Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
I love working with women who identify as queer/lesbian/bi or are questioning their sexuality later in life. Perhaps this means you have been in a heteronormative relationship throughout your life, but are coming to terms with your authentic identity. This process can be distressing, especially as you navigate dating and talking-to friends/family about your orientation. Therapy can be helpful in providing a space to process emotions and receive support during this journey.

Tina Nickels
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I have the lived experience of being persecuted for my sexual orientation. I was a late bloomer and my coming out was not traumatic or painful. Yet, I understand what you are going through. I am very open-minded and there is no judgment here. I believe everyone should have a seat at the table.
