Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
As an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for individuals of all identities and orientations. I understand how personal and sometimes complicated the journey of self-discovery can be—especially when it comes to navigating gender identity, sexual orientation, and the coming out process.
Many LGBTQ+ individuals grow up in environments where their identities may not have been fully accepted, understood, or affirmed. This can lead to feelings of shame, anxiety, isolation, or internal conflict. It can also make typical developmental milestones—like forming relationships, building self-esteem, or setting boundaries—feel even more challenging.
In our work together, I honor the unique experiences that shape you. Whether you’re exploring your identity, facing challenges related to coming out, navigating family dynamics, or simply wanting to feel more at home in yourself, therapy can offer a meaningful path forward.
We’ll move at your pace, uncover the patterns that may be holding you back, and build tools for resilience, connection, and self-acceptance. You deserve to live a life where you feel seen, understood, and supported just as you are.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist, LCSW
As a queer person myself, I’m committed to creating a safe and affirming space where individuals can explore their identity, navigate societal pressures, and work through mental health concerns within a relational and psychoanalytic framework. My approach centers on understanding the complex interplay between personal experience, relationships, and cultural expectations.
In our work, we’ll explore the unconscious dynamics that shape identity and relationships. This may include themes like internalized homophobia, family dynamics, and the impact of discrimination. Through this process, you can deepen your understanding of yourself, build more fulfilling relationships, and move toward a more authentic way of living."
