Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
I help people who identify all over the gender, sexuality, and relationship spectrum. Sometimes their relationships or identity challenges are the focus of their sessions because they need support for unique situations, and sometimes it's just one aspect of a different question, such as, "Do I really want to move to that conservative city for my dream job?"
For me, LGBTQ+ includes 2S, A, poly and more. I also have a graduate certificate in Sexuality and Religion, so I understand how some religious institutions have harmed queer people. And I see and know how queer people have sacred experiences within and outside of mainstream religion, with a wide variety of spiritualities.
I'm queer (gender fluid and pansexual). I've known this since I was 13 years old, before there was so much information via the internet. I've been though many transitions of how I express myself and relate with others. You are welcome to express your truest yourself, your realest questions, and your deepest needs.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
LGBTQ+ issues are ones which are close to my heart as I am a gay-identified man. LGBTQ+ individuals share many unique experiences due to their sexual orientation and gender identity. The symptoms that result from those experience are often more accurately understood by a psychologist who has shared in those experiences. This understanding facilitates greater affirmation and validation of your needs, along with designing a more effective approach to achieve your desired symptom relief. Helping people in our LGBTQ+ community is one of the primary reasons I decided to become a psychologist.
