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.

Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an Internal Family Systems perspective, LGBTQ+ issues often involve parts shaped by experiences of stigma, rejection, or the need to hide aspects of identity for safety. Protective parts may manage this by people-pleasing, hypervigilance, or self-criticism, while more vulnerable parts carry shame, fear, or longing for acceptance. Therapy supports clients in accessing Self to compassionately relate to these parts, fostering integration, authenticity, and a stronger sense of internal and relational safety.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hi! Scary world out there, huh? I don't know about you, but it feels like since Obergefell v. Hodges things have been getting scarier and scarier for our community. If you're feeling anxious, exhausted, outrage fatigued, sad, or any of the other big feels that makes so much sense! Let's give you a space to process that and build the skills that you need to be able to thrive. In a world like this, our most powerful resistance is to choose joy in the face of oppression.
