Authentically You Counseling
Treatment Center, LCMHC
Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference!
I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all.
Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!

Steffanie Grossman, PhD, CEDS-C
Psychologist, PhD, CEDS-C
Individuals of the LGBTQ+ community have frequently faced oppression that causes pain, internalized homophobia, transphobia, biphobia, & isolation. It can be terrifying to enter into a space hoping to obtain support, but not knowing if you will experience further oppression and rejection. As marginalized sexual identities and gender identities can be hidden identities, that you choose to allow someone to know, it is an honor to be let into your authentic world and help you heal and explore. To note, I also provide assessments for gender dysphoria and related letters in support of gender-affirming medical and legal procedures.

Maria Elizabeth LeBlanc
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.Ed MSW LICSW
Today, more than ever, those identifying as LGBTQIA+ need support and understanding from a skilled clinician familiar with the joy and challenges of living true to one's identity. I have worked extensively with those both questioning their orientation/identity and those that are fully out (or out to varying degrees) in navigating family, work, and societal challenges.

Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
LGBTQ+ individuals may face unique challenges related to identity, relationships, belonging, discrimination, and acceptance, while also navigating the universal struggles of being human. My approach is affirming, inclusive, and grounded in existential-humanistic and relational psychotherapy. I recognize the importance of understanding each person's experiences within their social, cultural, and relational contexts, including the impact of prejudice, marginalization, and societal expectations. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore questions of identity, authenticity, relationships, and meaning without pressure to conform to others' expectations. Together, we work toward greater self-understanding, self-acceptance, meaningful connections, and the freedom to live more fully and authentically.
