Eric Tivers (ADHD reWired)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
As a queer, bisexual, and sex-positive therapist, I know how powerful it can be to have a space where you don’t have to explain or edit who you are. My practice is fully LGBTQ+ affirming and welcoming of all identities and relationship structures, including polyamorous and kink communities. As a bisexual man, I understand the unique challenges of biphobia and bi-erasure — both within and outside of the LGBTQ+ community — and how isolating that can feel.
I also understand how shame, masking, and rejection can shape our sense of self — and how healing it can be to feel seen, accepted, and supported just as you are. In therapy, we’ll explore identity, relationships, and self-expression in ways that align with your values and your nervous system. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed, honoring the intersections of queerness, neurodivergence, and authenticity. Whether you’re processing coming out, navigating gender or relationship transitions, or simply wanting to live more fully as yourself, this is a space where all of you is welcome.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals navigating LGBT issues by providing an affirming and supportive space to explore identity, relationships, and life experiences. LGBT concerns can include coming out, navigating family or social dynamics, internalized stigma, the impact of religion or spirituality, and experiences of discrimination or minority stress. In therapy, we focus on strengthening self-acceptance, processing these experiences, and building resilience in a way that feels validating and empowering. My approach is collaborative and centered on helping you feel more confident in your identity while creating a life that aligns with your values.

Dr. Evelyn Comber
Psychologist, L.C.P.C., Ph.D., M.A., M.P.C., M.H.S., B.G.S.
As an ally to LGBTQ+ people, I am committed to providing you with high quality service that suits your needs. Wherever on the rainbow you are, know that you are accepted and respected. I have some experience in this area, but hesitate to call myself an expert because, as you know, unless you are living and being in the world as an LGBTQ+ - you don't *really* know. However, I get regular training as an ally and am truly open to hearing your experience plus I bring 20+years of therapeutic knowledge of working with LGBTQ+ to the table.

Lisa J. Taylor
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are struggling to find joy or peace in any of your important relationships, please know that help and support are available! As a relationship therapist, I am committed to creating an affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals, couples, and families, as well as for those in non-traditional relationships. I also welcome the opportunity to work with clients who are experiencing conflict about adapting to a child or other family member's change in expressed identity, such as when a family member shares that they are gay or trans. Differences in worldview can make it difficult to adjust to learning this new information, but I am here to help you understand and find new ways to connect to your loved one.
