons and understand the aggressions, micro and otherwise, that face these communities. I also understand the pressures that can arise from internalized messages from a heteronormative society. You deserve a space where you can unpack all of your feelings about these, as well as construct your narrative of who you are and where you want to be in life.
