Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
As a queer, nonbinary individual, I have a soft spot for the LGBTQ++ community and about half my clients identify as sexual or gender diverse. As a university professor, I enjoy working within a professional setting to show students that you can be accepted, celebrated, successful, etc. as a queer and gender nonconforming professional.

Lisa J. Taylor
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are struggling to find joy or peace in any of your important relationships, please know that help and support are available! As a relationship therapist, I am committed to creating an affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals, couples, and families, as well as for those in non-traditional relationships. I also welcome the opportunity to work with clients who are experiencing conflict about adapting to a child or other family member's change in expressed identity, such as when a family member shares that they are gay or trans. Differences in worldview can make it difficult to adjust to learning this new information, but I am here to help you understand and find new ways to connect to your loved one.

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.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a member of the LGBT community, and as someone who holds degrees both in psychology and LGBT Health and Policy, I couple an academic understanding of the unique disparities that come with these identities with a profound personal knowledge of them in my own life. Not all patients have had positive experiences with the medical community, so it is my hope that my education and bisexual identity will serve my patients in a way that makes them feel both heard and seen. I also recognize that our identities can be static, or they can be fluid, and that the coming out process isn’t something we do just once: we do it over and over again. I do not personally identify as cisgender, and so I approach the issues facing the transgender, nonbinary, genderqueer, and gender non-conforming communities with deep empathy and personal understanding. From fluidity to transitioning, hormone replacement therapy, to writing letters for surgery, I am committed to supporting my clients on their journeys. Not everyone experiences their own gender in the same way, so the discussion of gender as a construct and societal gender norms is at the forefront of our discussions in working through the big mess that is gender.
