Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I approach LGBT issues with heartfelt understanding and a deep commitment to providing a safe, affirming space. I recognize the unique challenges and emotional complexities that can arise from navigating identity, societal pressures, and personal relationships within the LGBT community. I aim to offer a haven of acceptance and support, where each individual can explore their authentic self without fear or judgment. Together, we'll work towards healing from past hurts, embracing your true identity, and building a life filled with self-acceptance, pride, and joy. It's a journey of discovering one's strength and beauty in a world that is learning to celebrate diversity in all its forms.

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. 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.
