LGBTQ+ Issues
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.

LGBTQIA+ & Queer-Affirming Care
Living Authentically Beyond the Binary and the Burden
In a society that often demands conformity, the act of living authentically as a queer, trans, or non-binary individual is both a triumph and a labor. I provide a specialized, deeply affirming space where your identity is not a "topic to be managed," but a sacred part of your humanity. With my background in the QTAP Certification Training, I offer more than just "tolerance"—I offer a high-level clinical understanding of the unique stressors and joys inherent in the LGBTQIA+ experience.
Navigating the Minority Stress System
We don't just look at your internal world; we use Systems Theory to address how the external world impacts your mental health. We work through:
Minority Stress & Burnout: Addressing the chronic exhaustion that comes from navigating heteronormative and cisnormative systems.
Internalized Shame: Deconstructing the "inner critic" shaped by religious or social constructs of inequity.
The "Coming Out" Evolution: Supporting the ongoing process of disclosure with family, workplace, and spiritual communities.
For Individuals & Couples: Queer-Specific Relational Care
Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Attachment Theory, I help LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples build secure, resilient bonds:
Chosen Family & Community: Exploring the vital role of non-traditional support systems in your healing.
Navigating Transition: Providing clinical support for individuals and their partners through the emotional and systemic shifts of gender transition.
Spiritual Deconstruction: With my Master of Divinity, I provide a rare sanctuary for queer individuals to process spiritual trauma and reclaim a sense of meaning without sacrificing their identity.
Affirming Your Narrative
Whether you are navigating rejection sensitivity from family, seeking letters for gender-affirming care, or simply want a therapist who understands the nuances of queer life without you having to explain them, I am here.
"The healing space generated between therapist and client is one of the greatest honors of my life." In this space, you are seen, you are safe, and you are celebrated.

16 Years Experience
Online in Fayetteville, NC North Carolina (Online Only)
Fayetteville is home to Fort Liberty (formerly Fort Bragg) — one of the largest Army installations in the world — making it one of the most military-oriented cities in the United States, with a therapy community substantially defined by the needs of active-duty soldiers, veterans, and military families. Therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, moral injury, combat-related grief, and the dynamics of repeated deployment and reintegration are exceptionally well represented, and many practices are built specifically around the military community. Cape Fear Valley Health provides institutional mental health resources alongside a VA medical center that serves the surrounding region. Fayetteville's civilian therapy community serves a population that also navigates the economic and social challenges of a city heavily dependent on military spending and vulnerable to base realignment decisions.
