Stigma-free, affirming therapy for LGBTQIA+ Individuals
Do you live outside of the heteronormative-cisgender box?
Have you been to other supposed “LGBTQ-friendly” counselors who had no idea what you were talking about?
Could you use a safe space to process your feelings and assess your goals?
Or maybe you’re seeking relationship counseling from someone who understands where you’re coming from.
If you can relate to any of the above, then you’ve come to the right place.
No judgments. No biases. Just a strong support system with open ears.
Stigma, in any form, is an impediment to the well-being of those who experience it. Given the stressors that LGBT groups must confront, such as homophobia, prejudice, coming out, and discrimination, finding a therapist who is openly LGBT-friendly or who specializes in LGBT issues is crucial to your personal growth.
As LGBTQIA+ affirming therapists, we are committed to helping clients of all genders, sexual identities and expressions feel not only safe, but truly respected.
If you or someone you know is seeking help from an LGBTQIA+ therapist, contact us today. we would be happy to speak with you about how we can help.

Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
I operate from lens of decolinization and anti-racism that informs the way I view, relate, and treat all people, including those within the LQBTQ community. I provide a non-judgemental space to talk about all aspects of sexual and gender identity and tend to conceptualize stress and suffering around sexual identity as a product of living within a homophobic/transphobic society rather than a function of internal pathology.
