Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
Navigating coming out, identity exploration, minority stress, family rejection, or the unique challenges that can arise in queer, trans, or non-heteronormative relationships takes courage and support. I provide an affirming, kink- and trans-friendly space to process these experiences, reduce the weight of shame or external pressure, and build authentic connections—with yourself and with partners. Whether you’re working on individual identity, relationship dynamics, or creating the kind of intimacy that truly fits who you are, therapy here honors all parts of you.

Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
Being LGBTQ+ can mean building a life, family, and community in ways that others may take for granted. IT can mean navigating rejection, estrangement, relationships that don't fit traditional expectations, or losses that others don't fully recognize. As a gay psychologist, I bring both professional experience and personal understanding of queer life to our work. You shouldn't have to explain why your chosen family matter or educate your therapist about the basics of your experience before getting to what you really need to talk about. You get to show up as yourself, talk about what's actually going on, and figure out what you want your life to look like from here.

A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
You deserve a space where you can explore who you are without feeling like you have to explain, minimize, or defend yourself. I provide affirming therapy for LGBTQ+ clients navigating concerns such as identity, relationships, self-esteem, family dynamics, boundaries, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the impact of rejection or difficult past experiences. Therapy can be a place to untangle other people’s expectations from your own wants and needs, strengthen your relationship with yourself, and explore what living authentically means to you. My goal is to provide a supportive space where every part of you is welcome and you can feel empowered to build a life and relationships that feel genuine to who you are.
