Rebecca Connor, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I am straight, with experience and understanding working with the LGBTQ plus community. My first position as a therapist at a clinic when I moved to Minneapolis from San Francisco in the early 2000s was at a clinic that specialized in LGBTQ issues. I was the only straight therapist in this clinic.

Ben Mushel
Pre-Licensed Professional, LGSW
As a gay man, I have personally experienced many of the hardships that often come from being a part of the LGBTQIA+ community. I utilize CBT as well as EMDR to help clients navigate these difficulties while holding a wam, non-judgemental, and compassionate space.

Katherine Jones
Counselor/Therapist, ND, MA, LPC
I provide affirming and inclusive support for individuals within the LGBTQ+ community. I am committed to creating a safe and welcoming space where clients can explore their identities, navigate challenges, and celebrate their authentic selves. I understand the unique experiences and concerns faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, whether it's related to coming out, discrimination, family dynamics, relationship issues, or mental health struggles. Through culturally competent and affirming therapy approaches, I empower clients to embrace their identities, cultivate self-acceptance, and live fulfilling lives aligned with their true selves.

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.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.
