Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
I provide a specialized sanctuary for LGBT Issues, specifically focusing on the intersectional liberation of Black, Queer, and Trans/Non-binary individuals. As a transmasculine clinician, I don't require you to explain your identity; instead, we dive straight into the work of unmasking and reclamation. We move beyond "affirming" to actively building a life that celebrates your queer and trans excellence.

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
In my practice, I utilize a combination of therapeutic modalities including art therapy, CBT, and person-centered therapy to address LGBT issues with empathy and understanding. By incorporating compassion focus therapy and narrative therapy techniques, I create a supportive space for individuals to explore their unique experiences and challenges related to their sexual orientation or gender identity. Additionally, I may integrate family systems therapy to help clients navigate familial dynamics and cultivate acceptance and support within their social environment, empowering them to embrace their identities authentically.
