Vibrant Heart Counseling, Devan Pope
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LCMHC
As an LGBTQ+ therapist, I understand the complexity of navigating identity in a world that often feels hostile to your existence. Whether you're questioning your gender or sexuality, processing what you already know to be true, working through the challenges of coming out or transitioning, or dealing with the accumulated weight of minority stress—you deserve a therapist who truly gets it. I'm here as someone who has walked this path, not to tell you who you are, but to support you in your own discovery and affirmation. In our work together, your identity will never be treated as a problem to solve. Instead, we'll address whatever you're actually facing: family dynamics, workplace challenges, healthcare navigation, internalized shame, relationship concerns, or mental health symptoms exacerbated by living in a world that wasn't designed for you. You can live a thriving, authentic life. I'm honored to support you in building it.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am an affirming therapist who is passionate about working with the LGBT population. Sometimes one's identity is central to the reasons they are seeking therapy and sometimes one identity is simply one contextual element. Either way, I strive to create a safe and comfortable setting where clients can talk openly about their concerns in a supportive environment.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of the LGBT+ community, my approach to treatment is rooted in cultural humility, affirming the diverse identities and experiences of each individual. Through a safe and inclusive therapeutic space, I provide affirmative therapy that validates clients' identities, experiences, and challenges they may face due to societal stigma and discrimination. Utilizing culturally competent and evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and interpersonal therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to address concerns related to coming out, family acceptance, relationship issues, and identity exploration. Additionally, I advocate for social support networks and community resources to facilitate connection and resilience. My goal is to empower LGBT+ individuals to navigate life authentically, foster self-acceptance, and thrive in their identities.

Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When bias and discrimination are part of a person's problems, I show them how not to anger themselves and then how to address the prejudice and discrimination constructively. In cases where people are shameful about their sexuality, I teach them how to unconditionally accept themselves and never to shame themselves for who they are and what they like both sexually and non-sexually.
