Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
As a gay psychologist, I understand that LGBTQ+ experiences are shaped by far more than identity alone. Whether you're navigating coming out, relationships, family dynamics, marginalization stress, or simply looking for a therapist who understands your lived experience, I offer an affirming space where every part of you is welcome. Together, we'll explore life's challenges with curiosity, compassion, and a focus on building a life that brings meaning, vitality, and purpose. My goal is to help you build greater flexibility in responding to challenging emotions and experiences so that your day-to-day rhythm feels more authentic, connected, and free.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a member of the LGBT community, and as someone who holds degrees both in psychology and LGBT Health and Policy, I couple an academic understanding of the unique disparities that come with these identities with a profound personal knowledge of them in my own life. Not all patients have had positive experiences with the medical community, so it is my hope that my education and bisexual identity will serve my patients in a way that makes them feel both heard and seen. I also recognize that our identities can be static, or they can be fluid, and that the coming out process isn’t something we do just once: we do it over and over again. I do not personally identify as cisgender, and so I approach the issues facing the transgender, nonbinary, genderqueer, and gender non-conforming communities with deep empathy and personal understanding. From fluidity to transitioning, hormone replacement therapy, to writing letters for surgery, I am committed to supporting my clients on their journeys. Not everyone experiences their own gender in the same way, so the discussion of gender as a construct and societal gender norms is at the forefront of our discussions in working through the big mess that is gender.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I am passionate about serving the LGBT community, for professional and personal reasons. I am attuned to the societal challenges faced by people who have been historically and socio-politically "othered" by society, and feel alert to the particular types of relational trauma experienced by those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, non-binary, and gender-fluid.

Tony D Silva
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LCPC
As a child I endured ostracism, alienation, bigotry, as the manifest fear of those who saw me as different. I developed a strong compassion for those who suffer from the fear of heterosexuals. Further, I understand that the relationship issues experienced by those who identify as LGBTQIA are equally "attachment based" as those who don't identify as such, but with unique societal, cultural and relational challenges that require open hearted curiosity to understand the individual or the relationship beyond the label.
