Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain yourself and where your identity, relationships, and experiences are met with deep understanding and care. Whether you're navigating coming out, family dynamics, relationships, or the weight of societal expectations, therapy can be a place to explore who you are without fear or judgment. Together, we’ll work toward self-acceptance, connection, and a life that feels truly aligned with who you are.

Zaray Dratch
Pre-Licensed Professional, MFT-LP
Finding a therapist who doesn't need you to explain yourself from the beginning makes a difference. For LGBTQ+ clients, too many therapy experiences start with education, having to define terms, justify your relationship structure, or convince your therapist that your life is valid. That's not what happens here.
Whether you're navigating coming out, relationship dynamics that don't fit a traditional mold, family rejection, identity, or the particular kind of stress that comes from living in a world that still requires you to fight for basic dignity, this is a space that starts from affirmation and moves forward from there. No explaining, no justifying, no shrinking.
Relationship issues within LGBTQ+ partnerships carry their own specific weight. Communication, intimacy, trust, and commitment look different when you're also managing external pressure, internalized stigma, or the absence of relationship models that actually reflect your life. All of that is welcome here.

Maggie McCarthy
Counselor/Therapist, LMSW
I work with LGBTQIA+ clients and utilize a culturally sensitive, strengths-based approach to partner with you and meet your goals of healing, whatever they might be. Your identity impacts how you interact with the world and how the world interacts with you, and you deserve a safe affirming space to process and explore that considers how societal structures, stigma, and shame play a role in your well-being.

Maricia Thompson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
It is a know fact that members of the LGBTQIA community are faced with many challenges and these challenges can lead to struggles with a number of mental health issues. As a lesbian therapist, I understand the struggle and make it my goal to understand your individual struggle as well. Issues such as gender identity/expression, expressing sexual orientation, coming out to family and friends and dealing with discrimination amongst others are topics that are welcomed.
