HIV/AIDS
Lyz Luidens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Living with HIV/AIDS can be very isolating and scary, but it does not have to be! I offer an affirming therapy environment for you to explore ways to cope with your diagnosis, and build a healthy, compassionate relationship to yourself and your health. As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I am aware of the stigma that can accompany these diagnoses, and I'm here to support you in navigating all of the issues that may arise as a result or alongside HIV/AIDS in a compassionate, non-judgemental space.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
I provide affirming, trauma-aware support for people living with HIV. Together we can address the emotional impact of diagnosis, medication fatigue, stigma (including from faith or family systems), and the stress of managing other mental health concerns alongside HIV care. Sessions are a place to be fully seen — LGBTQ+ identities, relationships, and chosen family included — while we build skills for mood, anxiety, and healthy boundaries.

HIV/AIDS
Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
In therapy, an individual can explore ways to cope with the mental health impacts of HIV and AIDS. Some mental health professionals may have particular training in treating people who have a life-threatening or chronic illness, and these therapists and counselors may be particularly suited to treat those who have been diagnosed with HIV or AIDS.
Because AIDS, which can develop from HIV, is a life-threatening illness, people infected with HIV may also wish to seek end-of-life counseling, especially as the disease reaches final stages. In therapy, individuals can discuss medically necessary issues with a therapist, make plans for the future for any family members or children who might need care, and come to terms with the eventual end of their life. In this manner, they are able to exercise control over the aspects of life that they still are able to control, as control over the body diminishes.
HIV progression may also lead to cognitive impairment, as the virus can affect the brain. Dementia, delirium, and psychosis are some of the conditions that can result, and should any of these conditions develop, a combination of therapy and psychiatric medications may be an effective treatment.
