Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
As an LGBTQ+ person, you've probably gotten pretty good at figuring things out for yourself. But then life throws you a curveball you can't simply think your way through, problem-solve your way out of, or grit your teeth and muscle through forever.
Maybe you're grieving someone you lost - or something that others don't even recognize as a loss. Maybe your relationship has changed, your health isn't what it used to be, or you're caring for someone you love and wondering how much longer you can keep going. You may be functioning just fine on the outside, while feeling pretty damn exhausted on the inside.
I'm Dr. Weston Donaldson, a gay psychologist and founder of Proud Heart Therapy Services, LLC. I help LGBTQ+ adults coping with grief, loss, trauma, and complicated transitions that come with getting older. Being part of the queer community means I bring a familiarity with our relationships, chosen families, histories, and experiences that can make these challenges more complex. You shouldn't have to spend your therapy sessions explaining why your relationships matter or why a particular loss has hit you so hard.
For me, the magic sauce of therapy is relationship. You can bring the messy feelings, the contradictions, the things you're not sure you're supposed to say out loud. My job isn't to tell you how you should feel or hand you a generic set of coping skills. It's to help you understand what's happening, reconnect with your own wisdom, and figure out what you want your life to look from here on out.
You don't have to stop grieving, have everything figured out, or know exactly what you need before reaching out. If you're tired of going through this time alone, let's talk. I'd be glad to hear what's going on and see whether we're a good fit.

Allyson Eggleton with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
I believe we all hold the capacity to heal within ourselves—sometimes it just takes the right space and support to uncover it. My work is grounded in empathy and curiosity, creating a space to explore the emotions, thoughts, and patterns that shape your experiences. Together, we’ll identify your values, build confidence, and develop coping skills and self-trust that support lasting healing and balance. My practice supports individuals of all ages, with a special focus on helping adolescents and young adults navigate transitions, strengthen self-esteem, and develop a clearer sense of self.
As a therapist and former Division I athlete, I understand the desire to grow while carrying life’s many demands. I’m also passionate about working with athletes as they explore the connection between performance, identity, and mental health, drawing on my own experience with the pressures of striving for excellence—on and off the field, water, rink, etc.
Outside of therapy, I coach high school rowing and find meaning in helping athletes strengthen both body and mind. As a native New Englander, time in nature grounds me, and thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail in 2022 deepened my appreciation for resilience, presence, and the quiet power of taking things one step at a time.

Misty Nomberto with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
Life can be unpredictable and overwhelming. Whether you're going through a faith shift, relationship change, are navigating your personal identity or are dealing with aging, grief or trauma, you can benefit from support. You want to feel understood, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence. You may benefit from tools that help you heal, make sense of it all and feel empowered.
I offer a warm, supportive space where we’ll use tools like DBT, EMDR, ACT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing to help you feel more grounded, resilient and empowered. I work with folks moving through grief, trauma, addiction recovery, faith shifts, aging, dementia, and identity transitions, including within the LGBTQIA+ community.
You don’t have to go through this alone. I’m here to create a safe, supportive space where your experiences are heard and your healing is prioritized. Whether you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or just need someone to walk beside you, therapy can help you find clarity and build the life you want. I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You may be accomplished, capable, and the person others rely on, yet still find yourself overthinking, second-guessing, or feeling like what you do is never quite enough. I offer thoughtful, engaged therapy that goes beyond simply managing symptoms to understand the patterns, relationships, and experiences that keep you stuck. With nearly nearly 20 years of experience, I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and inclusive space where people of all identities and backgrounds are welcomed and respected.
