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.

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.

I intimately know the challenges that come with a queer identity in a heteronormative, patriarchal world. If you are struggling to love yourself or your people or are dealing with intense anxiety, shame, and communication challenges, you've come to the right place. Together we will create a treatment plan to help you heal and grow in love with yourself and your people.
