Dr. Wayne Bullock
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd
Identifying within a minority group creates a host of stresses, along with all of the other challenges of life. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ persons and understand the aggressions, micro and otherwise, that face these communities. I also understand the pressures that can arise from internalized messages from a heteronormative society. You deserve a space where you can unpack all of your feelings about these, as well as construct your narrative of who you are and where you want to be in life.
15 Years Experience
Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
I approach LGBT issues with heartfelt understanding and a deep commitment to providing a safe, affirming space. I recognize the unique challenges and emotional complexities that can arise from navigating identity, societal pressures, and personal relationships within the LGBT community. I aim to offer a haven of acceptance and support, where each individual can explore their authentic self without fear or judgment. Together, we'll work towards healing from past hurts, embracing your true identity, and building a life filled with self-acceptance, pride, and joy. It's a journey of discovering one's strength and beauty in a world that is learning to celebrate diversity in all its forms.
