Finley Anderson
Therapist, LMFT
Being LGBTQ+ in a world that hasn’t always affirmed you leaves a mark — even when things look fine on the outside. Whether you’re navigating coming out, processing family wounds, working through relationship challenges, or simply trying to feel at home in yourself, here you don’t have to explain or justify who you are.

Bonfire Healing - Bonnie Deopp, MS, LMHC, CN
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, CN, EMDR certified, Clinical Supervisor
Welcome, We're so glad you’re here! Bonfire Healing provides outpatient telehealth therapy with focus on complex mental health issues and developmental trauma along with co-occurring eating issues, addictions, chronic health conditions, nuerodiversity, and maladaptive behaviors. Our mission is to promote health equity through increasing access to evidence-based trauma treatment while utilizing insurance benefits so that this care is both high quality and affordable to more people as cost is the most common limiting factor for seeking therapy. We are well aware that for many of us in the LGBTQ+ community, the deepest wounds aren't just from personal events, but from systemic oppression and identity-based marginalization. We understand the struggle that in some circumstances the mental health field pathologizes or dismisses these experiences rather than acknowledging them as valid responses to an unjust world.

Ryan Shannon
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA, MA, MS
Being gay, lesbian, or bisexual can bring unique questions and pressures around identity, relationships, family, belonging, and feeling safe enough to be fully yourself. You may be exploring your sexuality, considering coming out, navigating dating or intimacy, coping with rejection, or trying to understand how past experiences have shaped the way you connect with others.
I especially welcome gay men, lesbian women, and bisexual people who want a supportive, affirming space to speak openly without judgment or assumptions. We can explore concerns related to self-acceptance, loneliness, attachment, relationship patterns, shame, family dynamics, and the challenge of finding meaningful connection.
My goal is to help you feel more secure in who you are, more confident expressing your needs, and better able to build relationships in which you feel respected, understood, and free to be yourself.
