San Diego, California therapist: Dr. Sven Schild, psychologist
LGBT Issues

Dr. Sven Schild

Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with LGBT issues involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). ACT helps clients embrace their identity and experiences, encouraging psychological flexibility and value-driven actions. EMDR is used to process and resolve trauma related to discrimination, rejection, or other negative experiences, fostering healing and resilience. SE addresses the physiological impacts of stress and trauma, helping clients release stored tension and restore balance. This comprehensive approach supports LGBT clients in navigating their unique challenges, promoting self-acceptance, and enhancing overall well-being.

Arlington, Virginia therapist: Peter Gould, psychologist
LGBT Issues

Peter Gould

Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist, I offer compassionate and effective treatment for members of the LGBTQ+ community. My approach, guided by evidence-based therapies, is tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. Coming out is a deeply personal and transformative experience that can significantly impact mental health, often leading to emotions such as anxiety and depression. Addressing these mental health considerations is crucial for ensuring a supportive and healthy journey. Individuals may struggle with feelings of isolation, difficulty revealing their true selves to family members, and defending their identity. My expertise extends beyond the coming-out process to include support for those who feel unsupported in their personal lives. I focus on helping clients feel more comfortable living authentically, navigate experiences of rejection, and gain a deeper understanding of their sexuality.

Washington, Washington, D.C. therapist: Dr. Caroline Hicks, psychologist
LGBT Issues

Dr. Caroline Hicks

Psychologist, PhD, LP
Sexual orientation and gender identity development are my areas of focus, and we use this space to make sure all intersecting identities (e.g., racial, religious, political, national) are considered as you find your authentic path in the world. This space is one where we can focus on your sexual orientation and/or gender identity development, or use these identities as a source of context to our work. In addition, I work with many trans*, non-binary, gender nonconforming, gender fluid, and other gender expansive folx as they embark on their path of congruence. In addition, I write letters of support for gender affirming surgeries/medical procedures.

Fairfax, Virginia therapist: Rachel W. Friendly, Ph.D., psychologist
LGBT Issues

Rachel W. Friendly, Ph.D.

Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
It can be so hard to find affirming, safe spaces where we can explore our whole, authentic selves - where we can truly be all of us, in our largeness, our messiness, and our queerness. And especially these days, gender expansiveness can feel particularly scary. Gender trauma is real - but living inauthentically is excruciating. I work with queer and gender expansive adults who want to live their truth and explore their identities, but who might not be sure where to start. We can dig in to what may be holding you back, so that you can start to craft your truest, most beautiful life. We can investigate the internalized messages that may lead to shame or self-doubt. And we can work on replacing those messages with self-compassion, curiosity, and self-love. Together, we can help you to become your truest, most beautiful self.
