Gracie Orellano
Marriage and Family Therapist, ALMFT
As a queer individual and ally, I often use my experiences within today's culture to provide insight and create connection with my clients. This identity also informs me of how to help navigate challenges faced due to ongoing societal narratives. Things can get especially tough in this community when there aren't people who understand your perspective. I want to provide a space where my LGBT+ clients feel comfortable to be themselves and express their struggles.

Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
I operate from lens of decolinization and anti-racism that informs the way I view, relate, and treat all people, including those within the LQBTQ community. I provide a non-judgemental space to talk about all aspects of sexual and gender identity and tend to conceptualize stress and suffering around sexual identity as a product of living within a homophobic/transphobic society rather than a function of internal pathology.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Some LGBTQ+ clients come to therapy with concerns directly connected to their identities and experiences, while others want to address broader areas of their lives with a therapist to whom they don't need to explain their identity.
With LGBTQ+ clients, it can often be important to recognize the effects of stigma, discrimination, rejection, and social or political uncertainty while also recognizing sources of strength, including resilience, authenticity, pride, chosen family, friendship, and community.
