Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
You deserve a therapist who gets it. Not one who needs you to educate them, not one who treats your identity as the problem to be solved, not one who's "fine with it" but clearly uncomfortable. Our clinicians provide LGBTQ+ affirming care that goes deeper than surface-level acceptance. We understand the specific stressors you navigate: family rejection or tension, coming out at different life stages, discrimination, internalized messages you're still untangling, relationships that don't fit the scripts you were handed. You don't have to translate your experience here. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Being part of the LGBTQIA+ community can bring incredible strength and resilience—but it can also come with unique challenges. Even as acceptance grows, discrimination, judgment, and pressure to conform still impact daily life and mental health.
Whether you’re coming out, exploring your gender or sexual identity, navigating family dynamics, considering non-monogamy, raising children, or aging in a world that doesn’t always understand—you're not alone. These experiences can bring up anxiety, depression, shame, or isolation, and you don’t have to carry that alone.
Therapy offers a space to talk openly about identity, sex, relationships, and health—including informed sexual decision-making and options like PrEP—without fear of judgment.
You deserve affirming care that respects who you are and supports where you want to go. Together, we can help you feel more grounded, empowered, and aligned with your values.

Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
Working with members of the queer community has always been at the heart of what I do as a therapist. I have over a decade of experience of working with members of the queer community in therapy, and have helped folks through all sorts of issues that impact our community in unique ways (e.g., coming out, coming in to oneself, family issues, religious trauma, minority stress and discrimination, internalized homophobia, intersection of other marginalized identities, and more). My goal is to provide a safe and affirming space for sexual and gender minorities to feel free to be their most authentic selves in the therapy room.
