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.

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.
