Conor Hogan
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am an LGBTQ+-affirming therapist with experience working with individuals across the gender and sexuality spectrum, and I continue to pursue training in this area. I understand the importance of feeling safe with a therapist and am sadly aware of the harm the field (both intentional and unintentional) has done to people of various marginalized identities. I also do not make any identity the center of therapeutic work unless it is something the client wants to work on.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Being part of the LGBTQIA+ community can bring incredible strength and resilience—but it can also come with unique challenges. Even as acceptance grows, discrimination, judgment, and pressure to conform still impact daily life and mental health.
Whether you’re coming out, exploring your gender or sexual identity, navigating family dynamics, considering non-monogamy, raising children, or aging in a world that doesn’t always understand—you're not alone. These experiences can bring up anxiety, depression, shame, or isolation, and you don’t have to carry that alone.
Therapy offers a space to talk openly about identity, sex, relationships, and health—including informed sexual decision-making and options like PrEP—without fear of judgment.
You deserve affirming care that respects who you are and supports where you want to go. Together, we can help you feel more grounded, empowered, and aligned with your values.
