Alignment Psychotherapy, PLLC
Psychologist, LP, PhD
We are committed to providing affirming, inclusive, and culturally responsive care for members of the LGBTQIA+ community. As a queer-founded practice, we bring both professional expertise and lived understanding to the therapeutic relationship, allowing us to approach this work with authenticity, respect, and deep sensitivity. We recognize that LGBTQIA+ individuals often navigate unique challenges, including stigma, discrimination, identity exploration, family dynamics, and the impact of systemic inequities. At the same time, we honor the resilience, creativity, and strength within queer communities. Our work is grounded in creating a space where clients feel seen, supported, and free to explore their identities without fear of judgment. Our approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual, integrating evidence-based practices with an awareness of the social and cultural contexts that shape our clients’ experiences. Whether clients are seeking support around identity, relationships, mental health concerns, or life transitions, we aim to provide care that is not only clinically effective, but also affirming of who they are. We are dedicated to fostering a therapeutic environment where LGBTQIA+ clients can build insight, develop coping tools, and move toward lives that feel more aligned, empowered, and meaningful.

Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I strive to provide an affirming, respectful environment where LGBTQ+ clients can explore identity, relationships, stress, life transitions, and the impact of discrimination or minority stress. Therapy is tailored to your individual experiences and goals—not assumptions about who you are.

Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
As a bisexual woman, I seek to affirm and support my LGBT clients. I understand how complex our relationship can be to our sexuality, and work to help clients through various issues such as internalized homophobia, biphobia, and transphobia, values conflicts (e.g. with family, culture or religion), and supporting through the coming out process. I work with many Ace/Aro individuals as well as trans and non-binary folks.
