Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
As a queer therapist, I am well versed in LGBTQIA+ issues and experiences and provide gender-affirming care based in both personal experience and professional education. I am a cis therapist holding a certificate in Affirmative Therapies for Transgender Communities and am intentional in continuing my education to provide high-quality care to trans and enby folks. One of my values as a cis therapist is to educate myself on trans issues so that my trans clients don’t have to. From it’s inception, my practice primarily works with queer and trans people of color.

Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
As a queer, nonbinary woman myself, I greatly enjoy supporting other members of the LGBTQIA+ community in exploring their sexual orientation and gender identity, navigating the process of coming out, and building relationships with people who are accepting and affirming of them. I have experience co-facilitating a therapy group for trans individuals as well as supporting those who are pursuing gender affirming medical care. I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ folks who are working to build their families.

Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
I have studied gender and sexuality spectrums since beginning my undergraduate career in 2005, largely as a result of my lived experiences with caregivers who were very polarized around topics of sex and gender. I consider myself an ally & serve a diverse client population with folks identifying across the LGBTQIA+ spectrum, as well as folks participating in kinky sex and ethical non-monogamy.
