Ann Abbey
Limited License Psychologist, MA, LLP, RYT
.I provide affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ clients navigating identity, coming out, relationships, discrimination, family dynamics, or transitions. As a queer-affirming therapist, I offer a safer, inclusive space where all parts of you are welcome. My approach centers empowerment, authenticity, and emotional safety while addressing anxiety, trauma, self-acceptance, and the impact of living in a world that isn’t always supportive.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Affirming care means more than hanging a flag. It means you will not spend your session explaining yourself, educating your therapist, or wondering whether it is safe to say the real thing. I work with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples navigating identity, relationships, sexuality, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that does not always make that easy. You can just be yourself here. That is the whole point.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
This practice is explicitly LGBTQ+ affirming. I work with queer, trans, and questioning clients around identity development, coming out, family/religious rejection, SOGICE/conversion therapy aftereffects, and the day-to-day toll of minority stress. We’ll honor your gender/sexuality as healthy expressions of who you are and help you heal from any messages that said otherwise. You get to bring all of you into the room.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
LGBTQIA-specific therapy provides affirming care for individuals whose gender identity and/or sexuality generally differ from those who identify as cisgender (gender and/or expression aligns with sex assigned at birth) and heterosexual (attracted to the opposite sex).
Stigma and “minority stress”, including experiences of violence, discrimination, prejudice, and other negative social encounters due to gender identity, expression, or sexuality, contribute to a greater likelihood that people in this community will develop mental health challenges.
LGBTQ therapy provided by licensed mental health professionals is a valuable resource for members of the LGBTQIA community. Finding the right therapist who understands the challenges of gender transition, gender nonconforming identity, and discrimination can be critical to resolving mental health issues, relationship issues, and anger management. LGBTQ therapy offers a safe, supportive space to discuss lesbian, gay, bisexual, and gender nonconforming concerns, providing immediate help and affirming care.

LGBTQ+ Issues
Dan Cooke
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW, CAADC, ADS
I have worked directly with LGBTQ+ people as a focus of my practice and as an ally, as having a gender affirming therapist is essential for a person's wellness. Teenagers and young adults often benefit from the support and open ended dialogue in therapy sessions. Aspects of gender and sexuality are diverse and are a significant part of the therapy process specifically for transgender people going through any transitions such as beginning hormone therapy. We coordinate care with your doctor and/or endocrenologist when needed.

Sarah Rollins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Exploring your identity, relationships, or experiences as an LGBTQ+ person can come with unique challenges, especially in environments that feel invalidating or unsafe. Therapy offers a supportive space where you can show up fully as yourself without judgment. We work from an affirming, trauma-informed perspective that honors your experiences and supports your emotional well-being, identity exploration, and healing.
