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.

Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC
We provide affirming, trauma-informed therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals navigating identity development, relationships, family dynamics, mental health concerns, and the impact of stigma or discrimination. We recognize that LGBTQ+ experiences are shaped not only by personal journeys, but also by social, cultural, and systemic factors that can affect safety, belonging, and well-being.
Our clinicians create a space where clients can show up fully and authentically—without needing to educate, defend, or minimize their experiences. We support adolescents and adults exploring coming out, self-acceptance, gender identity, intimacy, grief, faith-related conflict, and resilience in the face of marginalization.
LGBTQ+ counseling at Full Being Services is strengths-based, culturally responsive, and rooted in affirmation—supporting healing, empowerment, and wholeness across every stage of life.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Navigating life as an LGBTQ+ person can come with unique challenges—identity exploration, family dynamics, relationships, societal pressures, or simply the need for a space where you don’t have to explain or defend who you are. Whether you’re questioning, coming out, healing from past experiences, or looking for support in living authentically, you deserve a therapist who understands and affirms your identity. In therapy, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where all identities, orientations, and expressions are respected and celebrated. Together, we’ll explore what you’re facing with compassion and clarity—whether it’s anxiety, relationship stress, self-acceptance, or the impact of invalidating environments. My goal is to help you feel grounded, empowered, and supported as you navigate your life on your own terms. You deserve to feel seen, valued, and fully yourself.

Beyond the therapy room, we are proud to provide streamlined, identity-affirming support for those seeking gender-affirming surgery letters, ensuring that your path to living congruently is met with advocacy rather than gatekeeping.
