Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
My personal belief and my coaching ethos is that you are a whole, creative, resourceful person as you are, right now. That is a belief that is being challenged ad nauseam in the current climate. Assuming nothing, as a Holistic Life Coach, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to speak your truth, be who you are, and figure out what you want from life without anyone else's input, influence, or expectations. While this is true for everyone, it can be an even more powerful experience for those of us who feel silenced and rendered invisible in any aspect of our lives. I am NOT offering therapy, but coaching can absolutely complement and supplement your therapy work. Instead, I offer a toolbox of methods, approaches, and experiments that most therapists do not. Tools designed to help you embrace your success without apology; create ease in a world of hardship; center yourself and ground in your own wisdom; and come into agreement with yourself regardless of the dissonance of others.

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.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
LGBTQ+ experiences are shaped by both personal identity and broader social contexts, which can impact safety, self-expression, and a sense of belonging. I approach this work with affirmation and respect, recognizing the importance of being seen and understood without judgment. Alongside our work together, I hold an advocacy-oriented perspective, supporting you in navigating challenges while honoring your identity and lived experience.
