Skye D Ross, EMDR Therapist for High Achieving Women
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C, MPH, EMDR-Certified Therapist & Approved EMDR Consultant
As a bisexual therapist, I understand how bi-erasure can impact your own coming out story, your relationship with yourself, partners, and the queer community. Beyond my work with people who identify as bi, as a perinatal mental health therapist, I often work with other members of the family through their fertility and parenting journey for those who choose to proceed down that path. When your path to parenthood looks different from others, it can be devastating to see people start families with ease. I'm here to hold you in that unexpected grief, through the unknown of your journey, and to celebrate with you when things go well.

Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
LGBTQ+ couples face all the usual relationship challenges, plus the added stress of being misunderstood, judged, or navigating systems that weren’t built with you in mind. I provide a safe, affirming space where you don’t have to explain who you are before we get to the work of healing, growing, or reconnecting. Your relationship deserves support that sees and respects your whole story.

Sarah Green
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
As a queer provider, I offer a space where you don't have to explain or defend who you are. I'm affirming of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and relationship structures, including polyamory and ENM. Together we can explore identity, relationships, family dynamics, and the impact of living in a world that often isn't built for us, while deconstructing the harmful social norms and internalized messages that get in the way of living as yourself.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I provide affirming, trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating LGBTQ+ identity, coming out, minority stress, relationship dynamics, and societal pressures. I focus on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their identity, experiences, and relationships without needing to educate their therapist.
I offer queer therapy and trans-affirming care, integrating attachment-based, somatic, and parts-informed approaches to help clients process emotions, regulate stress, and strengthen self-understanding. Therapy emphasizes self-compassion, resilience, and empowerment, supporting clients in building authentic connections with themselves and others while navigating the unique challenges of LGBTQ+ life.
