Erika Barrington
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, BC-DMT
I am a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and because of how I've felt in my own therapy over the years, it has always been a priority to me to make sure I'm offering an affirming space for this community. I spent time working as a peer counselor in my local LGBTQIA+ community center and was a supervisor there for a short time; worked as a camp counselor for trans youth; completed a year-long training program on offering trans-affirming care in therapy. I do utilize my own experience to understand what clients might be feeling and needing, but its also important to me to value the way that sexuality and gender are diverse experiences based on race, class, country of origin, culture, and so many other factors. I never assume that my experience will be just the same as someone else, and keep an eye out for the ways that my privilege might have insulated me as a queer, genderqueer person. I believe that our society's restrictive/oppressive views about sexuality and gender are impacted by patriarchy, white supremacy, and capitalism, so I hold this truth when understanding how a client may have internalized certain beliefs, and where the responsibility lies. For example, I would not ever blame a client for internalized homophobia, transphobia, but instead bring curiosity to environment, historical trends, and how we can work towards more internal liberation.

Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
It's hard to be queer, gay, trans, or otherwise gender-and-sexuality expansive in a world that (increasingly) doesn't accept you for you who you are, thinks you're "making a choice," or quite frankly doesn't want you to exist. As a queer-identified therapist, I understand what a major difference it can make to have support people in your life, AND I know that not everyone has those people. By specializing in working with the queer community, I have made it my goal to create an open, honest, and truly (not performatively) supportive space where you can be who you are and bring what you really need support with to the table. Whether it's exploring your identities, finding community, setting boundaries with challenging people who don't accept you, exploring gender-affirming care, or showing up authentically in relationships, I can help.
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Whether or not sexuality issues are the main focus of therapy, you can expect an affirming and supportive therapist and environment. Societal/cultural/religious values around sexuality create mental stressors that evolve throughout the life cycle and can prevent a person from fully experiencing that they are capable of.
